Trump BYPASSES Netanyahu & Frees Last U.S. Hostage In Gaza! (Jimmy Dore)

An American-Israeli soldier held hostage for more than 19 months in the Gaza Strip was released by Hamas on Monday.

Edan Alexander, who is believed to be the last living U.S. citizen held captive in Gaza, was handed over to Red Cross representatives in the enclave’s southern city of Khan Younis.

The 21-year-old was then transfered to its special forces inside the Gaza Strip, the Israeli military said in a statement Monday. They subsequently returned him to Israel where “he will undergo an initial medical assessment and meet with his family,” the statement added. Pictures released by the IDF, showed a smiling Alexander hugging his parents Adi and Yael Alexander.

Jimmy and Americans’ Comedian Kurt Metzger discuss what it means that the Trump administration is not negotiating directly with Hamas and not using Israel as an intermediary.



The Israelis have also been targeting their own citizens in this conflict under a 'Hannibal' directive (to kill their own hostages).
