From the very beginning of this round of Israeli-Palestinian conflict, there have been different statements about some facts in this conflict. For example, whether this conflict is called "Palestinian-Israeli conflict" or "Israel-Kazakhstan conflict" is quite controversial on the Internet. Another example is the Israeli captured by the Palestinian resistance. Are they called "hostages", "prisoners of war" or "detainees"? Many military fans also use them casually, so what should we think of these words?

Ivan the Great’s point of view, there is no doubt that the power of language will define the nature of the event, and what words are used to describe what happened on the east coast of the Mediterranean Sea directly reflects the attitude of a certain country and individual towards this event. For example, Israel did not hesitate to call those who were taken away by resistance organizations "hostages", and the United States and other western countries also called them "hostages". Seeing this scene, many military fans in our country were puzzled and followed the cry of "hostages, hostages".

In fact, the word "hostage" did have the meaning of "the population plundered by war forced the enemy to agree to certain conditions" in ancient Chinese. However, in the context of modern Chinese, the word "hostage" is mostly used in scenes such as illegal crimes and terrorist attacks. Who will catch "hostage"? Kidnappers take hostages, terrorists take hostages. Therefore, Israel and others refer to the people taken by Hamas as "hostages", which is in line with Israel’s slander of resistance organizations as terrorists. China does not recognize Hamas as a terrorist organization, but neither does it recognize Hamas as a national army. Without a national army, there is no right to engage in war, and the term "prisoner of war" is not applicable. Therefore, as you can see, at the CCTV level, our name for these people is unified as "detained persons", which is very neutral.

The so-called "Palestinian-Israeli conflict" and "Israel-Kazakhstan conflict/war" are also the same. The reason why China describes this conflict as "Palestinian-Israeli conflict" is that on the one hand, it recognizes that the resistance organization led by the Palestinian Islamic resistance movement can represent the resistance spirit of the Palestinian people to a certain extent and is enough to be a representative of the Palestinian people; On the other hand, it is believed that the wanton bombing of the Gaza Strip by the Israeli army has made the victims of the conflict all the Palestinian people, which makes this conflict have the nature of total war and is enough to be called "Palestinian-Israeli conflict".

However, some people who keep saying "Israel-Kazakhstan conflict" literally understand "Israel-Kazakhstan" as if Hamas is detached from the existence of the Palestinian people and can neither act as the representative of the Palestinian people nor exercise the right of resistance on their behalf. At the same time, it also makes Israel’s war goal seem to point only at Hamas and have nothing to do with the Palestinian people. Obviously, this is by no means the case …

Compared with War of Resistance against Japan, can we call the September 18th Incident a "conflict between Japan and Zhang" and the national government’s war of resistance against Japan and Chiang Kai-shek? Obviously not, which dilutes the significance of War of Resistance against Japan’s national war of resistance and inter-state war. This is also the real concern of these people who keep saying "Israel-Kazakhstan conflict"-Hamas’s "illegal resistance" has caused heavy casualties in the Gaza Strip and cannot represent the interests of the Palestinian people. To put it bluntly, this is a routine with the well-known anti-Japanese guerrilla warfare that attacked the enemy’s rear.

In fact, according to these people’s ideas, we can also call the current Russia-Ukraine conflict "Russia-Jersey conflict"-after all, Hamas is more like a person than the Kiev ruling group, which has "sold, sold and sold" the country. You ask these people who keep saying "Kazakhstan-Israel conflict", who is willing to change their words to "Russia-Azerbaijan conflict"? I can guarantee that 99.99% of people are unwilling, so, isn’t that enough?
