Why don't we know the names of the American hostages in Gaza?

dontcha trust us?

Also when they say American do they mean dual Israeli citizenship American or like original recipe instead of multinational with questionable allegiance?

Does it really have anything to do with israel? or trusting them? Hamas should have all the names and if they dont it shows what a cluster this is

I got one article not mentioning American hostages and the White Houe alluding to that 9 Americans remained captive. While a recent Barron's article doesn't. That's the point though in the past we would have known immediately and often who these Americans were even those with dual citizenship. The media would have been blasting it and there is a reason it isn't doing that. As I said there are likely some legit reasons for the lack of clarity as well as some that aren't as legit. For example, does our government want to downplay the possible threat to Americans to not stoke Islamaphobia? 

Pretty sure most if not all have dual citizenship, there is nothing nefarious about it either. Lots of people do. Like 2 of the girls killed and raped at the music festival who lived in Los Angeles and were just visiting Israel IIRC, this info would have been blasted across MSM and yet it isn't easy to find
