Netanyahu says the ‘supreme goal’ of the war is victory, not the return of the hostages
Bringing home the hostages is part of the victory, not the whole of it.
[IsraelTimes] Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu says there is a “superior objective” to bringing the hostages home in the war against Hamas.

“We have many goals, many goals in this war. We wantto bring all our hostages home, we’ve brought back so far 147 alive, and 196 total,” says Netanyahu in his comments at the annual Bible Contest in Jerusalem to mark Independence Day.

“There are another up to 24 alive, 59 total, and we want to return the living and the dead. It’s a very important goal. War has a supreme goal. The supreme goal is victory over our enemies, and this we will achieve.”
