Israel-Hamas War: 9-Year-Old Hamas Hostage Comforts Her Father During Piers Morgan Interview

Piers Morgan Uncensored is joined by Thomas Hand, the British man who thought his nine-year-old daughter Emily had been killed by Hamas - before she was returned to him after 50 days in captivity with the terror group.
In this emotional interview, Piers Morgan asks Thomas how it felt to first think his daughter was dead, before discovering she was being held captive - and then how he reacted when she was finally released back to him.
Piers also informs Thomas of the two latest hostages to have been killed by Hamas, Yossi Sharabi and Itai Svirsky, discovering one of them was with Emily throughout her captivity.
Finally Piers asks Emily - who has wiped tears from her father's face throughout the interview - how she felt when she found out she was able to go home to her father.

How she wiped her father's tears, caressed and cared for him when he started to cry. Melted my heart❤

[@annolivares9865]

Yup she’s alive unlike thousands and thousands of Palestinian children

[@random6045]

Listen, I have compassion and love for all children, they are truly the most innocent and beautiful thing left in this world. But don't go blind to the strange numbers that Hamas tells. The IDF has been fighting there for more than three months, and has probably already killed more than 10,000 terrorists. Hamas states that there are more than 23,000 dead in total, and 12,000 are children. really? so does that mean that apart from the terrorists, all the other dead in Gaza are only children? Understand that this is ridiculous... of course even if one child is killed there it is terrible, but Hamas lies to everyone and plays with everyone's mind

[@yasminni485]

@@annolivares9865 f you, you are disgusting. How about the hostages that are still in Hamas captivity being starved, tortured, raped? How about 1200 Israeli people brutally murdered and tortured by Hamas and the "innocent Gazans"? How about entire families burned alive? No, let's have empathy instead for the people killing their own children and blaming it on someone else. Why can't people see the tragedy on both sides of this war? Hamas is responsible for all these deaths. Why is it so hard for people to demand for the Hamas terrorist-rapist regime surrender so no one else needs to die? From DAY 1 OF THIS WAR, Israel told Hamas to release the hostages and they will stop shooting - did Hamas do that? No! Then all deaths in Gaza are on Hamas' bloody hands. If you want no more deaths in Gaza Hamas has to surrender - that is the only option! If you think Israel will or should surrender you are kidding yourself and you need to get some mental help.

Thomas I watched your interview when you were told that Emily might have been killed and I cried my heart out for you. But then I saw the footage of your little Emily flying into your arms after her release and I also cried for joy. As the mother of a 9 year old myself, I could feel the utter despair, the devastation and the grief that was so insurmountable but also the sheer and utter relief both times. I understood what you meant and I have never been to Israel. I thank God that your daughter has been released alive and that her little friend and her mum have also been released. It is THE most horrific situation to have experienced for all of you. I'm sorry you had to find out about the deaths of your friends on the Kibbutz and I pray that you can find comfort in the fact that they are now no longer having to struggle and they are now at peace. We all want peace! We want this war to end and for your lives to pick up some sort of normalcy. I pray for the hostages that are still held and most importantly for their families who are just buried in such unbelievable emotion everyday. Emily is a strong little girl. She initially looked very sad but I'm as relieved as you are that they didn't abuse her because this was my greatest fear for her. May God bless and keep you both safe and well for the rest of your lives.

[@nisahmed9121]

It was absolutely wrong that an innocent child like Emily was taken as a hostage. But later Humus did not harm her . Her father trying hard to say everything Hamus did was negative. But her sister said Emily learnt to insist to feed others and share food. Everyone was told to lower their voice because Hamus doesn’t want to expose their location ! They offered them donuts with the little food they have in Gaza while Gaza children are starving. She was bored but not harmed. They were afraid of the Bo mn done by their government more than Hamus. It was a wrong situation but say the truth about it not what your government coached you to say.

[@nisahmed9121]

There is no excuse in taking innocent children or civilians hostages! But why would an Irish man leave Ireland and steal Palestinians homes & lands and participate in the brutal occupation that torture Palestinians everyday even before 1948?!!!

[@nisahmed9121]

Gigi & Bella Hadid father said when Jews were oppressed in Europe and their ship was denied entrance to UK, USA they head to Palestine. Palestinians open their hearts & homes to those refugees! His father took 2 families into his home for 2 years. When Haddid pregnant mother was about to deliver him, she went to his grandparents house. When she returned home her guests took over her house and wouldn't let her in. Palestinians then became the refugees in their own country !!!

Thomas is my hero. He endured so much in such a short period of time. His grief in the time of uncertainty must have been immeasurable. After all the mental torture he's been through he received a miracle. He's been through so much and yet he still continues to show extraordinary prowess in this interview. He received his daughter back and still continues to bring awareness to the other hostages and their families' suffering. He stands as and for many Israeli Fathers and people as an example of our people's resilience in the face of tragedy. I wish him, Emily and all his family and friends all the best and for everyone to make a complete recovery.

I agree, except he exclaimed "yes" when he was told that his daughter was dead. Thankfully, that wasn't the case... and yet, in this interview, he said finding out that she wasn't necessarily dead was like getting punched by a professional boxer.

This is one of the best - and most real, forthright and most moving - interviews on the Israel/Hamas war that I've seen to date.. Unfortunately, he never got to answer the burning question: "what do you say to people who deny what happened?" His emotions (and, clearly, anger) are so raw, and I got the impression that Emily doesn't want to see or doesn't know how to deal with that rage, and that's why she moved away. The people who deny the reality of the images of Oct 7th need to hear from Thomas how real and devastating it all is.

I don’t think she moved away because of his rage but left because they started to talk about what happened on the day of Oct. 7th and didn’t want to hear about the horrors after living it and going through all she has been through for so long because she stayed when he was angry and upset talking about how Israel wasn’t an apartheid state.

IDC how deliberately blind you are, or how morally lacking you may be, you can't sweep so much overwhelmingly damning evidence under the rug and declare it "fake AI" (especially with no receipts of such bold claims), just so you can minimize the damages in order to fit to your narrative, or because you can't bear to face the reality of what you perceived a certain way till then turning out to be an entirely distorted delusion of your own creation. You can't erase all the autopsy reports of the deceased bodies telling of what their last moments alive were like, since they're carved on them forever. You also CANNOT do all that, yet say you're fighting in the name of human rights. You cannot claim to oppose oppression but ignore the fact there are people being oppressed, only because in your views being oppressed is alluding to a very certain, entirely one sided concept and they're not of the "side" fitting your presumptions. You can't say what you're doing is NOT, actually dehumanizing an entire ethnicity by- turning your back on their victims, by blinding your eyes from their distress and deafening your ears from their cries for help, only to justify it by also demonizing them, saying they deserved it, by ripping off posters of a less than 1 year old kidnapped baby being held down miles of underground terror dungeons, if he's even alive anymore, LAUGHING and SMIRKING while doing it, by believing that more than 230 people (including babies and Holocaust survivors) deserved to be ripped out of their beds and be slaughtered, maimed and kidnapped to become literal slaves, that 100+ days later are still getting r6ped (while so-called "Human Rights" activists condoning it all are too busy trying to push all the blame on the side actually suffering the consequences from the exact accusations outrageously pointed at them instead of the perpetrators responsible for them, and also demand any concern be exclusively preserved for those of which 70% population, to this day, support all of this- at the expanse of their own desolation- whose doctors and families aid in hiding kidnapped civilians and exposing locations and participated on October 7th, who adopted Nazi ideologies (and Hitler books) and elected an extremists group that very explicitly support the annihilation of said people's entire ethnicity and many more off of the face of the earth), by marching the streets chanting genocidal mantras, calling for a violent, bloody uprising- intifadah, be committed on a group of people without differentiation, by supporting terrorist to re-arm and enabling the continuation of their war crimes against humanity marking all the ✅ on all sorts of depravity levels including the lowest bar- their own people. First- soldiers (that's right, atrocities of that scale- like decapitations- ARE, in fact, recognized as war crimes, any claims to the contrary are plain ignorant. In Dagestan- Chechnya war Islamist forces from Chechnya infiltrated Dagestan and declared a Jihadist separatist movement to cleanse the region of “unbelievers”, their actions, were, in fact considered war crimes that shook the world to this day, decades later. even though their claims were that the people of Chechnya desired independence from their Russian overlords, that does not absolve them of responsibility nor does it suddenly becomes a legitimization for committing atrocities against them, they're just that- claims), of any civilians they encountered, and war crimes on their OWN PEOPLE by using them as shields and sacrifices, starving them, actively killing them (Democide) and launching missiles around them from hospitals, schools, Mosques and homes, and by calling for a ceasefire while recognizing the perpetrators of the attack's own charter openly states their ultimate goals quoted directly from their holy book, are the explicit annihilation orders of entire groups of specific people as dictated according by their religion, that also perceived their eradication by any means necessary be seen as a holy, honorable act of martyrdom for the cause (becoming a Shahid -a posthumous witness to that belief), and encourages violence by the sword, and even after knowingly witnessing said perpetrators declaring to swear by doing it again and again and again. What you're actually committing is an unethical, immoral injustice, on all fronts. You're not being a liberal activist, and you're definitely not helping the plight of those you claim to stand by their cause nor do you seem to have their best interest in mind. I barely even scraped the surface of the problem, only what the behavior displayed around the world of self-proclaimed liberals with so-called western ideologies, most likely the only place that's privileged enough where such artificial ideologies can actually work in. Problem is reality to the rest of the world is way less sunshine and much darker, existential black.

No need to apologize; it needs to be said. One of the bitterest ironies of what happened on Oct. 7th is that it happened to such genuinely kind, decent, peaceful people. They chose to believe the best about their neighbours in Gaza, bearing no ill will toward them despite their having elected a government that constantly shot missiles into Israel, necessitating bomb shelters in every home. They helped them, giving them jobs, driving them to and from hospitals. They weren't warmongers; they didn't teach their children to hate.

But he is not Irish and therefore he is lying in order to trick his sycophantic fans into adopting his pro-genocide support. Irish? He is an insult to Ireland." What are you trying to say about Piers? I ask because your comment is very confusing because you directly contradict yourself apparently without realizing you did. I wonder and challenge you to find or figure out how and why you contradicted yourself and how you can fix that egregious error. Anyway why do you say "he is not Irish"? Because he supposedly "supports" genocide as alleged by you and your ilk? Or what? So if that is your and your ilks' (only) basis for saying "he is not Irish", how does that work (that "he is not Irish")? Was he not born and raised in Ireland? If he was not, then you might have a legitimate complaint against him about calling himself Irish. But there is a caveat which is if he was not born and raised in Ireland, then did he perhaps gain Irish citizenship through the country's naturalization procedure? If he did gain Irish citizenship through the country's naturalization procedure even though he might not have been born and raised there, then he is definitely an Irishman through that particular process thus rendering your and your ilks' allegation against him of "not being Irish" baseless, null and void. And even though all of you Hamas/Palestinian/Gaza supporters, especially in Ireland, are aiming that particular allegation squarely at Piers, you all are effectively aiming it at many other Irish people who are most definitely Irish [through any legal means] and live in Ireland and have come out on many comment boards/sections in some form of support of Israel - whether full-throated or otherwise - and I highly expect that they are not appreciative of that baseless, null and void allegation of "not being Irish" just because they don't support Hamas and other such terrorists. So you might want to try a different tactic because this one is (obviously) not working for y'all. But if y'all want to continue to be stupes - well, y'all are part of the free world and know what that means. Right? Js.

See what Israel does for its citizens and their rights. And then, if you dare, listen to what the ex-Muslim’s are saying… or for that matter, even what the Israeli Muslim women are saying - those who are given rights. The terrorists have not hidden their message of hate and destruction. They call for death for all Jews, and for Christians - for anyone not Muslim. It’s so backwards, because the media would have you believe the terrorists to be the victims! Wake up!

Maybe research some more. Look up the 65 laws that differentiate the Arabs from the Jews. Look up how many Palestinian kids are being locked up without charge. Look up what the government did to Ethiopian women etc.

[@tyarchie5143]

Depending on the background people will have a different outlook on how life is there. For people of Jewish background it is a great place. But for the non Jewish people right now. It's not so good. Imagine living in the UK or America and being arrested or fired for just your beliefs or moral values. Even Jewish people right now are being censored there.

@@vitak5162 nice attempt at deflection. We are commenting on apartheid, not which religion you follow or gays rights etc. By deflecting and trying to make this about antisemitism, you are not only wrongfully trying to claim victim, but are admitting apartheid exists. Secondly, there may be issues with Islam, but don’t act like Israel have it right. Gay marriage is still illegal and gays were stabbed at a pride march. The Likud party themselves dislike gays.

There is no excuse in taking innocent children or civilians hostages! But why would an Irish man leave Ireland and steal Palestinians homes & lands and participate in the brutal occupation that torture Palestinians everyday even before 1948?!!!

[@nisahmed9121]

Gigi & Bella Hadid father said when Jews were oppressed in Europe and their ship was denied entrance to UK, USA they head to Palestine. Palestinians open their hearts & homes to those refugees! His father took 2 families into his home for 2 years. When Haddid pregnant mother was about to deliver him, she went to his grandparents house. When she returned home her guests took over her house and wouldn't let her in. Palestinians then became the refugees in their own country !!!

[@ericaugust1501]

except he was wrong. death is not better than being a hostage. the hostages are kept alive and well, as often as possible as evidenced by many other released hostages reports, and his daughter herself. Thats the problem, the mainstream and decades long propaganda have brainwashed israelis to think palestinians are animals. And then when hostages die, if you really think hostages don't die because of the relentless IDF indiscriminate and blind bombing which kills thousands of civilians, then you are a fool. And the rape and torture stories are generally complete bullshit, but hey, keep repeating them without evidence.

As a citizen of SA I apologize for the idiocy of my government, and I'm deeply sorry for your hurt and loss.
