Intensifies. A ground war expected any moment along the gaza has yet to materialize. The fear is there and so is the rampant advice, were told israel will be targeting from multiple sites. Egyptians are showing support, but warning it would have limits, that is to get people out of there. They werent referring to the invasion. Were learning as well, right now, that with all of this going on, turkey is concerned that israels response and our very presence with the gerald r. Ford in the neighborhood will increase the chances for a massacre. Lets go to trey yingst right now in southern israel, what hes seeing amidst the fastmoving developments. Trey. Yeah, neil, good morning. Were following the developments out of the gaza strip and also, along the northern border with israel. Some Significant Developments on the northern border as fighting appears to continue between hezbollah, the lebanese militant group, and also the Israeli Forces on the northern part of the border. I want to take you through video that were getting from the Israeli Military that show the hours after these militants invaded southern israel, they were not just trying to get in from the ground, but also from the sea and the israeli navy releasing Video Showing how they were firing on different hamas operatives inside the sea in the mediterranean trying to get into israeli territory. It looks like a fire fight in the sea, using machine guns trying to hit the Palestinian Militants that came from gaza and a fastpaced video that we received from the military. All of this happening as rocket fire continues from the gaza strip. Today, you can hear an israeli drone overhead and weve seen the rocket fire for ourselves as the israelis respond with air strikes. Just last night we were here along the border and i want to show you what it was like in the dark. Take a look. You can see behind me a large explosion in the northern part of the gaza strip. The israelis continue to strike gaza ahead of an expected ground operation. Right now theres a massive Rocket Barrage coming off the gaza strip. You can see one rocket after another appears to be toward the center of israel. Now, neil, here along the border, there are a number of israeli troops and theyre finally making it into some of the communities. Some civilians came to us and i want to show you what they showed us. This is a little puppy that they found in one of the communities along the border and hes very, very sweet and shy, but hes very scared because theres a lot of noises here, but they found him in a small village near the gaza border and they said the family that had this puppy was killed during the attack on saturday morning and just this puppy survived. And hes just a survivor and yet another indication people were just living their lives, with their families and their pets at the militants went into their homes and killed so many people. When it comes to animals here in southern israel, the israelis have set up a Volunteer Service for anyone who can help out with animals that theyre finding in these communities. Little puppies like this one who just need assistance once theyre rescued from the areas, where soldiers are finally making it along the gaza border, neil. Neil i keep thinking what that little puppy witnessed, probably cant make out. Such is war. Trey, thank you for that. We needed to see that to remind us, bring us home to the craziness of all of this. And joining us the former israeli ambassador to the united nations. Ambassador, its great to have you and thank you for taking the time. Where do you see this going . Youre resolute, as you said, in the past, and as the Prime Minister pointed out, this is all about taking out hamas. How comfortable are you with that as a goal and how far does that goal go . Good morning, neil. So, you know, exactly a week ago, we witnessed the brutal attack and were still counting the numbers beyond Emergency Nation and we havent seen the brutality since the holocaust. Were getting ready to fight back and prepared for hunting down hamas. I think the goal of the operation should be simple, elimination of hamas. In the past, we entered gaza, but it was only partially and we never finished the job. And look what happened, and look how many civilians died a week ago. The negotiations should be clear like you fought isis, eliminated isis, we have to do the same with hamas and we will try to minimalize the casualties among the civilians in gaza, but we cannot go back to normal and leave hamas intact. Only a matter of time, theyll get more funding from iran and launch another attack on israel. The days of no response are over. And we have to build our deterrence the only way to do that is the complete elimination of hamas. How do you know from who is from hamas and who are just regular gaza palestinians . How do you sort that out . So, its complicated. Now we actually ask the residents of Northern Gaza to move out, to move out to go south and not to stay in that area so that we know that the hamas militants will stay in gaza. You know, gaza today you have underground city. Hamas used International Funding to dig tunnels, hundreds of tunnels and bunkers, so we will fight the militants if the civilians would stay around the hamas headquarters, they will be casualties, unfortunately. So we advise them to take the time now, not to wait, to move south and that will be our goal to provide corridors for civilians to move out and then the hamas militants will stay there and we will crush them, we will fight them, we will bury them. Neil so hamas has had control of this area, really started in 2005, in earnest in 2007. I imagine there are quite a few who represent hamas and take it from what youre saying just to be clear, ambassador, anyone and everyone connected to hamas, theyve got to go, right . Absolutely. And you know, i dont know, neil, how much you were able to watch the footage from the massacre, but when you watch the footage you see it was not only hamas who broke into the communities, raped our daughters, kidnapped them, burned kids alive. It was civilians that came from gaza. Thats horrible. So we will focus on the Hamas Terrorist Organization and everyone who will stay there to assist them, we will go after them as well. So, we provide those corridors so the civilians who are not involved can move out, but then were going in with force, with determination, we are fighting for our lives. Neil so when this battle is on in gaza, it will be difficult to deal with those who are leaving with safety and those who are from hamas who are leaving to escape Israeli Soldiers and sort of blend in with that crowd. Again, i know i sound repetitive, ambassador, im sorry, but how do you prevent that . So, i agree with you. I am sure you will see hamas already left gaza or hiding underground in south gaza. Thats why i think its important for us to complete the job. Not to go to certain neighborhoods and allow terrorists and leaders to move south and hide there. We have to go neighborhood by neighborhood, exactly like the powers of the west worked against isis in mosul, they went neighborhood by neighborhood to clean it up. If you dont do that, i agree with you, neil, youll find that hamas moved to Northern Gaza, to southern gaza. We cannot do that. We have to go all the way and i encourage Prime Minister netanyahu to do that. You have the support of the people, you have the support of the u. S. And international community, we have to finish the job now. Neil understood. Ambassador, thank you very much. The former ambassador, danny danon. With me is tim scott, South Carolina senator and also a republican president ial candidate. Senator, very good to have you. I dont know if you had a chance to listen to everything the former israeli ambassador just said, but he said that israel is going to hang tough. This attack is not going to be tentative attack. Its going to be a sweeping one with the goal being aggressive. Neil destroy and annihilate hamas. Do you agree with that . I do, indeed, neil. I sat down with ambassador herzog just this week, a few days ago, and his response was very clear that a proportional response is to wipe hamas off the map and i agree with him. The bottom line, when you see the inhumanity, you see the devastation, frankly, neil, the evil brought upon the jewish people and the state of israel, you cant not ever look at a baby again and not thank god that that child is healthy when you know in israel, babies were burned, they were beheaded its devastating and to watch Prime Minister netanyahus response by saying in response to those living in gaza, leave. We are coming in. It will be a complete siege. Having the type of discipline that weve seen from the Prime Minister to give people a chance to leave is an important indication of the integrity and the morality, but at the end of the day, hamas needs to cease to exist and i believe that we should have no daylight between the United States of america and israel and their objective to keep their people safe. Neil still, a lot of what youve been saying lately is a lot more sharp and in your face than weve heard from you during this long president ial campaign, senator. You had said just the other day that President Biden has blood on his hands. You suggested that the president was even complicit as such in this hamas assault. What did you mean by that . Well, neil, listen, one of the things ill say as a guy that believes that commitment to israel is not just a right thing to do because theyre our ally, the right thing to do because they are friends, but the fact of the matter is that as a person who believes psalms, i believe its our responsibility to have a sharp, strong response to evil when we see it, especially when its brought upon our ally. I would simply say, that when you have the weakness of President Biden, you invite attacks. When you negotiate a deal creating a market for hostages, 6 billion to iran, what did hamas say . They said, thank you to iran. That, in my opinion, is being complicit. We know, neil, that money is fungible. So when you know that youre Funding Terrorism by giving 6 billion to iran, its just undeniable and it is frustrating to see this president raise the expense, raise the bounty on American Heads abroad. We saw that during the obama administration. I said then, the 400 million, 400 million would only increase the price per american and now we see 6 billion, the money will be used to kill israelis. Neil i understand, senator, youre a cautious and religious man. I am, yes. Neil i get from that, you were putting the blame for this and laying the siege for this on President Biden i got that, but last time i checked hamas butchered those babies. Hamas killed better than a thousand innocent israelis. Absolutely. Neil do you think during the time that its on tenterhooks, is that responsible language . Its clear language and forceful language because its disgusting to see the evil brought upon the jewish people and hamas objective is not just to eliminate israel, its to eliminate every jewish person on the planet and provide resources to iran, where you know theyre the primary, the primary supporter of the hamas financially, that puts you in a position of being complicit. I dont know where theres any guessing on this one. This one seems to me to be a straight line. Neil well, were commenting on what others have said. I want you to weigh in on what donald trump has said and since said hes the only person who could protect israel and the only person who will. But he said prior and in his comments are pretty wellknown now that hezbollah is very smart. Yes. Neil he had slammed Benjamin Netanyahu and dialed some of that back at least on his true social site. I want you to weigh in on the comments. Neil, he have said it all week when asked, without any question, the former president , President Trump is dead wrong. We should have no daylight between america and israel. No negative comments about Prime Minister netanyahu as he engages in a war to defend his entire nation and the jewish people, but it goes a step further. Prime minister netanyahu is also fighting for western democracy, the thing that brings it all home is hamas objective includes the elimination of the jews, six million live in america, but they hate western democracy for standing on principles, for standing on right, for being the fire, thats why they call israel the little satan and america the big satan. Neil got it. Senator, thank you very much for taking the time. Senator tim scott on all of that.

I dont know if youve followed the people like bill ackman, the Billionaire Calling out Harvard Students for blaming israel for these hamas attacks, calling on ceos not to hire any one of them. My next ceo was among those who agreed. The ceo advocated that and curious enough his linkedin account was blocked and remains blocked. He joins us now. David, it seems more than coincidental. What do you make of that . Thank you, neil, for having me today. Id like to share some context. I think that would be helpful to frame the situation. My family fled their homeland of iran over 2000 years, the Islamic Revolution in 1979. The persianjewish community had to flee overnight once unimaginable situation. As a result of my familys experience i dont take my freedoms and securities for granted. Im a student of history and antisemitism and aware how ten uous our safety is. Our campuses, supposedly bastions of free speech and i think you and i know well in the wake of george floyd, if White Nationalists decided to hold a rally at ucla or harvard it would never be allowed. But these same are allowing, chanting rivers to the sea, palestine will be free and the same places that wanted safe spaces and im not surprised my account was taken down by a list of students advocating for the death and destruction of the jewish people. Were not talking about arguments over a twostate solution or Political Division of land. Were talking about hamas. Were talking about terrorism. Whose own Charter Calls for extermination of the jews. And i think that its conscious or subconscious antisemitism and make sure that these students pay a price and friends and neighbors and employers know that they harbor these beliefs. Youre saying for what they did as college kids and youre right, strong reactions to it, unless they reverse those views or you would never hire any one of them . You know, i think nobody should be judged by the worst decision they made of their life. Ive made a lot of Stupid St Decisions in their life. I think they have an opportunity to denounce support for hamas and terrorism. Im a small impact, but ultimately about the Broader Community knowing who these people are and for all employers, neighbors, and friends, to know that these folks harbor these types of beliefs. At the end of the 20th century, a number of people in belgium were jews. And then to zero. Ive received multiple threats, bombarded with hate messages, but history has shown that the price of inaction could be greater. Neil all right. Well, we have reached out to linkedin to find out what happened here and we have not heard back and we want to keep track of this and find out how thats going. David, thank you for taking the time. Thank you so much, neil, i appreciate it. Neil all right, david duel. Ron desantis has an order right now for Rescuing Floridians who might be trapped in israel.

Waiting for an invasion that could be a significant one right now, along the gaza area. Were told that israel is targeting now from multiple sites. Dont know much more than that. We know that the Prime MinisterBenjamin Netanyahu did have a chance to meet some of the troops. I dont know if they would be the ones who would be participating in such an attack, but he, again, urged them to fight the good fight and something that youve seen from president zelenskyy in ukraine, the leaders go right to the front line and talk to the troops and try to bolster up their mood and their passions and little need for that right now with israel with the rage thats still palpable, a week after the attacks by hamas. Lets get the latest on this right now with george burnbaum, the former chief of staff to netanyahu. Good to have you. And obviously, troops benefit from that when they get to see the leader of the country urging them to fight the good fight and that this is a meaningful fight for the world. That was kind of the message that the Prime Minister sent. I dont want to misrepresent it. But these have got to be scary and hairy days for the Prime Minister, for all those in the Israeli Government. You dont know what comes next and you dont know about widening potential attacks from the north from hezbollah, from syria. Its literally played minute by minute, isnt it . It is. Although, i dont think i have to tell you, neil, that the resolve of the jewish people is probably the strongest its been in a long, long time. The heinous atrocities, literally crimes against humanity that weve seen. Pregnant women shot in the back of the head and wombs cut open, babies beheaded. Im happy that the Prime Minister is talking to the army, but i dont think that any soldier in the army needs any more than the sights and videos and eyewitness accounts than weve seen. Neil youre a good student of history and youve seen prior attacks, all too many. And the Global Response is pretty much the same, a rally around israel, feeling horrible for the tragedy that beset that. Its shortlived doesnt last long, a week or so, and in the case of some countries in your region, its waning as we speak. Does that trouble you, that part of it . No, its par for the course, neil. As youve said, weve seen this movie play over and over again. Jewish blood is spilled, innocent jewish blood, we retaliate, the world is behind us, after a few days, a week or two, they ask for restraint and a ceasefire and a peaceful resolution. You know, ive been saying that, you know, ever since the founding of the state of israel, peace is all the jewish people ever wanted and weve made peace with enemies, peace with people with blood on their hands. Anwar sadat, and peace with other arab nations in the region and others as we move forward. The one group that has not been willing to make peace despite Benjamin Netanyahu, ahud barack anaks are the pal palestinians. Well do what it takes to clear out hamas from gaza and we have to keep in mind that their leadership is sitting, hiding cowardly in qatar, in doha. We have to get to them, too. In fact, i would urge the qataris to round them up to ship them to brussels and send them to the haig for war crimes. And we cannot allow the slaughter of jews, well over a thousand in any country let alone the country of israel and not see this to the end. Neil its very profound and very brave and very israeli, uniquely israelis, not entirely uniquely israeli, but makes you stand out as a people. You mentioned other overtures at peace and bringing people together and i noticed even last week on this attack, it was on the very day the anniversary of anwar sadats assassination, he made overtures and killed for it. Even the talk of approachment between your government and the saudi government is squelched by this attack or put off. Is that what happens, every time we see the promise of an olive branch, its snapped . Lets understand now, your viewers need to understand this is not unique to making peace. You know, one of your friends, the former mayor of Jerusalem Bakat who appeared many times we witnessed if jeruselem, in the arabisraeli areas hamas put a camera outside of the Election Areas and put a fatwah. And said anybody who would would be killed. And those who want to participate in democracy or palestinians who want peace are the fodder for the terrorists and the barbarians. Theres no reason why the palestinians shouldnt be able to get out of gaza, and hamas wont let them. They need them as Human Shields and threatens their lives and arabs in israel, their lives are threatened for wanting to participate in israeli democracy. So it goes well beyond the leadership thats going to make peace, it goes to the very, very foundation of democracy and human rights and selfdetermination. Thats well put, george. George birnbaum, thank you very much for taking the time. Thank you, neil. Neil all right. When we come back, ron desantis, the president ial candidate, florida government, has more immediate interests getting any floridian out of israel out of israel right now. Hes next.

Israel is still preparing for that Ground Invasion right now, a deal to supposedly let gazans who want to get out to get out. At this point who wouldnt want to. And mike has more. Unfortunately the deal to let the foreign nationals out of the gaza strip didnt seem to pan out throughout the day, creating another crisis with the civilians. And there are a lot of people crowded up at the crossing, hoping theyll open up. One of them im in contact with, emily, a u. S. Citizen and her five children are u. S. Citizens and got the notice from the u. S. State department to wait at the crossing, all day long, hoping it would open up as promised to do. It never did. The sun is going down and emily and her family have gone for shelter and so many people are piled up there, hoping somehow to get out of the gaza strip. More indications that the Ground Invasion is coming, really, at anytime. Prime minister Benjamin Netanyahu came here to the gaza border to give a pep talk to his troops, who are amassing and waiting for the order to get in. He asked them are you ready . He told them that the next stage is coming. We cant turn away from tensions at the northern border with lebanon. Hezbollah has claimed responsibility for several of the crossborder attacks and there have been rocket strikes, there has been antitank fire coming across the border. Israel has responded, but so far, that hasnt melted down to the point where thats a new front opening up in this war. Neil. Neil all right. Be safe, my friend. Mike tobin in the middle of all of that. Meanwhile, governor ron desantis, campaigning for president , still recognizing the fact that there are a lot of floridians who want out of israel, easier said than done. Hes trying to make that happen. Hes joining us from creston, iowa. Governor, good to have you. Thanks for having me, neil. Neil tell us what this is about, and what you hope to do . There wasnt a lot of uncertainty about what the u. S. Government was doing to get people out. Recently the administration said maybe well move people to europe and let them fend for themselves. We have a strong relationship between florida and israel, many hundreds of people over there looking to come home so i wanted to fill the void to be able to offer flights from israel back to the state of florida. And so, we had to work with the Israeli Government to be able to get clearance to have the planes, but were going to have the first planes are going to take off today in israel, arrive in florida on sunday, and we anticipate there may even be an additional plane, but as you know, theyre in sabbath right now so theyre not doing communications electronically. Once sundown happens, we think that theres going to be a couple hundred more people who are going to do. Were looking to service all of that, but we definitely anticipate bringing in the next few days, being able to repatriate hundreds of floridians back to the state. Neil i assume these are chartered planes, under you, the state . Can you explain how that works, all commercial traffic is stopped. Go ahead. Yeah, so we were an Emergency Response state. We have a lot of tools at our disposal, a lot of relationships so this is our department of Emergency Management leveraging those relationships in a variety of ways. We have contractors, we have relationships with airlines. So, all of that is in play. Some of it is about what aircraft can access their airport in israel. Some of it may be smaller aircrafts going nearby and then taking a larger plane there. So, all of thats happening, but this is just, i think, part of the good thing about being a floridian is stuff that were Locked And Loaded for. We never know whats going to happen, but we have a lot of resources at our disposal and a lot of knowhow and were putting it in practice at a time thats difficult for a lot of people in our state. Neil and i was wondering, the israel war changed a lot, not only the president ial race, but maybe washington and its response and more so, with this speaker battle still unresolved. Im just wondering, since the house cant do much until that is resolved, what do you think they should do . Well, one, theyve got to get their act together. I saw jim jordan won the nomination and hopefully hell be able to be speaker, i think hes a great guy, a great conservative, but the more it drags on it adds to the sense that these guys just cant shoot straight. Theyre running around like chickens with their head caught off. All kinds of drama, but not results that are delivered. Thats not how we do business in florida. Our view is, weve got to get the peoples business done. I dont have time for the other stuff. No political empty calories. Theyve got to start following that model because its and this is an issue, of course. I think israel, theyve got great defense. We have a longstanding Security Relationship with them, well continue that and be supportive going forward, but i think the larger issue is, theres a lot of problems in our country period and none of the problems are being addressed. You cant even do a speaker, that doesnt inspire a lot of confidence among the american people. Neil meanwhile, your opponent, donald trump, had said when it comes to this israeli conflict he is the only person who could protect israel and the only one who will. What do you think of that . Well, thats not true. I mean, i have a longstanding record of strong support for israel, florida and israel have had a tremendous relationship during the time ive been governor. When i was in congress, i was a leader and all of these issues about moving the embassy to jerusalem, we were putting the pressure on back in the day. We did things like urged the president to recognize sovereignty over the golan heights. Weve actually fought against the funding that the u. N. Has sent under this un r nunra to g because when you send money there it goes to the coffers of hamas. And iran sanctions, tighten up the sanctions, dont let them get oil revenue because theyll turn it around. Iran is the mothers milk of terrorism throughout the middle east so we understand all that, but i think what this moment shows is, this is a time for strong and steady leadership. This is not a time to be distracted. This is not a time to get awash in a soap opera or all the drama that weve seen so often in recent years. We need a president who is going to be there, who is going to be focused and disciplined on the peoples issues and not be distracted by a lot of the other stuff and ive Proven Ability to do that and i will do that going forward. Neil i understand. When you say the soap opera drama, are you saying thats donald trump . He has praised hezbollah saying theyre very smart. Amongst others. Neil he slammed Benjamin Netanyahu. How do you feel about those comments . So with the bibi, Attacking Bibi is a huge mistake and he harbors resentment because he congratulated biden on the election. And he comes out after the worst terror attack, and a leader should, even if you have personal grievances, rise above that and show solidarity and do whats best for the overall effort. So youre not going to see me taking pot shots at the leaders, especially leaders strong allies of the United States of america. I think that was an example of trump taking his issues and projecting that onto this Current Situation in a way that was a distraction and was not helpful at all. As a president , youve got to be willing to let a lot of that stuff go under the bridge. You cant respond to everything you perceive as a personal slight. Youve got to rise above that, look higher and youve got to focus on whats best for the american people. Neil governor desantis, thank you very much. Governor ron desantis of florida and again, this effort to get the floridians who want out of israel, out of israel. Thats a real challenge for anyone that wants to get out of israel.

At first blush it might seem odd talking about the border and the content of israel and whats happening there. Theres a direct connection between of fear of elements that come into the country and we have no way of Keeping Track of them. Those from more than 130 countries trying to get into this country and many from places like iran and lebanon and syria and on and on we go. Griff jenkins is at eagle pass, texas with more on that. Griff hey, neil. Good morning. Dont Take It From Me or you. Take it from dhss Threat Assessment they put out last month where they specifically say that terrorists may seek to exploit our Border Situation here at the homeland and they specifically highlight iran, which is the worlds leading terrorism sponsor country. Now, since this past monday, there have been nearly 20 iranian migrants apprehended at the border. Some 17 syrians, just in eagle pass where we are. On thursday we had two men in their 20s apprehended from lebanon, one from egypt. Now, they will all go through extensive scrutiny and hopefully find out who they are, why they came here and crossed illegally, but ultimately we dont know we can get correct information because we dont deal with most of these countries and certainly dont share intelligence with countries leak iran or syria. That poses the dangers that you see. Meanwhile, the numbers continue to come day in, day out. Our numbers, we have hundreds in large groups every day, weve been bringing it to you month after month here, and yet, nothing is changing here as the border continues to be unsecured and whats most important about this, neil, the agents are so busy, 90 of the work force every day are processing these large groups so you have 60plus miles here in this sector, from brownsville to san diego you have Literally Hundreds Upon hundreds of miles of unpatrolled wide open border for which someone would a terrorist intention could exploit that vulnerability. Now, Vivek Ramaswamy came to eagle pass and he spoke some how if he were to become president he would certainly address the border quickly because he sees it as a National Security risk and he sees that neither republicans or democrats are doing enough about it right now. Thats the situation here and what also, just leave you with this, neil, in the past week, just since monday they tell me in this sector theyve had over 10,000 migrant encounters weve within witnessing, 1,454 known gotaways, they saw them on cameras, couldnt bring them into custody and we dont know why theyre here and what their intentions are. Neil, well send it back to you. Neil scary stuff, griff. Grief jenkins at the border. In the meantime, this. Israel has no choice, but to crush hamas. Thats not Benjamin Netanyahu saying that, that is mike pence saying that. The former vicepresident is next. Here in the bay, our cas and all of our stuff where we want to go. But, our cars cant take us e with unpaid tolls. Vehicles with overdue, unpaid tolls may not be able to renew their registration until outstanding balances are paid. Payment assistance is available. Visit bayareafastrak. Org ase so go pay your unpaid tolls y and keep your wheels on the the goal is to eradicate hamas. That was Benjamin Netanyahu making it very clear that they shouldnt only survive in some power form in the gaza, an area that theyve dominated now since 2007, some date it back to 2005, but the formal transfer back then and that shouldnt be allowed, but taking it one step further, should they be eradicated period, crushed, killed, out of israel altogether . Vicepresident mike pence feels that way. He says you have to crush hamas and you have to do it now. The former vicepresident of the United States joins me. Mr. Vicepresident , very good to have you. Thank you, neil. Neil youre equally as Bibi Netanyahu on this subject, arent you . I think its important that every leader in america speak with one voice that in this moment, america stands with israel and we will stand with israel not only today, but tomorrow and every day until they achieve the objective of crushing hamas. Look, you just referred to it, neil. I was in the congress back in 2005 when the decision was made in the Bush Administration to turn over gaza to hamas. That is now a nearly 25year failed experiment. Hamas has become a beachhead for terrorism, but the unprecedented attack that took place a week ago today, seeing terrorists in hamas breach the border, overtake community, slaughter wmen, women, infant children is a moment israel has no choice, but to go in and to not stop fighting until theyve eliminated hamas once and for all. Neil in the meantime, here, the question becomes how do you prevent hamas figures from sneaking out with palestinians in this evacuation, if it ever comes to that because hamas has told them essentially dont do that, but how do you guard against that . Well, i think part of that is the reason why, you know, time is likely of the essence here. You know, ive seen reports on your air that theres Hostage Rescue Efforts underway by Israeli Defense forces. You know, several days ago i called on President Biden because we have americans held hostage. He ought to be directing joint special Operations Command to mobilize delta force or navy seals or both to make it clear to hamas that they either turn those americans and all of those israeli hostages over or were going to go in and get them, but i think at the end of the day, while i dont i dont expect israel to move one minute before they have chosen to move, i think ensuring that hamas does not escape their clutches here is vitally important. One of the ways to do that though is look, i have great compassion for innocent civilians in harms way and its another reason why i think, i think President Biden ought to pick up the phone and call the president of egypt and say youre going to open your border. Weve very closely with egypt, were their principal military supplier. During our administration we partnered with egypt on Counterterrorism Efforts in the sinai and i understand the concern about the Muslim Brotherhood and i understand president elsisis concerns about terrorists coming across the border. How about we start with women and children. Open up the border with egypt to women and children and the u. S. Can tell well partner with you for a refugee center. But to have egypt closing their border and not making it possible for people to escape what is absolutely imperative for israel to do and that is to go in, to hunt down, to destroy hamas, detroy their infrastructure and i push hard on the move. Neil donald trump said nothing like this occurred under him, it wouldnt have occurred if he were still there, paraphrasing, mr. Vicepresident , and he says hes the only person who can protect israel and only will who will, obviously hes including you in the mix of people who cant and wont, what do you think . Well, i think people that know my career, my career in congress, as a governor, as vicepresident. Ive stood strong with israel and if im president of the United States ill do that as well, but let me agree with my former running mate on one issue, i think that disastrous withdrawal from afghanistan under President Joe Biden has emboldened around the world. Intelligence came out that hamas started planning this invasion two years ago. What happened two years ago . The United States in that cut and run departure, the loss of 13 American Service members, taliban overruns and takes over afghanistan. Neil you might be right about that. Almost without firing a shot. Neil mr. Vicepresident , donald trump went so far as to say that Benjamin Netanyahu this was a screwup of israeli intelligence, that hezbollah is very smart. Ive raised it with all of our opponents. Im raising it with you, what do you think of what he said quickly . I thought the president s words, criticizing the Prime Minister of israel and referring to hezbollah as very smart were reckless and they show a lack of understanding about the seriousness of this moment. Look, this is a moment where the United States of america should be speaking and acting with one voice and that is a voice of resolve and determination to stand by israel and give them the support that they need to do what needs to be done in this moment and as ive said, hezbollah is not very smart. Hezbollah is evil. And to send a message to hezbollah and lebanon to terrorists ensconced in the assad regime in syria and of course, a deafening message to iran that the United States of america is prepared to do what is necessary to hold them accountable because theyre holding the leash on hamas and on hezbollah and its one of the reasons ive said that the administration ought to be sending the u. S. S. Eisenhower there and make it clear to all especially iran. Neil appreciate that. Tensions across the globe escalating as israels ful
