Hell was where Mer Shem Tov spent 505 times. The 22-year-old Israeli was abducted on October 7, 2023, and Hamas held him in Gaza for nearly a year and a half, the majority of it in a pitch-black underground cell where Hamas tortured, detained, and forced him to drill caverns for his prisoners. Shem Tov revealed more in a recent interview with CNN’s Bianna Golodryga than just the horrors of his prison. He provided a rare glimpse into the social mathematics of the extremists responsible for his imprisonment and how Donald Trump resurrected.

Shem Tov recalled that at first,” they were spitting on me and cursing me.” I was in hunger. I received two pieces of bread wheat each day. Then it got worse, with only one biscuit and a few drinks of salt water left by the time it was finished. I dropped from 176 weight to 121″. He spent 80 times without a bath. There were days when I believed I was blind, he said. ” I don’t see my own hands in front of my face because it was so dark.”
Therefore, someone unexpectedly occurred. And it quickly changed.
Shem Tov claimed that” they understood that he wants to bring the victims back home as soon as Donald Trump was elected.” But right away, the way they treated me changed. He received more meal, and the verbal abuse over and over again abruptly stopped. They stopped yelling at me. They stopped spitting on me.
Why did things suddenly change? Shem Tov asserts that it wasn’t just anxiety.  ,
He unwaveringly said,” They wanted Kamala to remain elected.” ” Yes, yes, yes. They discussed politicians. Kamala was their goal. But they became enthralled as soon as Trump entered.
Shem Tov believes that Trump was taken seriously in a way that Joe Biden and Kamala Harris were certainly due to that fear. We previously felt as though nothing was going on, he explained. Then he entered the street, and the people were incredibly afraid of him.

Shem Tov told Trump during a visit to the Oval Office that he thought the launch of President Trump was the result of holy treatment. Shem Tov recalls that Trump merely stated to him,” You got a great future.
The distinction between how Kamala Harris and Hamas were perceived speaks volumes. Despite the left’s language regarding “diplomacy” and “nuance,” the extremists Shem Tov lived under stern control and feared effects. They were aware that Trump was serious about company.
Shem Tov has a vision months after his discharge. He demands the release of the captives who have been released in public, recounts his experiences, and makes a plea in public. He said,” Time is precious. We must “get them out,” they say.
Shem Tov responded when Golodryga inquired whether Trump’s continuing pressure might aid in their freedom.” I think so. Sure”.

The conclusion couldn’t be more lucid or upsetting. Kamala Harris was chosen by the Obama administration because it thought she was poor. But all changed when Trump came back to power. The jihadists started negotiating, stopped cursing, and stopped starving the victims. Why? Because they feared him. They were aware of what countless Americans now understood: Donald Trump means what he says when he draws a red line for show.
