Right now, israeli fighters are preparing to invade gaza after hamas militants launched a deadly attack on israel last week. Thousands of israelis and palestinians have been killed since the attacks and the war began in that includes 29 americans, 15 others remain unaccounted for, potentially being held hostage by Hamas Terrorists. For more on todays meeting between blinken and saudis crown prince, lets go now to molly line in new york. Molly. Hi, marianne. When asked by reporters about how his meeting with the crown prince of this very key us ally went. Us Secretary Of StateAntony Blinken said a quick two words, quote, very productive. Blinken has been crisscrossing the middle east since the historic and horrific attack perpetrated by hamas and israel. And this particular meeting with Crown Prince Mohammed Bin Salman is significant because in recent weeks, the United States was set to broker major progress towards saudi arabias normalization of relations with israel, progress toward that goal had been put on pause in the wake of hamass attack, which may have been part of the iranian backed terror groups very goal, reuters reports. The crown prince has spoken with the iranian president in an effort to temper further violence all across that region. And one source suggests that saudi arabia would need to prioritize further concessions for the Palestinian People should Normalization Talks be resumed. Blinken met earlier with uae president Mohammed Bin Zayed and expressed appreciation for that. Uae leaders conveyed calming of the Terror Attacks on civilians as his trip continues. Mary anne. All right. Thank you, molly, for that. Earlier saturday morning, the Navy Aircraft carrier uss Dwight Eisenhower was deployed to that region after a day long delay. Its now the second carrier in the mediterranean. President biden spoke by phone on saturday with Palestinian Authority president saying the us is ready to support humanitarian efforts in gaza. Pentagon officials, however, stressed the us military is advising israel only. They also insist there is zero intention of putting us forces on the ground in israel or gaza. Stay with Fox News Channel for the very latest on the israeli a hamas war. Im marian trying to deal about below to the hamas up militants for its carnage last weekend 1300 dead and israel put a prins you noted 29 americans with 150 hostages its belief 15 americans could be among them. Situation on the ground in the gaza very bad right now. Hundreds of thousands of civilians fleeing from the northern side of the gaza strip down to the south. Israel said to them they should leave. They are now taking that seriously. It looks like the northern parts of the devastating gaza strip from all these airstrikes will be the focus of this Ground Invasion which could be coming up. Everybody trapped inside. Including a Palestinian Americans and other dual nationalities who still have not come out. As for this situation here, there is a lot of activity along the border. Hezbollah basically striking as it wants to and an elf came in saturday now but the military for change of buyer between israel and jon fort militants across the border casualties on both sides we heard some explosions earlier tonight they were from Hezbollah Rockets coming from syria. This is the Nightmare Scenario for jerusalem they could be Facing A Multi Front War once they start getting serious in gaza but things escalating across the region. Aishah we have been emailing backandforth this evening on some reporting there might be a delay in the Ground Invasion because of the weather. What has the weather been like . And could that be a possibility . It is a possibility. We had our first rain here about an hour ago for about half an hour that we have seen our entire week here on the ground. That New York Times reports a good article quoting three Israeli Defense officials saying what basically they have been saying about a little bit more definitively in the coming days there will be a Ground Invasion. They had mentioned that one point in the article that cloud cover on saturday, sunday maybe even a monday might be causing problems for aerial activity for Drone Activity for surveillance. So the Ground Invasion could be delayed a couple of days. That is one reason why it might be happening. But also probably to try to sort the situation out on the ground in gaza especially for nationals that are trying to get out it is serious for everybody on all sides of the border. Aishah we know the official at least the beginning of the offensive has already been underway for a few days so far. Greg talcott we know you be watching us closely force thank you and stay safe. Lets bring in now former spokesperson of the israeli consulate in new york veteran diplomat. Thank you so much sir for joining us this evening. I want to just pick up where we left off with greg on the New York Times reports that israel might be delaying this Ground Offensive because of the weather according to three officials and israel can you confirm that reporting . Does weather have anything to do with what we see in the next couple of days . Thank you for having me. Whether it is one of the considerations. But one thing that is very, very clear also from the report but the situation on the ground is that israel will move forward with dismantling the ability its very presence on our southern border after the barbaric attack, massacre and slaughter that occurred only a week ago inside israel. I will tell you this though at least this time our soldiers continuously has palestinians to leave the area or hamas to give them a chance to live which is much more than was given to 1400 of our civilians who were butchered men, women, elderly and children by this barbaric nazi organization. Let me ask about that in the current moment the egyptian border and rafah has not been open to the Pestilence Events but also to americans there are dual citizens of all sorts of countries that are still stuck in the gaza strip and not able to leave right now. It is not clear white the egyptian border is not open. Does that Play A Factor into israels calculus when it decides to move in on the Ground Invasion . On the egyptian issue the question should be addressed to the egyptian representative. I can say what comes in the Israel Defense forces we abide by international law. That is where our spokespeople come out even from within the army and arabic to explain to gazans who are innocent they need to leave the area and provide a humanitarian corridor work to the south and at the same time we are trying to liaise with other organizations and in coordination with the United States. Unfortunately hamas insists on Perpetrating War Crimes using its own civilians as Human Shields using the american hostages the israeli hostages and other nationalities as Human Shields and at the same time targeting israeli civilians and as i said double war crimes from him horrendous organization that should no longer exist on our border. And i want to make it clear this is not an israel hamas battle this is life versus forces of darkness this is civilization against barbarians and we know it starts with israel and the jews on the jew among the nation does not end there. This battle belongs to the entire world. Aishah is there any possibility, any discussion about possible Hostage Exchange . Perhaps working with regional partners on an exchange for israeli hostages for perhaps palestinian prisoners . Negotiate was an enemy thats determined to move through with your annihilation like a hamas however im sure the israeli authorities and government will be very open to some sort of an understanding should hamas cease fire and come to the border with the one or 50 plus hostages that they have been holding for the past week eight days up to now. The fact is hamas is not done so has condemned the gaza strip and its people to the kind of destruction we are seeing at the moments. That is a tragic tragic elements of. Unfortunately do not see enough of this outrage which for some reason is targeted at the state of israel rather than the one organization in the course of the last 15 years has turned gaza into a miserable city of terror and truly one of the most horrendous Human Abundances that can be existence on earth today. It is truly a tragedy for the people of gaza that hamas is there. Aishah i know you cannot tell us your plans we understand that. But how difficult will the Ground Invasion be . I would imagine to try to get the hostages that we heard about the tunnels weve heard about how difficult and dense gaza city and gaza in general is. How difficult will it be for Israeli ForcesDefense Forces to go doortodoor really looking for the hostages . Is there a hope you will find them . There is always hope there is always determination for it and like you said theres a lot of difficulties in navigating in such an urban area especially with an organization that lacks any shred of humanity like the Nazi Terrorist Organization hamas however the level of determination and resilience within the israeli army and public is incredible pretty specially compared to what we have seen in the Israelite Society in the past few years and weeks of political discourse. It is clear to us that hamas can no longer exist in the adjacent territory will be a constant danger for any person any of our civilians in adjacent to that. So it needs to be done will be done. Aishah we will be watching, the whole world is watching closely. We appreciate your time and your thoughts on the show. Thank you so much. Thank you for having me. Absolutely break coming up thousands or rally in times square major cities across the u. S.

We are not all right when writer in the city of new york you have those that celebrate at the same time when the devastation is taking place up in our city. [cheering] we are not all right. Aishah new york mayor eric adams declaring has no nonsense response to scores of a pro hamas anti israel protests that we are watching happening as it is here in the u. S. And across the world. The mayor says we are not all right to read the sentiment may go beyond the current state of emotional and Psychological Conditions for americans. Threrecent surprise Attacks By S Has israel and allies in a bit of Shock Scratching Heads And Hs Such A Breach could happen against one of the most fortified National Borders in the world. Just this week at our Southern Border Two lebanese nationals were apprehended and midtier concerns so the question now, how not all right are we . Less from former associate white House Counsel to president george w. Bush jamel good to see again pray thank you for joining us. When you look at the protest happening now just in our country but around the world what are your biggest concerns . I believe in the Louvre Museum and paris was closed over this youve got jewish communities who feel very unsafe. Look at this and what is your top concern . Looks obvious its usually troubling of the u. S. Was attacked on 9 11 we lost 3000 americans nearly that day. The world rallied in support of us but nobody rallied in support of isis im sorry that the time al qaeda which eventually became isis in parts. Instead the world arose around us and the justice of our because now we see with happening israel and other Terrorist Group A group thats been labeled a Terrorist Group by the United States in the Late 90s Conducting A Massive Attack on israel and the equivalent of the population be roughly between 10 16 9 11 and you see people rallying around those who conducted the attack. There could be note defense to see these protests taking place in america, in ou and our streen the streets of europe its one thing to have concerns about the palestinian cause its another thing to support a Terrorist Group that killed 1300 people and a one go of 9 million in israel. Six people are anxious and afraid this will spiral wondering how in the world there couldve been such an Intelligence Failure here in the u. S. To not have seen this coming, do not have been able to alert our strongest ally in the mid east this might be coming. Hard to ask about the moves administration is making right now the second Carrier Strike group closer to israel and the mediterranean. But our White House Reporter is reporting the administration is actually asking israel to delay the Ground Invasion an until the humanitarian core doors are op open. U. S. Official pushing back on that think they have not asked israel to slow down. What do you make of the moves this administration has made in recent days and in totality hasnt help make american seen any safer. Administration set a pretty good job putting in strong statements. Making clear our support of israel. But calling thats what it is its a Terrorist Attack in setting forces to the goal we are going to need to be supplying israel with a lot more capabilities we need to be supplying them with th west simo fight this war and ultimately take out and destroy destroy hap it to the ground. They cannot accept another attack like this it is unsustainable and as a result hamas will take into the ground for the challenge of course was to point out and israelis recognize as you have millions of palestinians in the Northern Gaza where theyre operating here in the next day or two. The administration was asking to slow thats interesting theyre saying they are not. Thats ultimately going to be israels call whether and when they go its kind of amazing they provided any notice they are going into at least allow people to move out. Got about 1 Million People moving south the resource the border or think of for now we are going to stop for the real question is why ou are dual nationals and americans and the like and if necessary palestinians will be going from rafah into egypt records you have americans dual citizen stuck there wondering what the State Department is doing but im sure there is some talking with egypt but we do not have answers right now that the rafah is still right thank you for joining us we hope to have you back, thanks. Up the next Hundreds Of Americans another four nationals in the gaza strip egypt is refusing to let them leave through their Border Crossing. We will have more on that part of the story next.
