Hamas’s Qassam Brigades has threatened to execute Israeli captives if Israel continues to bombard and kill civilians in Gaza.

“Any targeting of innocent civilians without warning will be met regretfully by executing one of the captives in our custody, and we will be forced to broadcast this execution,” said Abu Obeida, a spokesman for Hamas’ Qassam Brigades.

“We regret this decision but we hold the Zionist enemy and their leadership the responsibility for this,” he said.

Hamas is open to discussions over a possible truce with Israel, having “achieved its targets”, a senior official has said.

Moussa Abu Marzouk told Al Jazeera in a phone interview that Hamas was open to “something of that sort” and to “all political dialogues” when asked whether the group is willing to discuss a possible ceasefire.

He also said that Hamas had captured “tens” of dual citizens from Israel, including those with Russian and Chinese citizenship.

As if this sitation didn't already have enough potential to go sideways.

Use this one weird trick to unite the world in your destruction. It’s super effective!

I think you mixed your memes. "Palestine uses Piss Off Every Nation! It's super effective!", or "Try this one weird trick to become radioactive. Hamas loves it!"

“achieved its targets”

Raping and killing a bunch of kids at a music festival, was that their targets all along? I am not a fan of the Israeli government, but these Hamas bastards need to be wiped off the Earth, they're as bad as ISIS.

Doesn't Israel have a huge number of dual citizens anyway? The whole right of return thing where you pretty much just have to be Jewish and they'll let you in so they can colonize more. And the parents of most born there too, so even then they're eligible for their parents dual citizens.

So that's kinda inevitable.

I don't know. I don't have a clue about citizenship requirements in Israel.
