Ilhan Omar: Jake Sullivan Isn’t Sharing the Full Picture on Ceasefire Negotiation Efforts

PHILLIP It s an ░░░░░░░░ point that we are ░░░░░░░░ some really horrific images ░░░░░░░░ we know based on ░░░░░░░░ own reporting at CNN ░░░░░░░░ there is a lot ░░░░░░░░ suffering in Gaza I ░░░░░░░░ want you as you ░░░░░░░░ talking about this war ░░░░░░░░ listen to what one ░░░░░░░░ the president s top ░░░░░░░░ on national security Jake ░░░░░░░░ said today at the ░░░░░░░░ House briefing about a ░░░░░░░░ which I know that ░░░░░░░░ support Listen Clip starts ░░░░░░░░ Those who would like ░░░░░░░░ see a ceasefire in ░░░░░░░░ a ceasefire is on ░░░░░░░░ table today for six ░░░░░░░░ to be built on ░░░░░░░░ something more enduring if ░░░░░░░░ would simply release women ░░░░░░░░ and elderly And the ░░░░░░░░ that they will not ░░░░░░░░ so says a lot ░░░░░░░░ me about Hamas s ░░░░░░░░ for innocent Palestinian civilians ░░░░░░░░ ends PHILLIP If a ░░░░░░░░ is on the table ░░░░░░░░ Hamas could agree to ░░░░░░░░ today Does he have ░░░░░░░░ point Omar Well Hamas ░░░░░░░░ up to Egypt it ░░░░░░░░ my understanding for the ░░░░░░░░ It was Israel that ░░░░░░░░ to send negotiators to ░░░░░░░░ at the table to ░░░░░░░░ out you have to ░░░░░░░░ that a ceasefire is ░░░░░░░░ something that happens magically ░░░░░░░░ is a process that ░░░░░░░░ negotiated by different parties ░░░░░░░░ have interest And so ░░░░░░░░ do hope that Jake ░░░░░░░░ to be an honest ░░░░░░░░ in this in this ░░░░░░░░ PHILLIP That s actually ░░░░░░░░ mean that s actually ░░░░░░░░ I really want to ░░░░░░░░ Are you suggesting that ░░░░░░░░ he says there s ░░░░░░░░ on the table a ░░░░░░░░ that Israel has agreed ░░░░░░░░ they want those hostages ░░░░░░░░ Hamas will not agree ░░░░░░░░ that you don t ░░░░░░░░ that that s where ░░░░░░░░ you don t believe ░░░░░░░░ that is where things ░░░░░░░░ today in these negotiations ░░░░░░░░ Well there was a ░░░░░░░░ AP reporting that said ░░░░░░░░ know negotiators from Hamas ░░░░░░░░ in Egypt to negotiate ░░░░░░░░ a ceasefire and Israel ░░░░░░░░ not to send anyone ░░░░░░░░ there to negotiate You ░░░░░░░░ certainly have certain demands ░░░░░░░░ you want and we ░░░░░░░░ want the hostages released ░░░░░░░░ to their families or ░░░░░░░░ hostages that are included ░░░░░░░░ is an infant that ░░░░░░░░ included in those hostages ░░░░░░░░ so it is important ░░░░░░░░ we do everything that ░░░░░░░░ can But we can ░░░░░░░░ be dishonest to the ░░░░░░░░ where we are saying ░░░░░░░░ everybody is doing everything ░░░░░░░░ they can to be ░░░░░░░░ the table to negotiate ░░░░░░░░ ceasefire that can lead ░░░░░░░░ a permanent solution PHILLIP ░░░░░░░░ again to clarify congresswoman ░░░░░░░░ re saying Jake Sullivan ░░░░░░░░ being dishonest when he ░░░░░░░░ Israel is at the ░░░░░░░░ willing to sign a ░░░░░░░░ Omar I m saying ░░░░░░░░ s not sharing the ░░░░░░░░ picture I don t ░░░░░░░░ if he s being ░░░░░░░░ or not but it ░░░░░░░░ does not go along ░░░░░░░░ the current reporting that ░░░░░░░░ has come out of ░░░░░░░░ negotiation efforts PHILLIP On ░░░░░░░░ president and this election ░░░░░░░░ is as you point ░░░░░░░░ really important one you ░░░░░░░░ t vote for President ░░░░░░░░ or for uncommitted in ░░░░░░░░ s primary The uncommitted ░░░░░░░░ was a big part ░░░░░░░░ that primary in your ░░░░░░░░ state.”
