Original Note:
The claim that what Hamas doing with hostages is humanity is false. Hostage-taking is a war crime per Article 8 of the Rome Statute. Targeting civilians during armed conflict is also a war crime. "No grievance can justify holding anyone hostage." - HRW https://www.hrw.org/news/2023/10/19/hamas-islamic-jihad-holding-hostages-war-crime
