Posters featuring the faces of 199 Israelis kidnapped by Hamas have been spotted in New York City and Lisbon. The posters, which depict missing men, women, and children, have been torn down at NYU by college students. The incidents have sparked controversy and raised concerns about the treatment of the hostages. The appearance of these posters in two major cities highlights the global attention on the issue and the ongoing efforts to raise awareness about the plight of the kidnapped Israelis.
bear witness strikes me that tearing down “KIDNAPPED” posters of civilians taken hostage by Hamas (at NYU) is on the wrong side of moral judgment why do it? to hide horror? to erase the innocent? to reduce sympathies? to minimize culpability? https://t.co/KfK2UGTeAq
