RUSH TRANSCRIPT Could potentially ░░░░░░░░ affecting their lives Much ░░░░░░░░ us now is Israel ░░░░░░░░ former ambassador to the ░░░░░░░░ States Michael Oren Ambassador ░░░░░░░░ very much Do you ░░░░░░░░ this deal is going ░░░░░░░░ get done Get done ░░░░░░░░ I think it s ░░░░░░░░ to be not easy ░░░░░░░░ for Netanyahu But he ░░░░░░░░ squeeze by he squeezed ░░░░░░░░ previously you know ministers ░░░░░░░░ smotrich who mentioned John ░░░░░░░░ smotrich He s the ░░░░░░░░ minister He s from ░░░░░░░░ religious zionist very right ░░░░░░░░ party He maybe can ░░░░░░░░ be bought but he ░░░░░░░░ perhaps be rented There ░░░░░░░░ things he wants He ░░░░░░░░ maybe more money for ░░░░░░░░ in judea and samaria ░░░░░░░░ the West Bank And ░░░░░░░░ it s politics And ░░░░░░░░ know Israel is not ░░░░░░░░ United States The prime ░░░░░░░░ is not the commander ░░░░░░░░ chief He has to ░░░░░░░░ approval approval of an ░░░░░░░░ cabinet and then a ░░░░░░░░ cabinet in order to ░░░░░░░░ this decision And there ░░░░░░░░ going to be a ░░░░░░░░ of horse trading going ░░░░░░░░ But at the end ░░░░░░░░ the day the majority ░░░░░░░░ Israelis want the deal ░░░░░░░░ painful as conflicting as ░░░░░░░░ are because we know ░░░░░░░░ re going to be ░░░░░░░░ Palestinian terrorists from jail ░░░░░░░░ have killed Israelis You ░░░░░░░░ to go to those ░░░░░░░░ and say listen you ░░░░░░░░ this guy is going ░░░░░░░░ get a hero s ░░░░░░░░ home but your loved ░░░░░░░░ are still on the ░░░░░░░░ and they re going ░░░░░░░░ go off to be ░░░░░░░░ again We know that ░░░░░░░░ who orchestrated October 7th ░░░░░░░░ sinwar were in Israeli ░░░░░░░░ We let them out ░░░░░░░░ previous deals So it ░░░░░░░░ very very painful And ░░░░░░░░ also don t know ░░░░░░░░ many of these hostages ░░░░░░░░ coming home alive Full ░░░░░░░░ that Israel I mean ░░░░░░░░ Israel ever gotten from ░░░░░░░░ the Red Cross or ░░░░░░░░ Absolutely not Know against ░░░░░░░░ international regulations and the ░░░░░░░░ Cross hasn t had ░░░░░░░░ to them What the ░░░░░░░░ phases I m wondering ░░░░░░░░ you make of this ░░░░░░░░ plan and the chance ░░░░░░░░ one of these phases ░░░░░░░░ fall apart Violated the ░░░░░░░░ It violated the ceasefire ░░░░░░░░ October 7th 2023 there ░░░░░░░░ a cease fire It ░░░░░░░░ the last ceasefire of ░░░░░░░░ 2023 So the chances ░░░░░░░░ Hamas would violate the ░░░░░░░░ again are very very ░░░░░░░░ especially if you have ░░░░░░░░ these different factions in ░░░░░░░░ And Hamas will say ░░░░░░░░ re not in control ░░░░░░░░ them They re going ░░░░░░░░ start firing phase 133 ░░░░░░░░ 42 day cease fire ░░░░░░░░ 1300 prisoners terrorists from ░░░░░░░░ jails additional aid for ░░░░░░░░ All of that looks ░░░░░░░░ good on paper The ░░░░░░░░ phase would cause for ░░░░░░░░ further Israeli withdrawal from ░░░░░░░░ Gaza Strip Right now ░░░░░░░░ first phase calls for ░░░░░░░░ troops to withdraw from ░░░░░░░░ densely populated areas Withdrawal ░░░░░░░░ Israeli troops over a ░░░░░░░░ and third at the ░░░░░░░░ And then Hamas can ░░░░░░░░ say we re going ░░░░░░░░ come out of the ░░░░░░░░ and we re going ░░░░░░░░ retake the Gaza Strip ░░░░░░░░ There would be a ░░░░░░░░ I know Blinken has ░░░░░░░░ forward a sort of ░░░░░░░░ of a plan um ░░░░░░░░ the reconstruction for the ░░░░░░░░ and the ruling of ░░░░░░░░ I mean there s ░░░░░░░░ lot of how what ░░░░░░░░ that even look like ░░░░░░░░ mean is Hamas uh ░░░░░░░░ I mean are they ░░░░░░░░ degraded that they are ░░░░░░░░ a power there anymore ░░░░░░░░ seems unlikely One thing ░░░░░░░░ from from Jerry jarman ░░░░░░░░ report was that Hamas ░░░░░░░░ still firing They ve ░░░░░░░░ something in the order ░░░░░░░░ 60 soldiers over the ░░░░░░░░ couple of weeks They ░░░░░░░░ on firing rockets at ░░░░░░░░ Israeli communities It is ░░░░░░░░ a military force and ░░░░░░░░ are entire battalions So ░░░░░░░░ talk of mice that ░░░░░░░░ not been degraded at ░░░░░░░░ a reconstituted Palestinian Authority ░░░░░░░░ the first phase somehow ░░░░░░░░ in or an international ░░░░░░░░ from from you know ░░░░░░░░ or Qatar coming in ░░░░░░░░ to be fair what ░░░░░░░░ Biden Administration wanted was ░░░░░░░░ reconstituted Palestinian Authority It ░░░░░░░░ a very corrupt and ░░░░░░░░ body and have it ░░░░░░░░ back into Gaza and ░░░░░░░░ some type of administrative ░░░░░░░░ Back in 2005 they ░░░░░░░░ they got beat by ░░░░░░░░ Hamas within a matter ░░░░░░░░ days even though they ░░░░░░░░ received a tremendous amount ░░░░░░░░ American military training It ░░░░░░░░ went down went down ░░░░░░░░ drain in a matter ░░░░░░░░ days The question is ░░░░░░░░ the Palestinian Authority any ░░░░░░░░ capable today of assuming ░░░░░░░░ responsibilities The Israeli government ░░░░░░░░ m not a spokesman ░░░░░░░░ this is pretty much ░░░░░░░░ they want They would ░░░░░░░░ to have local administrators ░░░░░░░░ administrators who are not ░░░░░░░░ with Hamas take over ░░░░░░░░ daily running of the ░░░░░░░░ and have an international ░░░░░░░░ particularly with a large ░░░░░░░░ Arab component from the ░░░░░░░░ Egypt other countries come ░░░░░░░░ and actually take care ░░░░░░░░ the the general reconstruction ░░░░░░░░ Gaza There s a ░░░░░░░░ to be constructed but ░░░░░░░░ t security control would ░░░░░░░░ very much in the ░░░░░░░░ of Israeli security forces ░░░░░░░░ the IDF and they ░░░░░░░░ not going to outsource ░░░░░░░░ to anybody else Nobody ░░░░░░░░ at this point Anderson ░░░░░░░░ s going to be ░░░░░░░░ assumption would be on ░░░░░░░░ part of the government ░░░░░░░░ that phase two and ░░░░░░░░ three are a
