President Trump warned the Hamas terror group Monday night to release all remaining hostages by noon Saturday, or he would allow Israel to cancel the ongoing cease-fire and “let hell break out” in the Middle East.
“As far as I’m concerned, if all of the hostages aren’t returned by Saturday at 12 o’clock — I think it’s an appropriate time — I would say, cancel it and all bets are off and let hell break out,” the president told reporters in the Oval Office, without specifying what time zone the deadline would apply to.
“I’d say they ought to be returned by 12 o’clock on Saturday. And if they’re not returned — all of them, not in dribs and drabs, not two and one and three and four and two – by Saturday at 12 o’clock. And after that, I would say, all hell is going to break out.”
Trump did not rule out sending in US troops to the region — telling reporters “we’ll see what happens” — and did not expand on what he meant by “all hell is going to break out.”

It’s time to read the world of those vermin!!
Not much left in Gaza after 90,000 tons of bombs.
Can a Justice of the Peace stop Trump? Let’s hope not. After all, he did sign off on sending Israel several MOABs. It will be interesting to see them in use.
Let Israel do it. Not our job. Don’t want Gaza.
Yes judge will rule he cant, impeach them all or better yet fight fire with fire
Everyone of those judges have skeletons. A little whisper in their ear and they will become compliant
I believe the correct quote is, “Hell is coming for breakfast”.

The US, to my understanding, is holding Israel back. I think Trump builds support for Israeli action here by being so obviously willing to negotiate peace. At this point it is hard to blame some actions on anyone but Hamas.
I like your plan.
HIGH NOON!!!!!
