The gunmen were demanding the
return of the bodies of Palestinians killed by Israeli troops, they said.

“We didn’t negotiate in any way with the gunmen that had the body,” an
IDF spokesperson said during a briefing. “We didn’t give anything in
return.

Would the Israelis admit it if they had negotiated?

They obviously have zero shame. They don't care who knows that they have been doing the very thing they are angry about.

Rules for thee, but not for me.

They wouldn't and if they did they wouldn't admit it. They (Palestinian militants) pull this shit every now and again. Israel doesn't hold bodies for ransom.

Bodies need to be repatriated.

They didn't just "seize" his body - they took this teenager off life support and literally murdered him. Then took the body to use as a bargaining chip.

What they did is fucking disgusting.
