Blaming Israel for Rescuing Its People

Wall Street Journal Header

Hamas hid four hostages in a crowded civilian area and fired on rescuers.

Itโ€™s rare good news in a grinding war. On Saturday Israeli commandos rescued four hostages from two civilian buildings near the heart of Gazaโ€™s Nuseirat market. It was a high-risk but well-planned and -executed mission that is a morale boost for Israelis.

Arnon Zamora was killed while leading the rescue mission at the head of his force. He will go down in history with Yoni Netanyahu, the fallen leader of Israelโ€™s 1976 raid to free hostages in Entebbe, Uganda.

Noa Argamani, age 26,ย Almog Meir Jan, 21,ย Andrey Kozlov, 27, andย Shlomi Ziv, 40, were all abducted during the music-festival massacre. Aย videoย showed Ms. Argamani begging for her life. Eight months later she heard a knock on the door: โ€œItโ€™s the IDF, weโ€™ve come to rescue you.โ€ She can now visit her terminally ill mother. Mr. Jan was mobbed on his return by friendsย chanting, โ€œHe is one of us, and we will never give him up,โ€ a refrain of sports teammates now given new meaning. Mr. Janโ€™s father died hours before his sonโ€™s return.

The non-surprise is that professional anti-Israel voices, United Nations officials and the European Union foreign-policy chief rushed to attack Israel. Egypt condemned the operation โ€œin the strongest terms.โ€ How dare Israel rescue its own citizens. Didnโ€™t it know there would be casualties? The BBC asked whether Israel gave a warning that the rescue raid was coming. Seriously? A tip-off to terrorists? Perhaps read them Miranda rights too.
