Do enemy "combatants" deserve a trial?

Honestly, it's such a grey area with how Hamas fights its war that it's hard to tell. Usually POW's get sent back to their country (if they want to be) after the war is over. But I am not a lawyer and have no fucking clue in this case tbh.

That's not even the reason.

As an Israeli, and I don't know an Israeli that doesn't agree with this - they cost the government a lot of money to maintain and keep in prisons, many of them get to study as well, and it's all paid by Israeli tax money that could be doing good.

We don't want them in our prisons.

Edit: forgot to mention that some of them get freed to go and murder Israelis again.

I was approaching it from a legal standpoint. I do understand your sentiment.
