Hamas Brags of Holding Israel ‘At Gunpoint’ in Talks

Hamas is hiding behind their own children holding an antique single shot pistol while Israel is sitting across the table with a machine gun and modern body armor. Israel is worried about a lucky shot or being criticized if either side shoots the kid.
