“Witkoff apparently did more to move Netanyahu toward a ceasefire in a single meeting than Biden did in the past year, according to two Arab officials who spoke with the outlet, which is based in Jerusalem. “
Makes sense, Netanyahu probably thought Trump was going to give him everything he wanted. As it is, a ceasefire has been agreed with Hamas still in power in Gaza.
Butt, butt, butt.......
That deal Biden took credit for is apparently falling apart fast. Hamas has four days to do something. I would anticipate the release of all hostages as a pre-condition because if that doesn’t happen in the next four days, to quote Trump, “There will be hell to pay.” And I believe him.
JUST A QUESTION.
WOULD YOU TRUST BIDEN AND HIS GANG TO MAKE ANY KIND OF DEAL ??
Not in this Space-Time Continuum.............
Israel should have offered 10,000 Euro or dollar rewards for each hostage delivered up.
Israel could have driven pairs of specially marked armored personnel carriers around Gaza. A man in the trailing one could have been given a stack of bills and a picture of each hostage arranged in name order.
The reward program could have been publicly announced along with details:
1. armored car pairs
2. second guy in back has the cash
3. have hostage call out his/her full name in Hebrew, face the second armored car and have face clearly visible.
4. have hostage say name of mother and city where born
5. exchange money for hostage
6. if you have additional hostage, say tomorrow in Arabic ‘bokra’
7. future exchange to be at a different place at least one kilometer away
Trust in the venality of the Arab.
7 Americans taken hostage remain. 4 dead, 3 alive to be returned in first go round; in exchange, a select group of 113 convicted & jailed terrorists will be given back to Hamas so they can resume the fight to kill Jews.
Also wounded Hamas terrorist will be allowed to cross into Israel to seek treatment using the Rafa gate.
Sunday is the deadline for the exchange to take place.
The second go round will be more complex and will focus on older men - the more men released, the more Hamas murders will be returned to the battlefield.
If Hamas does no go thorough with the exchange as planed, on the 20th Israel will be given a green light to do whatever it takes to destroy the remaining Hamas forces - no aid will be held up or otherwise delayed.
The Biden regime summed up in a four word quote from V.I. Lenin: “The worse, the better.”
To buy 98 hostages would cost $980,000.
....and the media gives all the credit to the Biden Administration.
AS USUAL—HAMAS IS THROWING ANOTHER WRENCH INTO THE GEARS AT THE LAST MINUTE.
JUST as much as I would TRUST HAMAS...:)
Fully expected....................
Of course
Too bad.....
Until the hostages and remains of hostages are on a flight home, I won’t believe any deal was struck. I think Trump will have to unleash hell.
Just like in the Iranian hostage turnover, Arabs respect and respond to force.
They played both Carter and Biden for the weak fools they were.
The “cowboy” Reagan and the “crazy” Trump image scared the crap out of evil people!
