Comment on In the Hamas/Israel war, why does Palestine have "hostages" but Israel has "prisoners"?
Ilovethebomb@lemm.ee 7 months agoHave Hamas even bothered to accuse them of a crime?

This isn’t the reason, it doesn’t matter if Hamas accuses them or not.
They’re considered hostages because Hamas wants to release them in exchange for something.
Israel imprisons Palestinian as a punishment or to achieve specific goals that are not met by releasing them (like preventing political prisoners from engaging with society).
I don’t think either term is morally superior to the other, but they do have some different connotations…
