| Just reading the rejection by Hamas of the plan offered by the United States, Qatar, Israel. | |
| Six weeks ceasefire and 900 terrorists, Palestinian terrorists, for just 40 hostages and six weeks for Hamas to regroup and they rejected it. | |
| On occasion, I think about the hostages. | |
| If they're still in tunnels, it's hard to imagine that the trauma is treatable. | |
| First, you can't breathe well in the tunnels for a long period of time. | |
| Second, you're with people who, if you're a woman, want to rape you. | |
| And if you're a man or a woman... | |
| Wanted to torture you and kill you, murder you. | |
| What is it now? | |
| Let's see. | |
| November, December, January, February, March, April. | |
| It's six months, half a year. | |
| You're in your apartment. | |
| You're in your little house on a kibbutz. | |
| Like any one of you woke up today, a normal day, just go to work or take care of kids or whatever you'll be doing. | |
| And then something that you would not have had a nightmare about takes place. | |
| This is beyond nightmares. | |
| I'm going next week to Washington, D.C. to debate the issue. | |
| Come back and then two days later I go to South Africa as the speaker for a Passover retreat. | |
| We'll go to Where is Dennis and you can check up on it if you want to go. | |
| How many people get to have a safari in the middle of Passover? | |
| Anyway, it was not something I wanted to do, that's my point. | |
| Go to Washington, come back to Los Angeles. | |
| Two days later, go 33 hours to South Africa. | |
| But I am committed to making the case for Israel. | |
| Actually, I think about those hostages, and I am reconvinced that the human being cannot... | |
| God made us so that we cannot fully empathize. | |
| We would go mad. | |
| If you could empathize with everyone's pain, you would go mad. | |
| You'd probably go mad in minutes, given how much pain there is. | |
| But not only that, so it's not just that I can't fully empathize, because I've never undergone it. | |
| It's that you can't imagine what it must be like. | |
| Half a year in those tunnels transferred by people who want you dead. | |
| One of the women who was let out was raped. | |
| I'm not talking about raped on October 7th. | |
| That was plenty. | |
| What is the percentage, by the way? | |
| Did you send me the article? | |
| There was a percentage of Was it Palestinians who denied that any of these things happened? | |
| Truth is not a value in, as I told you on the left, it is not a left-wing value. | |
| I say that every day. | |
| It's not a big value. | |
| If you read David Price Jones, one of the most important books ever written about the Arab world, the closed circle it's called. | |
| Price is P-R-Y-C-E. He was a Brit. | |
| Truth is not a big factor in much of the Middle East. | |
| So they, you know, whatever, they believe what they want to believe. |
