Prime Minister Netanyahu stated Friday that Israel and the United States are actively considering alternative options” to secure the release of the hostages.
In his statement, the Prime Minister expressed agreement with U.S. Special Envoy to the Middle East Steve Witkoff, who emphasized that Hamas remains the primary obstacle to reaching a hostage deal.
“Special Envoy to the Middle East Steve Witkoff got it right. Hamas is the obstacle to a hostage release deal. Together with our U.S. allies, we are now considering alternative options to bring our hostages home, end Hamas’s terror rule, and secure lasting peace for Israel and our region”.
Meanwhile, President trump responded to the news as he was departing the Whitehouse on a trip to Turnberry, Scotland.
“They pulled out in terms of negotiating. It was too bad. Hamas didn’t really want to make a deal. I think they want to die.”
“When you get down to those last 20 hostages…it’s going to be very hard for Hamas to make a deal because they lose their shield…We got a lot of them out—a lot of them. We took a lot of bodies out… It was very important to the parents to get their son back.”

Im sick of these lies. Everyone knows they know where the hostages are. Sorry none of what netanyahu says sounds genuine. Trump knows what’s going on but to reveal the truth would mean people knowing things they don’t need to know that’s why trump seemed to go against netanyahu at some point. Netanyahu acts stupid he knows where those hostages. Are give me a break. Oct 7 false flag operation
Israel, as the one who controls Gaza should be done with dealing with Hamas and move on to whatever their plan is for Gaza after the war. Rich Arab countries have a multi billion dollar plan for rebuilding it along with how to govern it. Israel along with Trump should announce that no rebuilding will start until all the hostages are released, effectively holding the people of Gaza hostage to living in tents and eating food from aid trucks until the hostages are released. So instead of Israel being the ones to attempt to pressure Hamas, which is obviously not working, it will be the entire arab world along with the Palestinians themselves who will be pressuring them.
History repeats itself. Rebellious groups cannot be stopped until the people that support it suffer.
In the US Civil War, ultimately it ended when Union Forces went after the peoples resources.
Similarly, Hamas in Gaza cannot be stopped until the population that supports it loses its resources. Feeding Gazans prolongs the war and puts the live of Americans and our allies at risk. They need to step up against their leadership if they wish to survive. The United States of America did it to end a war, Israel must be supported to do the same!
