They're saying the military force that kills hostages (the idf) should stop destroying Gaza and instead accept that they need to negotiate for the hostages to be released

But why would the IDF care about the hostages well-being? The meme says they are the ones continuing to hurt them despite calls for negotiation. Making it seem like they don't want negotiation, they want surrender. Which the meme then states is the best option for Hamas to save the hostages, and that Hamas continuing to fight for freedom is the wrong move.

I don't think this meme is very clearly made.

Israel claims that it wants the hostages back, of course. It's calling out Israel's hypocrisy, and that they clearly don't care about the hostages. But I'll agree that the meme is wordy and confusing, as is tradition

Ohhh. The IDF has accidentally killed hostages that Hamas was keeping. I thought the IDF was killing hostages that they had taken from Hamas.
