Martha good afternoon. Im Martha Maccallum in new york. Theres 22 americans who have been killed so far. We hope that number will not go higher at this point. We also now know that there are 17 confirmed missing americans and the white house now confirms that a number of them are hostages which raises a number of questions about the back and forth and the understanding that those individuals are indeed being held by hamas. So hamas is using at least 100 people as Human Shields or leverage for their cause inside of gaza city. These are the terrified Family Members of those that are kidnapped and those who are defined as missing. Watch this. Theyre not part of this war. Citizens and civilians should not be taken. The number 1 message were trying to convey is that time is critical. She was shouting, mommy, they shout at us. Were all wounded. Theyre taking children, women, back to gaza to use as Human Shields.

He joins us with his thoughts on the current breaking news. You had a guest on earlier that is calling thats what it is. Its a ruse. Its a gamble by hamas right now to buy for more time into set up for political circumstance. No matter what happens, israel goes in or israel delays, they still make israel look like the aggressor in this case. Anything is further from the truth. It is only delaying the inevitable destruction of hamas. John we had senator John Cotton On and he looked back at the world war ii experience. There is Unconditional Surrender by germany. Unconditional surrender by japan. Why isnt President Biden calling for an Unconditional Surrender by hamas and a release of all the hostages .
