There are hundreds, if not thousands, of people getting killed every day in this war. Why are the lives of a few hostages more important than the others?

Read the parable of the prodigal son. You may not agree with the tradeoff, or the reasoning, but there is a reasoning that the Israeli government is following in taking the deal. All of those hostages were lost without an uncertain rescue. Gaining some of them is like bringing them back to life.

“”You may not agree with the tradeoff, or the reasoning, but there is a reasoning that the Israeli government is following in taking the deal.”

The reason is very simple - Biden gave Netanyahu an ultimatum... Agree to the deal or we’ll pull our support.

Israel is a vassal state of the US, so when push comes to shove they do what the US wants them to do. If they lose the US support they have nowhere else to turn.
