In their latest depraved move, the terrorist group/political entity Hamas released a “proof-of-life” video Saturday of American hostage Keith Siegel, a father of four and grandfather of five.
This from redstate.com.
Appearing alongside fellow hostage Omri Miran, the Chapel Hill, N.C. native looked strained and haunted, and his eyes welled up with tears during the nearly three-and-half-minute-long clip.
Meanwhile, protesters have descended upon campuses across the nation to show their support for the sick people behind this abduction, Hamas.
This clip should be played on a big screen on the quads of all these shameful schools. It’s tough to watch:
There is a heart shattering moment in the latest hostage clip released by the Hamas psychopaths in which Israeli-American citizen Keith Siegel tells his family he has good memories of last's years Passover holiday when they were together – before he breaks down in tears 💔 pic.twitter.com/L0Hcrwf7P3

Here is the full video:
عاجل| كتائب القسام تنشر: الضغط العسكري أدى إلى مقتل عشرات الأسرى الذين بأيدينا وحرم البقية من الاحتفال بعيد الفصح مع أعزائهم

The video is undated, but the 46-year-old Miran said he has been held hostage now for 202 days. Siegel and Miran also say they are aware of the efforts to get all the Hamas captives released:
The pair also said they had seen demonstrators in Tel Aviv and Jerusalem pressing for their release, according to i24.
The hostages urged Israelis to continue their efforts, suggesting the constant heat could push the Israeli government into negotiating a deal with Hamas.
Siegel was kidnapped along with his wife, Aviva, a 62-year-old teacher, at their home in Kibbutz Kfar Aza, which was ravaged by Hamas terrorists during the Oct. 7 attacks that saw roughly 1,200 people killed and another 253 taken hostage.
Siegel’s family posted a statement after they saw the video:
The family of hostage Keith Siegel – who was seen in a propaganda clip released today by Hamas – shared this video.

Ilan Siegel:
Seeing my father today only emphasizes to all of us how much we must reach a deal as soon as possible and bring everyone home. I demand that the leaders of this country watch this video and see their father crying out for help.”
Shir Siegel:
If you watched the video, you saw that my father knows we are all coming to the rally every week and fighting for him and all the captives. Thank you for being with us. We will not stop fighting together.
Aviva Siegel:
Keith, I love you, we will fight until you return.
The idiots trashing universities and celebrating murderers seem to have no compassion for the horrors so many Israelis experienced on Oct. 7, 2023—and are continuing to suffer through now.
The protesters should be demanding the release of all the hostages, not the destruction of Israel, but they are not, and it is a sad commentary on a shameless segment of our society.
