President biden, what worries about the potential Israeli Ground invasion . Hamas is the enemy, use the gaza strip. We begin with the Big Weekend Show with Fox News Alert, i am Aishah Hasnie along with pete hegseth, guy benson, welcome. The next stage is coming, thats a word from israeli Prime MinisterBenjamin Netanyahu as Israeli Military is quote significant Ground Operation in efforts to take out Hamas Terrorists. We now know tonight 29 americans were killed in those Terror Attacks on israel. Israel is stopping at nothing to take out,. Ready for the next stage, next stage is coming. Also tonight Idf Spokesperson doubling down on their message to residents of gaza city. Leave and dont go back until we say so. Warning Israeli Military will attack soon. The u. S. Says Eisenhower Carrier Strike group is joining the board Carrier Strike group in Eastern Mediterranean and a big show of force. A big part of the effort is to rescue more than 120 hostages being held right now by hamas and we dont know right now exactly how many are american. The state Department Says there are at least 15 u. S. Citizens currently missing. Hostages in gaza are the critical piece and we are on the clock so what you seek with missile strikes, the artillery, doing a couple things. His opening pathways were Infantry Units and 300,000 reservists to be able to go in and reduce risk when the counteroffensive initiates but its also designed to buy Israeli Defense forces high command enough time to be able to locate multiple structures, could be dozens of structures, dozens of tunnels for special Operations Forces to launch a multiple layered Hostage Rescue operation. While the president says the administration is doing everything it can to bring hostages shipped home, its quote working aroundtheclock along with Israeli Government to rescue them. All of the family who havent heard from their loved ones since they were kidnapped a week ago from hamas militants, they can only watch and wait. I have to hold onto hope because its the only option for me. Are family is desperate, we want information and family to return to us as soon as possible. I want to see our government focused on that being the priority. Okay, this is a very serious moment in history. Israel is readying for the Ground Invasion any moment now. Axios reporting today iran send a message to israel via the un saying we dont want to get involved but we will if theres further acclamation against hamas. We obviously are seeing groups moving closer to the mediterranean. Peter, i would ask, what you anticipate happening in the next couple of moments days and what should the u. S. Be doing . Its no surprise that iran is communicating the un. The folks in gaza are counting on condemnation coming quick and hamas has shown a willingness from the getgo not just the massacre but how they conduct themselves to want maximum civilian casualties and rally international socalled International Support to the cause and thats why netanyahu to thread a needle here, you got to get the retribution your people deserve the language of strength requires in the middle east and the gaza strip destroying, 29 americans and 120 plus hostages and maren might be right, this might be a giant buildup massive Hostage Rescue Situations but you need to do that without trying to entice has blocked in the north to open another front which does complicate things for the military if they do that. Lets talk about that, i was talking to an analyst this evening, an expert in the region in jerusalem a few days ago and he was telling me iran is playing a big chess game here. This is a multilayer, a second act could be coming in with got to Pay Attention to hezbollah in the north and lions done group, iranian foxy group in the west bank. If israel kneedeep in gaza, it could expose other front and you see this had an, youre talking the u. S. Possibly get involved here. I think this is and i agree with pete, iranian Operation Plan with hamas, we know iranian government is the biggest sponsor of terror in the world, we seen their actions across the globe from in argentina many years ago, decades ago settlements into what they use groups and has black and one of the big issues i think here is how iran is going to use this as pr front so iran putting everything on the backend and hamas is expecting this Ground Assault to rally troops so to speak in the public and whats going to happen now is you will see israel move in. You will see gaza, the shaking but they say the second phase, shaking of gaza and even if it netanyahu strategic, he has to send a direct to iran who will not allow you to move into that second phase. What you were talking about is something pete and i have seen and war zones, we seen in afghanistan where iran has been involved in the taliban as a proxy, we seen in iraq in the same issue and what we have seen is karen utilizing media amazing what we seen in new york with students in the streets, this is all part of their strategy and ive got to tell you, i am very concerned because we are moving closer and closer to expanding this far beyond the middle east with the u. S. Involved, the u. S. Has eisenhower there and our troops are waiting for actionable intelligence to possibly go in and rescue hostages but a lot of people i have been speaking to dont believe there is a good chance we will get the hostages out with this Ground Assault right now. The sick joke of iran putting out this statement through the un that if we get involved further, they are suddenly going to get involved but they dont want to. They are already all over this. Its a completely non credible thing for them to say, they are basically throwing the world with that Back Channel Statement they make public. You said netanyahu is starting a needle, i think President Biden is dreading a needle as well. The administration is trying to walk a tight line, Jacqui Heinrich, White House Correspondent has been reporting administration asked israel privately to delay operations in gaza while messages are given to civilians in gaza city but they officially say they have not asked israel to slow, they have been having discussions around that. They keep doing this back and forth with 6 billion, we have the right to freeze them but we are not freezing gun and privately saying, telling them its in limbo. What is going on with this administration . Sometimes politicians will say things for the cameras then something Behind Closed Doors thats not exactly a shock. This week the former Secretary Of State on my radio show, first interview since his about a week ago and her biggest piece of advice to the Biden Administration, United States government is not to tell israel what to do or what not to do. They have been attacked in this completely savage way and its completely unacceptable and israel has to do with that country has to do with our help to some extent to protect themselves and for one item sick of preemptively people lecturing israelis about how they ought to delay this or they shouldnt do that or could this be a war crime . A lot of those people want israel to have any option. They take it from hamas. If you want to make demands of who could bring about peace right now and help the people in gaza, not potentially get killed in this invasion, the people who can achieve that if they want to our hamas. They dont want to. Yet, they are almost out of the equation and public Conversatio Thomas is certainly using weakness and policy with iran from the beginning of the Biden Administration to make this move, i think iran new from the getgo how weak President Biden was. They planned this more than two years, this was a strategy on their part to use hamas as a proxy and a right, i was thinking to myself right now we dont know the second phase for a run will be. Netanyahu says is the second phase saying we are going on around us all but a radiance think ahead and iranians are expecting Ground Assault, my question is and maybe pete you know this, what can iran do to escalate further and how will i run escalate further to draw us in the rest of the world . Config not just utilizing un. They have options to do that if they want to but the instinct the white house from beginning has been both sides, ceasefire after 1300 dead israelis. That was the first tweet you s saw. And they deleted it and it was good but thats instinct. Palestinian millennial ready to talk of the bit with the older guard saying we will back is israel. Hamas, iran understand that instinct and they feel on netanyahu, but for israel had to do what it has to do and they have done was they need to, they have one them to get out, hamas wants them to stay. Much more discussion to come, join fox and support his william emergency fund, it will be for eight for military families, equipment for Public Hospitals and Trauma Counseling for thousands living in Bomb Shelters right now.

President biden faking a new promise to israel as a number of americans killed in the hamas terror attack climes. Comments from moments ago, we will show them to you next. We are back with Fox News Alert, President Biden addressing Terror Attacks in israel minutes ago at the minards dinner campaign. Yesterday i spoke for an hour with the Family Member of those Americans Still unaccounted for in his room call. Theyve endured agony of not knowing whats happening. David sponge, david sponge is live with an update. According to a reporter in the room, there was a Brief Interruption by protesters who yelled, let gaza live, let gaza live, hes not hard to make out on camera, the president s are not are not here the protester was saying however, he did go on to say this about the tragic situation in the middle east. A week ago we saw eight manifest jewish people hundred 1300 innocent lives lost including at least 227 americans he held hostage. The top priority for the white house when it comes to this war is mining the home missing americans before that happens, they have to be found. At least 15 unaccounted for, the president believes some maybe held hostage. Those Holding American hostages in gaza you say what . Meant i say we do everything in our power to find them, everything in our power and im not going to go into detail but working like hell on it. Yesterday in philadelphia for president told the crowd he spoke to a member of those missing on a zoom call in this administration is working around the clock to learn more, the presence messaging was reinforced earlier today on Secretary Of StateAntony Blinken visited saudi arabia while the countries Foreign Ministry did not want mention, china, secretary clinton did, he did not hold back and called Hamas Terrorist Organization and both agreed safe passage for civilians is critical as she mentioned at the top, sources tell Jacqui Heinrich the u. S. Urged israel to delay any Ground Invasion into gaza until of troops was secured when pressed about things regarding the Ground Invasion biggest worry about the Ground Invasion one word death. God, we look at 15 americans missing, possibly being held hostage the president spoke to Family Members friday apparently 14 of those missing, now 15 spoke to the members friday, how do you think President Biden is handling this, considering. Do you think the president has done enough sufficiently to address this issue with hamas . First of all, the agony is unmatchable. Twentynine dead americans now, more than a dozen it seems likely held hostage and up at night unable to function, its got to be horrible. I think President Biden has had really bad policies that led us to this. Ive been very critical and we all should be cleared id about what his administration has done. I think some of the public statements hes made to the world have been very strong. No equivocation, lock stock and barrel behind israel which is the right tone to adopt, they are really going out of their way not to mention iran a reference irans involvement and thats a question in my mind of light and how long they keep that up. I would love to know how the president was received at that dinner. This is a leftwing lgbt group and i have been personally shocked to see so many people in the Lgbtq Community out of intersection allie or whatever, standing effectively with hamas against israel with which is Pluralistic Society with gave rise to say thats not the case in gaza is an understatement and i wonder how bidens clear message played and not among a lot of people. I felt the same way, i saw it in the streets and the members of the Lgbtq Community margin very pro palestinian, i dont know if they understand the difference, a lot of them are young people with no concept of whats going on in that region. How do you think his response has been . President biden did have a call with Prime Minister yahoo and reached out to the palestinian authority. How you think the United States balances this out . A difficult situation to try to deal with both opposing groups. I think all you have to do is think about what it would look like if this was your sister, your father grandmother, how would you feel right now if your government one week later had no answers for you . Your families were still being held . Is not just hostages, its also americans stuck in israel not being able to get out. Do you know what congressman cory mills was doing all last week . He wasnt here picking a speaker on capitol hill playing politics, he was over there on the ground getting our people out while the government was trying to figure it out. It could only get worse depending on what they decide to do with those hostages who are human beings and we saw what prices did showcasing if hamas does that, where does it go from there . Congressman mills was on that bus bringing people home and that was so important, a great show. Israeli forces in a race against time to rescue hostages held captive by hamas. Next, Underground Tunnels pose a deadly challenge in that quest. We are back news Fox News Alert, Rescue Efforts for 120 hostages intensifying Israeli Forces who closer to a Ground Invasion of gaza. Efforts becoming vastly more dangerous and completed because hamas uses Tunnel Systems for underground combat. That is the challenge of Urban Warfare and fighting insurgency and Tears Organization that hides itself beneath houses in the schools, in courtyards, and hospitals and medical facilities, the people of gaza themselves or not the enemy. Most is the enemy. Sarah, a huge advantage hamas will have in gaza, they know where arms stores, where all of the latest tunnels are. We do know how good israels intelligence is, probably some but not a complete picture like hamas does. That will be for the terrace. It will definitely be to the Terrace Advantage and israel tries to map out Israeli Defense forces have been good up mapping out gaza going to figure out how they can maneuver through gaza and im sure they set up Walk Villages to try to make it as quickly as possible for our soldiers and battlefield its always difficult when you fight insurgents. Many times these insurgents use children, women and children as human shields. They make it almost impossible for us to penetrate and i think that is what is going to be the most difficult part for Benjamin Netanyahu, the balance like how do we protect those taken . Can we even protect them and can we mitigate anything like Public Relations disaster for him is when hes worried about the i do think they will have a very difficult time at the onset having the upper hand. That said, i do believe israel has incredible intelligence capabilities. They have a serious Intelligence Failure with what recently happened and we did, too and the rest of the world that, to but i do believe israel is going to eventually gain the upper hand on this, i just pray those hostages there can be free before this defensive takes place. The Public Relations youre talking about is part of the hamas playbook. I want to help enable that knowing how much of the media will react which is why israelis try to minimize or illuminate civilian casualties, hamas targets civilians on the side, they sacrifice their own civilians for that Propaganda Offensive already underway. Aishah hasnie, from of journalism perspective, what does contextualized and responsible coverage of the death count look like . Facts are facts. You have to report as happening on the ground. My question if you dont mind, i wonder how much, we keep hearing these readouts Secretary Of State talking to this country and that country and turkey and hes been on this to her, i want to know how far we are getting in terms of a regional partners together, egypt, jordan, qatar, turkey, leveraging security here somehow i dont know if we need to get rid of a bus in palestine whos been in really a nonexistent leader, how do we need to work to change the situation here . Can it happen, is it too late . Can we turn this situation around or are we looking at a situation or of place of no return . I would like to know how we are engaging and leveraging and what we are saying why are they stepping up . Why is it egypt opening up borders to the south, why are they only allowing american citizens or dual nationals to come through . Why are we putting more pressure on our partners . You have an up close and personal experience in 2018, you got a tour of Abandon Tunnels after israel was able to go take them over, lets watch that clip from a couple of years ago. Here we are roughly 700 meters from the gaza border inside the tunnel. Hamas looks to build this structure. Killing inside israel. I want a sense of what its like to fight and a tunnel like this because in the infantry were usually outside different conflicts, your underground but this is another level. Psychological challenge. When you look at the amount of Investment Hamas put into the tunnels, its staggering. Money and resources that were supposed to be put to provide infrastructure for their own people, important to the ground and terror tunnels. The tunnel on the screen here is the type of tunnel i saw which is a tunnel attempted to use for decades to infiltrate israel so you say is the gaza strip, they built a tunnel at various points and sizes to get underneath the border wall they could never find an opportunity to get over which we now know they did and pop up amongst the civilian population which was the biggest fear of people in south israel, hamas in the backyard in the middle of the night and we didnt see it coming. This is a basic graphic of the basic tunnel. Let me fastforward to basic sense on the next screen of what the gaza strip looks like, it looks like spaghetti. What we know at a baseline, there are 300 miles of tunnel, 300 linear miles and we are not talking about the tunnel i showed you, we are talking multiple layers, multiple floors, barracks where people can sleep and live and headquarters and meeting rooms, multiple entrances and exits so as you clear the gaza strip as israel hopes, youre not just clearing buildings and floors in the buildings, youve got to go subterranean and maybe clear a building and people went underground and come back up and this is why you mentioned regional partners, thats important because if you can walk back from having to do Hostage Rescue instead get hostage release, thats what you want if you could put enough Profit Pressure and leverage to get americans released, do it now because the idea of coordinated Hostage Rescue inside with that dense of a population, i dont care how good your intelligence is or how good Hostage Rescue Team is, this is graduatelevel with impossible circumstances to navigate. A nightmare from the tactical standpoint i would imagine and would you guess that at least some hostages are subterranean in this . I seen reporting about and why wouldnt they . There probably are levels undetected. If there were Tunnels Israel could not detect for many years, there are new layers of tunnels underneath gaza hamas controls that israel is not aware of and every Hostage Message you have, you want a. , a model of that objective as much as you can. They have rehearsed on something they knew was there and you will not have that in this situation. On a crucial piece pete made, theres an enormous amount of aid sent to gaza including the United States hamas squandered so much of the money on Military Preparation like this. They take money turn it into terrorism. Hamas leadership made it evident when they spoke to Russia Television and said the United States collecting the money, we looked as if and made it look as if we were focused on humanitarian efforts in our region and area and we fooled the world because while the israelis loves life and made it clear, we see something beyond life. We planned and strategized and they did and planned and strategized utilizing the money and a lot of money from iran and i think he understands that as well, a lot of the money comes from iran to build the tunneling systems, i was there two months ago with idf forces Israeli Defense forces and able to see with my own eyes how deep the tunnels run. This is these are tunnels not just made with United Nations and u. S. Funding hundreds of millions of dollars with porton but this is money directly from iran so they could build the tunnels and utilize the and we know now based on what they are saying they plan to do a lot more. Theres a lot more money out there, there are a lot more action plans, i believe actionable plans like iran and hamas and i dont think its the end of it. You mentioned how deep the tunnel was, 79 meters, 250 feet. Thats one tunnel, imagine how deep it may be and its not just the north, there are tunnels throughout the gaza strip. What is the capacity of these tunnels . The pump electricity, they pump air and provide oxygen, supplies. A lot of civilians. Very sophisticated. We believe that for now but a lot of unknowns in the equation which is pretty scary. Coming up, tempers flaring at home and abroad as pro Palestinian Protesters if you can call them that, demanding israels destruction and you wont believe what sarah encountered at one such protest will show you after this. Do you care about the babies beheaded . That was a made up story thats [bleep], show me the [bleep] pictures now. Show me ctures. You are full o f bleak. Yes a free Shower Package. And if you call today youll also receive 1,500 off your entire order call now to receive a free Shower Package plus 1,500 off your brandnew safe step walkin tub s we are back with a Fox News Alert, the work is drawing a wave of antisemitism and anti israel sentiment around the world. Here at home thousand will taking to the streets of london, many are calling for the Total Annihilation of israel. Five, six, seven, eight. [chanting] palestine. Free, free to go surprised jewishamerican tunes are hearing for their safety as a waiver of protests and rallies hit colleges and University Campuses all caps the country. During the day of jihad, antisemitic sentiment floors. Sarah carter was in the thick of it in times square. How do you respond when people say these babies were beheaded, some burned to death, there were children who were killed. Why not speak out against that . Protests later, why protest now . They are killing hundreds of lives right now even as we speak and we are protesting until something stops. Do you think its going to ever stop . The problem is as long as gaza is led by a terror organization, i dont see any different. Do you care about the babies that were beheaded . That was a made up story, it [bleep]. Show me the [bleep] pictures n now. Show me the pictures. You are a lying full of bleak. They did not kill their babies, that is bleak. There is no validation of that whatsoever, no proof of that. Then yahoo is basically running his own [bleep] narrative of what he wants to excuse him self as killing and holocaust palestinians. In the middle of new york city and say everything, its crazy. Im dont understand how americans are not afraid of this man. A one man terraces in another mans freedom fighter. I got to tell you tell us. God bless you for dealing with so much passion and emotion and keeping calm and being able to listen to what people really in their bones believe it. I have not felt that kind of hate since coming from the war zone, that vitriol and i was standing there in astonishment thinking to myself, what happens in america ask what happens now . We can feel tension, a small group of israelis across the street, thousands, thousands of pro Palestinian Protesters against israel and i thought to myself, i know guy you and i talked about this, there is Propaganda Campaign that has intensified in the United States to where so many of our young, students and even those you saw older protesters as well, absolutely believe in their heart israel is an Apartheid State Israel is committing genocide and no discussion with them, no way to reason and the fear on the israeli side is whats going to happen to me . What the man said to me at the end was important, he said hamas could be in this crowd. There may be terrorists in the crowd and they were saying new york is not immune to attacks of terrorism. We saw that september 11, 2001. We seen them with Train Bombings and we saw london, weve seen Terror Attacks all over the world when it comes to extr extremist. The problem is, these are extreme views. There was a part of me was a little nervous but i did want to hear everybody out and i did believe everybody had a voice and everybody should respond and i think what it exposed was here in america we are at war. The denial of reality. No babies were killed . Thats someone either deeply ignorant or a liar or even worsd placards you see, 20 of israels population is arab. They have political parties, they serve in the government, the only jews in gaza also true. The only jews by contrast in gaza are held hostage by hamas right now. Thats the difference in these people take the side effectively of hamas. I refuse to call a lot of these rallies pro palestine rallies or anti israel rallies. These are pro hamas, pro butcher jews, hate rallies. Antisemitism. Who called for the rally . The head of hamas called for a day of chaos so precisely what they are, damage to whatever legitimate part of their because they have. You reap what you sow in Higher Education want to. Middle Eastern Studies funded by medical organizations for Years Company one narrative to the heads of kids. Make no mistake, these rallies are meant to intimidate and a message of antisemitism not just free speech rally. And we have seen the rise of antisemitism since 2021 weve seen it in major cities attacks on the jewish people, attacks on Orthodox Jews as well and this year we have seen that escalate and there are a lot of people concerned about what can happen in the near future as the work continues. Inspiring rescues and stories of survival, thats next. As we continue coverage on the crisis in the middle east, survivors and families of hostages pleading for help as the war intensifies. The family of one near College Student captured earlier this week put out an emotional statement honoring saying this, hes award theater, great son, friend and passionate giving person after graduating high school decided to defer his college acceptance, connecting with our familys roots. This impacted his decision to stay in israel and do what he believed in, serving and protecting the people of israel. A 22yearold woman saved by her Israeli Police officer father after she sent a text saying simply, they are close. To one apartment to another, getting through the windows, break the doors and start to shoot, people screaming. He starts to shoot like nothing. I fell down on the ground and start to run. If you dont stand up, we are going to die, we are going to die. They were shooting people, kids. I dont want hamas anymore in my life. They need destroyed, one by one. They come to kill us. Gut wrenching and enraging and its almost like that woman that experienced has been forgotten by a lot of people, they went straight to blame the israel but those stories are real enzymatic. We went to where i was going to go, compare this to 9 11 on an exponential scale with proportionality, youve got to never forget a lot of people will want to forget what happened that day. The slaughter of innocents, a radical enemy, the only solution is to totally crush but its going to move to both sides, what if it already has. You have to just keep coming back to that and reminding people sheer brutality of what occurred been requested week when you hear these stories and i have children, i think about what those families went through, i cant even imagine. If i received that phone call from my daughter or son i cant even imagine what that would be like and you are right, we cannot forget but its less than a week and this is what is astonishing to me, how, in less than a week, do we forget that . How in less than a week does hamas manage to do this day of rage and have protesters all over the world against israel when it was israel that was the victim of their horrible Terrorist Actions . Ill make my points really quickly before i go into something else, excuse me for that. We need to wake up. This was a massive Intelligence Failure by our government, i dont know why we missed this. We should have predicted this and have no something was happening, i dont know what happened with our asset we no longer have, and impact on this but we have to figure out whats next, something could be coming and we have to ensure the American People go home and sleep at night and feel safe, thats the most important thing to learn from this. With that, we would take a quick break and come back with final thought from the panel on the Big Weekend Show. Back now that Fox News Alert is to prepare us for an imminent Ground Invasion here are our final quick thoughts. I will go first guys. This week i was trying to figure out how to get an american colleague out of israel pretty reminded me of what happened in ukraine and afghanistan for a talk to a College Classmate who was crying trying to figure out how to get out and get back home. Talking to cory mills about his evacuation. Why do we continuously find ourselves in the situation over and over again with this administration . I cannot wrap my head around it. Quits a weakness i was a price for the americans who are missing. Prayers for the Israeli Defense forces made they kill everyone at last one of those Hamas Terrorists in the gaza strip so their kids are race without the fathers that exacted that kind of revenge on israel. I have to agree with pete. Prayers for everyone out there. Prayers for peace in our world. Prayers hamas is eliminated the families are rescued and more importantly israel is a lesson for all of us it is a warning we are and a predicament that is just as bad as israel was in. If we do not wake up im very concerned. Israel is telling innocent people to get out of the way of bombs and hamas is telling those innocent people to stay and get bombs. Thus the most important fact to remember the next three days. Absolutely. But does it for us will see you back here tomorrow at 7 00 for the Big Weekend Show. Life, Liberty Levin starts right now
