ALBAWABA - The Hamas military wing Al-Qassam Brigades published a video today showcasing Israeli-American detainee Aidan Alexander. The captive recounts his plight, pleads for rescue, and addresses Netanyahu and Trump in the video.
Alexander, jailed in Gaza for 420 days, criticized Israeli leadership. He told Netanyahu, "I heard you on the television offering $5 million to revive us, but what about protecting us as citizens and soldiers? You neglected us." He said he lived in fear, "Our guards gave us army response instructions. Nobody cares that we die a thousand times a day."
The hostage also urged Israelis to protest. "Do not ignore us. We wish to return mentally healthy. Isolation and fear destroy us. He said to constantly pressure the administration to halt this nightmare.
Alexander also asked President-elect Trump to intervene. "I am an American-Israeli prisoner in Gaza. I trust U.S. authority and want you to negotiate our release. He stated every day felt like an eternity here.
Critiquing Biden, he said, "Avoid his mistakes. His weapons and siege are killing and destroying us. I don't want to be Hirsch, an American."
The video ended with an emotional message to his family. Mom, Dad, Mika, Joey, Grandpa, Grandma, I miss you all. My everyday prayer is to meet you soon. This horror will end—stay strong."
Alexander was disturbed, often crying while conveying his extreme dread and pressure. He requested rapid relief.
In September, Al-Qassam published audio recordings of six Israeli detainees, including Hirsch Goldberg, whose corpses were found in a Rafah tunnel. The recordings denounced Israel and demanded prisoner exchange agreements as soon as possible.\
