Knowing that hostage negotiations have failed completely because Hamas refuses to budge from its demands that Israel leaves completely, Hamas remain in power, the world rebuilds Gaza, and only then will they start any hostage negotiations (and these maximalist demands are a non starter for Israel); and knowing Israel has done nothing but find dead hostages for months, and this may be the last chance to retrieve any live hostages; do you think Israel should have just passed on the rescue attempt because the risk for collateral damage was too high?
