The Spin

Pro-establishment narrative

The US is always relieved to see freed hostages. However, a cease-fire agreement will ensure increased humanitarian aid to the besieged enclave, the release of all Israeli hostages, and create a better "day after" in Gaza without Hamas in power. The US will continue to work toward closing the gaps and ensuring that peace and stability can be restored to the region.

Pro-Israel narrative

Al-Qadi's rescue is a powerful reminder of Israel's moral stance in freeing those kidnapped by Hamas terrorists on Oct. 7. Indeed, Israelis have something to celebrate, and al-Qadi's rescue demonstrates Israel's strong pluralistic society. Netanyahu's strategy of securing hostages while negotiating is working.

Pro-Palestine narrative

Though this rescue did not lead to massive Palestinian casualties, Israel's genocidal campaign in Gaza has only endangered the lives of both Palestinians and the hostages. Even Noa Argamani, who was freed in June, said that Israeli attacks on Gaza caused her injuries. The only way Israel will be able to rescue the rest of the hostages and not kill any additional ones is via a cease-fire agreement.
