Families of U.S. citizens held hostage by Hamas urge the Biden administration to 'do more' and plead for information

Relatives of U.S. citizens feared to have been taken hostage by Hamas urged the Biden administration Tuesday to help free their loved ones, saying they had yet to receive “formal communication” from the White House.

Rachel Goldberg, the mother of Hersh Goldberg-Polin, 23, said at a news conference here that the last words she received from her son came in a message telling her he loved her and that he was “sorry.”

Goldberg-Polin was among thousands of revelers when Hamas terrorists descended on a music festival Saturday, leaving at least 260 people dead and taking an unknown number of attendees hostage.

Goldberg said she heard from witnesses that part of her son’s arm was “blown off” before he was taken by the militants, who ordered anyone who could to “stand up and walk.”

Just to be blatantly insensitive, are these people bankers? Seems like their motto is fuck around and expect a bailout.

What do they want here? Iran has demonstrated that trying to mount an invasion to liberate hostages by force from Islamists does not end well.

The only way they’re getting “more” is if they make peace with losing their loved ones in exchange for pushing an invasion of Gaza to round up as many Hamas leaders as can be grabbed to give them the hostage treatment in revenge.

Not to be insensitive, what they are going through is terrible, but more what? The US Secretary of State is over in Israel now. Are they expecting a US invasion of Palestine? That’s pretty much what is shaping up by proxy of IDF actions. Are they mad that they haven’t been personally contacted by the white house? Asking for “more” without actually specifying anything inevitably means send in military force which usually makes these situations worse for the hostages.

This was my initial reaction too. I get that you are probably a mess right now, but a whole fucking lot is being done. And just doing for the sake of doing is reactionary and leads to poor choices being made.
