Medical condition, so you have, you know, that might be something that you can use as a negotiating technique to maybe hit a soft button, but clearly it becomes a problem because now youre dealing with the welfare of the child and the welfare of the hostage taker. >> mighty tough. i guess youre working with the parents all the time on this, right? >> the intelligence team would wind up working with the parents and collecting the data. normally in these setups you have a primary negotiator thats ...

Rattle sabers and go to war. >> no one is saying go to war, but its the worst negotiating technique in the world to take something completely off of the table and get nothing for it. basically, what you said to the country, whose president said they would like to write israel off the face of the map that we will not respond, we will not be aggressive. >> with all due respect, i dont want to sit there and listen to lecturing about national security from republicans and administration, the previou...
