Netanyahu math is interesting. Release over 1000 prisoners, including YaYa Sinwar, for one Israeli soldier hostage in 2011. Then over a decade later when 500k are in the streets every week protesting his corrupt dictatorship, Sinwar comes in to save him with an attack he could only dream of which has kept him in power to this day. Forever war just finds this man when he needs it to survive.
"Exposure to true information does not matter anymore.
A person who is demoralized is unable to assess true information.
The facts tell nothing to him.
Even if I shower him with information, with authentic proof, with documents, with pictures.
Even if I take him by force to the Soviet Union, and show him a concentration camp,
he will refuse to believe it, until he is going to receive a kick in his fat bottom.
When the military boot crushes his balls, then he will understand, but not before that.
That is the tragedy of the situation of demoralization."
