      “I went through hell,” Lifshitz said at a hospital in Tel Aviv early Tuesday.

      Her captors beat her in the ribs with sticks, she said, making it difficult to breathe. She was visibly exhausted and physically worn. But she told reporters that she offered the handshake because the Hamas militants “were gentle with us” while she was imprisoned in the “spiderweb” of tunnels under the Gaza Strip.

      Stockholm Syndrome textbook example right there. Kidnapped and beaten by Hamas, but thanked them afterwards.

      I don’t know where you’re getting anything from that article that says Hamas wants to return hostages. This was part of the ceasfire agreement Hamas broke.
