- A Chicago-area mom abducted by Hamas during its Oct. 7 attack on Israel said her captors were greeted as heroes when she and her daughter arrived as hostages at a Gaza hospital.
“You don’t know if you’re going to be dead or alive,” Judith Raanan told NewsNation’s Elizabeth Vargas in her first TV interview since the ordeal.
Raanan and her now 18-year-old daughter Natalie were the first hostages to be released by Hamas after the Oct. 7 attack. Read the full story: www.newsnationnow.com/vargasr... #israelhamaswar #Hostages #Gaza
Woman gets kidnapped at gunpoint, starved, imprisoned, stopped from taking medication, beaten, stopped from fixing an injury from the beating, is traumatized from the experience to the point where she can't speak about certain things without crying. But everyone in the comments is, "see how well they were treated by their captors?" Y'all have problems. Seek therapy.
🩵💔💔💔💔💔💔
right ?!! even if they had been treated well- which of course we know they weren't and still aren't- the fact ALONE that they were kidnapped and were /are hostages is unacceptable in itself !!! People are so blind and so off, it's mindboggling !!!
They shall call good evil; evil good.
@@arlenegojocco7518 tragically so, more and more of it is happening, here and more
This war has exposed just how terrible people are.
Wow very strong mom! God bless you mom!🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
God Bless her. So much misery 😢 and she remains strong. God Bless Israel
God bless you and your daughter. You are very brave.
Am Israel Hai ! Thank you Judith
Thank God they are home. One can only imagine the horrors unspoken. Hamas is pure evil.
Lack of evidence is not evidence...
@@mr.giggles4995there is evidence, you’re purposely ignoring.
@@mr.giggles4995 no need for evidence Hamas posted it all on their own website that day and the days to follow. It's not our fault you n@zis aren't that bright. That's all on you.
@@mr.giggles4995 🙈
the evidence is Overwhelming as is the hatred of the fools who support and try to defend the psychopaths of Hamas !
The Israeli people are such beautiful brave people 😍 truly God's chosen nation 🙏 standing with and praying for Israel 🇮🇱 🙏 ❤️ from a Christian in South Africa 🇮🇱 🙏 ❤️ 🇿🇦
They were the chosen people, but they rejected Jesus as the Messiah, that's why they are suffering and will continue suffering until they accept Jesus Christ the Messiah as described in Isiah 53
@@romanticman2548 The Lord will bring then back to Him and they will accept Jesus as their Messiah.
Am Israel Chai thank you Judith... God bless you and your precious daughter
Red Cross is shameful.
That reporter is disgusting . The hostage told herb3-4 times !!! She got nothing from hama terrorists
Im not sure what you write, but i DO agree this reporter wasnt especially good.
All the very best to heal , be happy and stay well 🙏🙏🙏🙏❤️🇮🇱🇮🇱🇮🇱🇮🇱🇮🇱🇮🇱🇮🇱
shame she is extremely traumatised -
yes. she typically for the israeli hostages, is composed, talks normally, no wailing, but its clear she is deeply shaken, barely holding together.
@@barneydenstad2148Israelis don't wail! Especially therapist Israelis.
GOD Bless what faith in God Am Yisrael Chai💙🙏🏻💯
“The Heart of God is Golden”
But why god didnt have golden heart on oct 7th when terrorist attacked?
@@arjunkc3227 Yeah, this is an example of Teodicé-dilemma... Evil and bad things do happen. Humans are allowed and encouraged to try to prevent bad things happen (that is why there are so many jewish doctors, scientists, advocats, even politicians ) - but they still happen, in different variations.
@@arjunkc3227 Read the Holy Bible.
Thank you for your Grace God
Every single person in Gaza doesn’t get medication not just her
The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want.
2 He maketh me to lie down in green pastures: he leadeth me beside the still waters.
3 He restoreth my soul: he leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for his name's sake.
4 Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil: for thou art with me; thy rod and thy staff they comfort me.
5 Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies: thou anointest my head with oil; my cup runneth over.
6 Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life: and I will dwell in the house of the Lord for ever. Psalm 23
Am Yisrael Chai!
It's very sad to involve Russia in that.💯
Who involved Russia?
This, is truly a tragic saga, that Yahya Sinwar and his co-conspirators are as much CAPTIVES in those dreadful tunnels, suffering far greater fear of death than anyone can imagine. peaceful sleep is a thing of the past. darkness is not only physical but everlasting because death is certain. Torture is by their own hands as the heat and lack of fresh clean air are self inflicted. Never again to enjoy the closeness of family, friends, loved ones.
It is truly sad that life that holds soooo much promise and life that is afforded to every human being with so much beauty, purpose, fun, so much possibility, all given to every man FREELY by our GREAT CREATOR, can be looked on with such disdain, hatred, so little or no appreciation...and aaaaah ! WHEN JESUS COMES......THEN ...............this precious life shall be forever ! WHAT A BLISSFUL REALISATION !
Ah, Yahya Sinwar as long he is alive, can always hope and wait on his 72 underage virgins.
Let the hostages go home and they are also free! Who started this? Sinwar - war - started this along with his minions Hamass.
Isaiah 29
Amplified Bible
Jerusalem Is Warned
29 Woe (judgment is coming) to [a]Ariel, to Ariel, the city where David [once] camped!
Add [b]yet another year; let the feasts run their course [but only one year more].
2
Then I will harass Ariel,
And she will be a city of mourning and lamenting (crying out in grief)
Yet she will be like an [c]Ariel [an altar hearth] to Me.
3
I will camp against you and encircle you,
And I will hem you in with siege works,
And I will raise fortifications against you.
4
Then you [Jerusalem] will be brought low,
You will speak from the earth,
And from the dust where you lie face down
Your muffled words will come.
Your voice will also be like that of a spirit from the earth [like one produced by a medium],
And your speech will whisper and squeak from the dust.
5
But the multitude of your enemies [that assault you] will become like fine dust,
And the multitude of the tyrants like the chaff which [d]blows away;
And it will happen in an instant, suddenly [that your enemy is destroyed].
6
You will be punished by the Lord of hosts with thunder and earthquake and great noise,
With whirlwind and tempest and the flame of a consuming fire.
7
And the multitude of all the nations that fight against Ariel (Jerusalem),
Even all who fight against her and her stronghold, and who distress her,
Will be like a dream, a vision of the night.
8
It will be as when a hungry man dreams
That he is eating,
But when he awakens, his [e]hunger is not satisfied;
Or as when a thirsty man dreams
That he is drinking,
But when he awakens, in fact, he is faint
And his thirst is not quenched.
So will the multitude of all the nations be
Who fight against Mount Zion.
9
Stop and take some time and wonder [at this prophecy],
Blind yourselves and be blinded [at its fulfillment by your spiritual incompetence].
They are drunk, but not from wine;
They stagger, but not from strong drink.
10
For the Lord has poured over you a spirit of deep sleep.
He has closed your eyes, [you who are] the prophets;
And He has covered your heads, [you who are] the seers.
11 The entire vision [of all these things] will be to you like the words of a scroll that is sealed, which they give to one who can read, saying, “Read this, please,” he shall say, “I cannot, for it is sealed.” 12 Then the book will be given to the one who cannot read, saying, “Read this, please.” And he will say, “I cannot read.”
13 Then the Lord said,
“Because this nation approaches [Me only] with their words
And honors Me [only] with their lip service,
But they remove their hearts far from Me,
And their reverence for Me is a tradition that is learned by rote [without any regard for its meaning],
14
Therefore, listen carefully, I will again do marvelous and amazing things with this people, wonderful and astonishing things;
And the wisdom of their wise men will perish,
And the understanding of their discerning men will be hidden.”
15
Woe (judgment is coming) to those who [try to] deeply hide their plans from the Lord,
Whose deeds are done in a dark place,
And who say, “Who sees us?” or “Who knows us?”
16
You turn things upside down [with your perversity]!
Shall the potter be considered equal with the clay,
That the thing that is made would say to its maker, “He did not make me”;
Or the thing that is formed say to him who formed it, “He has no understanding”?
Blessing after Discipline
17
Is it not yet a very little while
Until Lebanon will be turned into a fertile field,
And the fertile field regarded as a forest?
18
On that day the deaf will hear the words of a book,
And out of their gloom and darkness the eyes of the blind will see [the words of the book].
19
The afflicted also will increase their joy in the Lord,
And the needy of mankind will rejoice and celebrate in the Holy One of Israel.
20
For the tyrant will come to an end and the scorner will be finished,
Indeed all who are intent on doing evil will be cut off-
21
Those who cause a person to be condemned with a [false] word,
And lay a trap for him who upholds justice at the [city] gate,
And defraud the one in the right with meaningless arguments.
22 Therefore, the Lord, who redeemed Abraham [from paganism] says this, concerning the house of Jacob (Israel):
“Jacob will not be ashamed, nor will his face turn pale [with disappointment because of his children’s degenerate behavior];
23
For when he sees his children, the work of My hands, in his midst,
They will sanctify My Name;
They will sanctify the Holy One of Jacob
And will stand in awe and reverent fear of the God of Israel.
24
“Those who err in mind will know the truth,
And those who criticize and murmur discontentedly will accept instruction.
Gosh
Where's Allah 🤷♂️👀🤔
The same place where the other Gods were during the Holocaust. In our imaginations. It is very vile to say what you just said, implying the Gazans are godless because were are allowing the Jews to kills them. You a pos.
Whoever expects safety in a land that has been usurped by force is a fool
Israel has existed for over 4,000 years! There is no Palestinian people, they are arabs from Egypt and Jordan who settled in the land of Israel, and they are the occupiers. Why don’t you read the Holy Bible and learn some true history.
@@claudia-lc1cf ok Arabs and palastinians what، The original inhabitants were not from Egypt and Jordan FYI they were the Canaanites
Sh*t why I talk with Nazis IsIs Zionist
What force?
Of course sympathise with her as an innocent hostage but are we not going to mention the 5000 captive prisoners with no charge... tortured, beaten, killed and sexually and mentally abused.. no colouring pens and paints
Shut up
You really are deluded
Wait... Hanas gave them art supplies? I know they allowed one hostage to keep her pet. That's been verified, but art supplies!!! She even admitted they were in a tiny room without electricity. How did they see? The first clip gave me pause, but this clip...I don't want to be rude😅 The captor who told you to walk or I'll shoot you, was willing to give your daughter art supplies to calm her anxiety. Yeah, imma go ahead and move along😂😂😂
It seems SOME of the guards were almost human compared to others. I have myself noticed several examples, including 7 / 10. And yes, the pet is confirmed, there are photos when she and the dog are released.
Because so many of the people were held hostages by " citizens "from gaza, remember thousands from gaza crossed and comitted crimes too,😎🤷🤷♀️ besides hamas,jihadist participants ,many were sold or delivered to leaders of hamas and they kept them lock in the " civilians " homes ,others in the tunnels ( mostly men and soldiers ) ,according to the released hostages many of their captors were regular civilians 🤷🤷♀️
@@MariaRoseGonzalez Yes. A little amusing anecdote here. One propalestinian forumist wailed palestinian civilians too were killed 7 / 10. So it was almost even. My comment. Sure. but he missed the whole point. The only way for Gaza civilians to be killed 7 / 10 were if they too participated in the assault on Israeli villages... And when IDF com in force with rescue including helicopters - of course many of them died. Most of the regular Hamas had probably evacuated at this time, leaving these free swords to keep the positions.
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
No rape allegations to be heard, which good for many reasons. It was a vile accusation, to facilitate the genocide of Gazans. No rapes happened, or are happening to Gaza hostages.
You are in denial! We all saw the pictures and heard the stories.
@@PeaceLoveHappiness7719 If that is true, woe to my soul. Show me.
@@eraldylli what about Shani whose legs were broken in that truck. How do you suppose that happened. Why would any woman lie. HAMAS gave orders to rape, kill, etc.
You are sick for trying to justify what happened to her.
We have videos of gruesom rapes that hamas took by them selfs. and the mutilated bodies of the 1200 deads forensicly checked, they even raped mans. a bit of respect for the families
I’m sick of hearing from israelis. Interview Palestinians help Palestinians.
Free free palastain
Yes free free , from Hamas and other jihadist groups ,when that happen the arab countries around gaza,west bank and israel can work for a peace treaty ,long peace ,both nations deserve to exist ,live in peace in prosperity ,palestinian state and israeli state ,praying to jesus and holly mary ,amen!!!
Never.
Now interview a Palestinian held without charges who was released
Uhm there was 3 times more prisoners released then hostages. It was the worst deal I've ever seen. What the hell is that shit? 10 hostages for a hundred prisoners? I would not have accepted that but Im not a bleeding heart loser like some of you. Palestine would be a parking lot by now if I were in charge. There are no more Israeli hostages in Gaza.
Hostages that are 9 months baby, 4 years old toddlers, 8, 9 years old children teenagers 70, 80 years old elders are totally different from people that are in jail for crimes because they broke the laws.
The people in jail are well treated according to international laws. If you want details you can do it. Ask the International Organizacion that is in charge and supervise it.
You can ask the news to interview them.
Really?
Great, now watch the videos of the doctors kept captive by Israel
they got visits from the red cross, medications, surgery if needed (not by a veterinarian) they got food and freedom of mouvements at least to the toilettes an they get to study. palestinians that are in jail in Israel have commited crimes, most murders.
if you don't know wacht the news. Nobody is stopping you. Why do you ask this channel about others information?
Why don't you wacht the news? Nobody is stopping you. Why do you ask this channel about others information..?
@caropeter7077 obviously you haven't seen the Israeli videos then, or you did and your humanity shrank to an ant level
@@sarvimaglo12349 I'm actually watching both news; are you?
I’m sorry for my country (Australia) we or rather our foreign minister,PENNY BONG’sends Hamas millions,for this most Australians apologies
bloccami ma la verità è questa
For once the truth is coming thru. Imagine Palestinians in Israel prisons have that oppertunity. Although it is not said so in many words but they were treated with a little respect. Read between the lines. Why would they be treated any better when the gazans were going thru the same challenges no food no medication. If hamas had any they would definitely have received 5 star treatment. 😅
Hammas steals all the aid tons and tons given to the gazans. Hammas has plenty of free food and I saw the red cross over there talking and giving to Hammas. Tell your lies to someone stupid enough to believe them.
Do you mean for example the way Israel saved Sinwar's life when he was in an Israeli jail by getting him a top surgeon when he had a brain tumor?
@@user-oz7hu3sb8l That is ridiculous, I don't know if what your saying is true, regardless No I wouldn't let a most prisoners have a excellent brain surgeon
@@lynnewright31 It happened in 2008. There is plenty of proof.
You’re sick
Live in Palestina from 80 years old was like a concentration champ... nazists...
