On Wednesday's broadcast of MSNBC's "The ReidOut," host Joy Reid stated that even though Hamas has refused to release any more of the hostages it took during the October 7 terrorist attack on Israel despite Israel offering another pause in fighting in exchange for the release of hostages like the one that existed until Hamas broke it by attacking Israel, the situation in Gaza is like Darfur and Rwanda, "But in this case, unlike in those cases, this feels like this is us doing it. The human misery is being funded by United States taxpayers."
