Hamas’ brutal attacks in Israel on October 7 killed at least 1,400 people and the group took more than 200 hostages, according to Israeli authorities. In the wake of the assault, Israel launched an aerial bombardment of Gaza that Palestinian health officials say has killed more than 5,000 people. Israel also announced a “complete siege” on the enclave, withholding vital supplies of water, food and fuel.

    I was merely quoting the original sum. I’d hazard a guess Israel would be willing to pay a lot more for each soldier considering only one of the Iron Dome missiles costs 47k$ or something.

      I doubt money is the most important need for a marginalized and oppressed people. Sounds like an alibi offer so people can’t say Bibi hasn’t tried something else than bombs. Especially that number seems laughably low as you yourself already pointed out. If this could work, they should be able to afford a lot more.

        Do you know where I pulled 10k number? It’s what people were offered to kill, rape and kidnap people. 10k and an apartment.
