EDITORIAL: No logic in US pressure on Israel to release terrorists
The American demand that Israel release Hamas terrorists from Rafah defies all logic.
If the stated goal is to dismantle Hamas, then why push for the release of the very terrorists that make up its ranks? Such pressure undermines Israel’s war effort and strengthens the message that terrorism pays off.
