Where are the #FreeTheHostages people now?

Don't they have empathy for the kidnapped volunteers of #FreedomFlotilla?

Does anyone care about their safety and well being?

The "free the hostages folks" are usually anti-zionist. And, yeah, they want these hostages free, and the majority of the hostages are Palestinians

Sorry, seems like you have 0 clue what you're talking about, so I'll fill you in.

"Free the hostages" was the tagline used by Zionists and Zionist sympathizers following October 7th, because HAMAS took multiple Israeli citizens hostage.

It has nothing to do with freeing the Palestinians.
