this is a special edition of the ingraham angle from washington, d.c. i hope everyone had a wonderful thanksgiving with your family. we have a big show planned for you don't. victor davis hanson, stephen miller, ned ryun and charlie hurt are all here. but, first, israel and hamas at this moment are engaged in a temporary cease-fire set to go on for just a few days. hamas releasing a total of 24 hostages. 39 palestinians. we go live now there to tel aviv where fox's jeff paul is standing by with the latest. jeff? >> yeah, lisa, a bit of mixed emotions tonight here in israel. obviously a huge sense of relief, 13 hostages from israel being released today. but sort of bitter knowing that there are more than 200 who remain under hamas control. at least inside gaza. but, if this cease-fire that started today at 7:00 a.m. over and over again for the next three days. in total hamas today releasing 24 hostages. 13 israelis, 11 foreign nationals. among the israelis freed, we know that four of them were kids. ages from 2 years old to 9 years old. now, one of those kids, ohad munsder turned 9 years old while being held captive by hamas. three are also mothers and six are elderly women. but none of the three americans who were held captive have been freed benjamin spoke about the hostage release saying is he working to assure everyone eventually makes it home. >> i emphasize to you, the families and to you, the citizens of israel, we are committed to the return of all our. this is one of the goal of the war and we're committed to aachieving all the goals of the war. >> critical we keep an eye on this current temporary cease-fire. that allowed this hostage release today. with the cease-fire. you saw more aid coming into gaza, critical aid for the civilians who call gaza home. that's when hamas then handled over the hostages to the red cross who brought them to the wrath that crossing into egypt to israel. you know the more than 30,000 palestinian prisoners released. the israeli government has a list of the names. they haven't made that public just yet. we are hearing 13 beam could be released again tomorrow and in the same sort of fashion and we are learning here on the ground from reports from local media that 8 of them could be kids. lisa? >> lisa: jeff, important reporting, thank you. next we go live to nantucket where joe biden finally emerged from his vacation to address the cease-fire. joining me now is fox's lucas tomlinson. lucas, what's the latest? >> lisa, president biden in his remarks today said he thought the initial hostage release went well. though it's notable no americans were released today. he was asked today in that press conference afterwards and was very candid when he was asked when are the american hostages coming home. >> we don't know when that will occur but we expect it to occur. i don't trust hamas to do anything right. i only trust hamas to respond to pressure. >> well, two dozen hostages released by hamas say in exchange for dozens of palestinian prisoners, some convicted of murder, lisa, up to 10 american hostages are still in gaza tonight: one of whose hostages who turned 4 years old today, the white house hopes the first americans will be released tomorrow. [shouting] free palestine. >> not all smooth sailing for the president today in nantucket. biden amend the first lady were met by protesters after walking to lunch those remarks here in town. those protesters also followed the president and his family, including hunter biden to the annual christmas tree lighting ceremony. in his remarks, president biden also said he hopes this four-day pause will be extended to get more hostages released and, perhaps, a longer cease-fire. he was asked by a reporter if he has been putting pressure on israeli prime minister benjamin to end the war. biden chose his words carefully. >> i have encouraged the prime minister to -- to focus on trying to reduce the number ever casualties while he is attempting to eliminate hamas which is a legitimate objective. >> now, while americans were enjoying their thanksgiving dinner, we are also learning that american forces attacked four times yesterday by the middle east by iran and its proxies. there have been over 70 attacks by the forces in the middle east since the middle of last month, lisa. >> lisa: lucas, i wanted to get you on this. israel had said its objective to is to eradicate hamas. how does this cease-fire impact that objective? >> well, it certainly helps hamas, remember, one of the conditions of this deal is israel had to stop launching airstrikes inside gaza but also had to pull its drones so the surveillance will definitely be limited, perhaps, american satellites and spy satellites in space could help with some of that reconnaissance. something also interesting happened today, lisa. hundreds of palestinians gazans were rushing back north where they had fled and certainly most likely sent there by hamas. so that is going to impact the targeting once the airstrikes resume. but there is no question hind is putting pressure on israel's prime minister to extend this cease-fire to get more hostages released. certainly that will hurt the effort to fully eradicate hamas. lisa? >> lisa: thanks, lucas. and that is a goal that needs to be achieved. joining me now is nathan sills, former ambassador at large in counter-terrorism coordinator under president trump. and stephen miller, former senior adviser to trump and founder of american first legal. jason, let's start with you. hamas has had these hostages since october 7th. why now? what's the objective there? >> i think the reason we are starting to see hostages released is because pressure works israel has been clear that it intends to apply overwhelming military pressure against hamas leadership. against hamas networks and foot soldiers. because hamas is feeling the heat they are now in a position where they have to release hostages. they are not doing it out of the goodness of their heart. they did it because they calculated in their interest to do so because the israeli pressure has been so intense. let's be clear this a good day for the hostages coming out. bittersweet day for them as well. every one of these people who have has come out has either lost family members or has other family members still being held by these hamas terrorists in unspeakable conditions. we should be happy today for those who are able to be released. but this is just the tip of the iceberg. >> also concerns there has been reports previously that biden has slow-walked this ground invasion. vo-walked israel's response. steven, i want to play this interview from sky news because israel is fighting a war but they are also fighting a propaganda war. let's listen to this, and then i want to get you on the other side. >> does israel not think that palestine lives are valued as highly as israeli lives? >> that is an astonishing accusation. if we could release one prisoner for every one hostage, we would obviously do that. it's outrageous to suggest that the fact that we are willing to release prisoners convicted of terrorism offenses, more of them than we are getting our own innocent children somehow suggests we don't care about palestinian lives? really that's a disgusting accusation. >> lisa: can you see it in the israeli spokesperson face. you are asking me this question, right? talk about this propaganda where that israel has had to fight. >> it's astonishing, really. you have a situation where israel is being forced to release hardened killers, cold blood terrorists murderer he is in exchange for who? grandmas and little kids whose family members were brutally murdered and raped that's the difference here. and you are talking about a group, hamas, no regard for human life. they actively detest anyone who does not share their murderous ideology and they take pleasure, they take satisfaction in the pain and suffering of jews. how do you live alongside a neighbor like that? you can't and the sad truth is that this cease-fire and we understand why israel did this, to get these hostages back, but this cease-fire allows hamas to retrench, allows hamas to refortify. allows hamas to hide so it can wage more barbaric and savage attacks against israel. i will just add one more point. it's unthinkable that we in the west are letting people into our countries who support hamas. what in god's name are we doing in europe and america that we want anyone who thinks positive about this organization anywhere near our country or family? nathan conversation steven just pointed out. we had a record number of people in the terror watch list caught at the southern border, let alone who have gotten away with the got away. i mean, what's the threat to the homeland right now? you know, how concerned are you that we have allowed, you know, hamas network into the united states? >> well, i think we have to be concerned about the possibility of follow-on attacks. whether or not hamas has deliberately sent operatives here to the u.s. to commit attacks, there is always the risk that people who are already here, whether legally or illegally might say, you know what? killing jews sounds like a pretty good way to spend a wednesday afternoon. and we have seen a dramatic increase in anti-semitic incidents since the october 7th hamas attacks on israel. you know, jews in the united states represent just about two.5% of the population. according to the fbi. they are the victims of more than 60% of all religiously motivated hate crimes. and the number of these attacks on jews in america has gone up by more than 400 percent according to the antidefamation league this year compared to last year. so we have to be very, very serious about anti-semitism. and i have got to tell you, when i look at america's universities, when i look at our elise college students and the professors who are responsible for educating them and i see them chanting from the river to the sea, calling effectively for the extermination of the jewish state i have to scratch my head and wonder when was it that our education system failed our students so miserably? >> yeah. and we are going to get into that more with victor davis hanson. steve, i want to get you in on this. qatar's foreign minister framework for peace yesterday. let's watch this and get your take. >> discuss with the iranians prospect of this conflict and the need for us all to work together to make sure that this conflict maintained and walk back 7th of october and return to the peace in the region stephen, qatar has been safe haven for hamas leadership and iran funded the terror attacks beyond that how concerned are you that this could turn into a regional war? >> >> well, that's what you need to avoid. the way you avoid that is by acting quickly and not dragging it out to eliminate hamas. the more that you drag this out and the more it takes israel to achieve the mission, the likelier it becomes to have a wider in the middle east. if president trump was still in the whourntion the first phone call is to qatar to say hand over the hamas leadership or we are going to fundamentally change your relationship with the united states in a way that you are not going to like. and they will understand exactly what it means. just like the way we put pressure on iran so they couldn't fund proxy wars and terrorism across the middle east. it is shameful that a nation that is partner economic and otherwise with the united states is sheltering the leadership of hamas and the biden administration doesn't do a damn thing about it. you want to stop a regional war? you get the hamas leadership. you take them out of the picture. eliminate quickly and make sure this doesn't come on for months or years. you do it hard and you do it in a way where no one can ever think about striking israel in this fashion again. >> lisa: i think it's fair to say we are no longer feared as a country. nathan and stephen, thank you for your insight. thank you for joining us. i guess the pro-palestine and pro-hamas crowd didn't get the cease-fire memo because they were out in full force over the last two days. independent journalists always gets the best video and today it was no exception. you've got to see it for yourself. then, victor davis hanson reacts, that's next. stay with us. there once was a tree lovingly made to look real.

>> palestinian protesters were out today in forces because they believe that in disrupting black friday shopping or trying to make it harder for people to shop at these locations is because they want to hurt the u.s. economy because, in their view, if the u.s. economy is hurt, then that means less tax dollars are then used to go and support israel. and so, that's why when people want to try to say that, you know, what's happening in israel really doesn't necessarily effect me, it can. because, you know, people today were just out trying to get their holiday shopping, in trying to take advantage of those deals. yet, a lot of people out in the street trying to prevent them from doing so. >> lisa: julio, one of the videos you posted to x. someone was saying only one solution antifad da revolution. these people are calling for war and they are in the united states. what are your thoughts on that? >> well, this movement, and really with blm as well from back in 2020, they are not hiding their intentions not hiding what they want. clear when they're calling for violence. when they are story. view what is happening as a genocide. they view what is happening as, you know, this war against trying to eliminate entire population. so, in their mind, then they have to take radical steps to try to prevent that. here in the united states. so, i think people need to be really paying attention. especially as we are going into election year next year. these groups they goal out into the street even if it's cold and special if it's warm be out there in force and help change the i do. >> i'm sure cnn will tell us that they are mostly fiery but mostly peaceful like they did during the black lives matter protests that you covered. i wanted to ask you we saw black lives matter post a picture of paraglider standing u.s. support palestine. we also see people like grug, standing in solidarity. why is there so much overlap between these groups they mate the united states and everything it stands for. what does it stand snore it stands for colonialism and imperialism, capitalism and all these things i have seen blm supporters out there at well it's because like i said they kind of share this radical ideology in the sense that the united states as we know it need to be completely overhauled and completely changed in order to atone for all these different sins. so, there is a lot of overhappen again i have to stress we are going into election year and stakes are very high for both sides and they will be out there to make sure that their side wins. >> lisa: they sure are julio you are a brave man and we appreciate you joining the show. >> thanks. >> lisa: joining me now is the great victor davis hanson senior fellow. you say pro-hamas are coming to american restitutions. walk us through that it's great to see you. >> i agree with julio that they think they are going to affect the election. it's not going to be activistedded in the way they think. do they really believe when americans look at guests in our country, whether on student visas or first generation immigrants that have come over they have all fled tyranny and repression abroad and they repay the magnanimity in the united states by disrupting iconic event like the thanksgiving parade or tearing down american flags on veterans day or trying to stop americans from shopping? they think that's going to win sympathy from them? when they protest they are in direct opposition and antithesis people to protest for israel. which side wears masks? which side tears down flags of america? which side defaces property? which side intimidates people? which side gets arrested? and which side doesn't? and that's the domestic mirror image of the antithesis in the middle east between the tactics of hamas and israel people are looking at and this guy guesting it and thinking, you know what? why are we doing this? why are we bringing in people who hate us why are we allowing our campuses to fuel this hatred of us? when these protesters are in a complete bubble. because they should look at europe of all places. which is to the left of us. and they look at the elections in spain this summer and they look at what just happened in netherlands and germany and greece and italy. affecting elections. release immigrant in my lifetime. and victor joe biden is looking at the politics of all this as well. it was a day after he polled at 17% arab americans launched the strategy to launch islamophobia. looking at michigan 242,000 muslim adhere rents, what's the political impact of this for joe biden heading into 2024 while he tries to navigate the pro-hamas caucus of his party with pro-israel?
