Kill them and start a war its a massacre. We ask from the Biden Administration and the sent of state blinken, to act the Immediate Release of all hostages. On behalf of my family, im asking the u. S. Not to take a back seat. They start and we are going to finish, thats it. John any moment now President Biden will address the First Time Since saturday and death toll stands at 11, with more missing. Hello, john roberts in washington. Sandra im sandra smith in new york, this is america reports. The white house says the president who has mostly remained out of The Public Eye the past 72 hours will lay out his plan for how America Will Support israel as it inches closer to launching a Ground Invasion to eradicate hamas from the gaza strip. John speech comes as several American Families are furious at the Biden Administration for the lack of action in rescuing their loved ones who might be among the hostages who are still alive at the moment in gaza. Sandra Fox Team Coverage now. Mike tobin is in tel aviv on the missing American Families pleas for help. John greg is in israel close to the gaza strip. Greg no letup, action on both sides. All day we have been hearing the israeli Fighter Planes hitting targets close to here and further down gaza strip. The Israeli Defense force, idf confirms they have had 250 targets during the day, they call it the hamas infrastructure. It is one of the strongest days yet of their activity. But, hamas has not been sitting back. They have been acting, too, we have seen rockets go overhead heading to the south of israel, ashkelon, and tel aviv, jerusalem, the international airports, iron dome defenses of israel did a very good job, knocked most of it down. We heard a lot of big explosions during our time here. But hamas showing that this is still operating. We are in this town right now, and believe it or not, it took until today for israel to say they had this town under control, and the other 21 towns on either side of the gaza strip border. Today they showed one area just liberated in the last 24 hours, and bodies were lying around on the ground. The death toll is high. We have been telling our viewers about it but good to be reminded. Over 900 israelis and other nationalities as you noted, americans, 11, over 700 dead on the palestinian side. Thousands of injured and as you note, the big story, the continuing drama of the story of the hostage, some american, some taken from this very town, from this very town just on saturday, and brought over to gaza, they are scattered around there. The word from the hamas spokesman is that any more attacks from israel like we are hearing right now, they will kill hostages. We have no confirmation that they are acting on those terrible words but we are hearing that. So we have tension, we have activity, and one more thing, john, we have been watching tanks and tanks, dozens of Armored Personnel Carriers and other heavy equipment lining up in just about a mile and a half up the road from gaza, from the gaza strip. If the decision is made to go on land, they will act. They are waiting, its a very tense time. John. John greg palkot, thank you. Sandra. Sandra more on the Gut Wrenching News Conference from American Families in israel. Desperate pleas for the safe return of their loved ones, feared missing or taken hostage by Hamas Terrorists. Mike tobin is there, live in tel aviv for us. Mike, absolutely heartbreaking to hear the pleas from the families. Mike it is, and given the horrific details out of some of the areas where the attackers have been rappelled and the crews in. One area is to the northeast side of the gaza strip. This is a communal farm. Frankly, peacenicks would normally live, sympathize with the palestinians and their cause. Rescue crews went in there and the scenes describing are absolutely horrific and inhumane, that people inside of this kabutz had huddled in the safe rooms and were found massacred. According to the i24 news crew, they were told by the soldiers they have found infants who have been decapitated. As far as the families in horror right now, 150 people are now being held hostage by hamas and Islamic Jihad in the gaza strip, reportedly. One thing we know from the families in tel aviv earlier today is the only word they really have gotten at all is that their loved ones are missing. My brother and my sister, we were on the call with her as the terrorists barged into her home and we heard a little bit of screaming and thats that was our last contact with her. The lines are very clear now. Hamas has shown its true colors and this comes from someone on the israeli left, a peacenick, hamas has shown its colors. They are a force for evil, savagery and inhuman behavior. Mike the airstrikes continue in the gaza strip as greg mentioned with Fighter Planes over his head. The casualties are unavoidable, civilian casualties in the gaza strip, its so densely packed. Upwards of 830 have been killed, you know the number is higher on the israeli side. Prime minister Benjamin Netanyahu promised would reverberate for generations and dismantle the Fighting Ability of hamas. Israeli Security Council started meeting a half hour ago. See if it gets the tanks rolling. John Jason Chaffetz and marie, both are fox news contributor. Marie, start with you. President biden will be speaking some time in the hour or so ahead. He really needs to rise to this moment. This needs to be a clear and forceful message. Can he rise to this moment in a way that critics might say he hasnt before and what does he need to say . I think you are right. It is an incredibly important moment for the world and for the United States standing by our ally israel and i think he will rise rhetorically. Hes been working with the National Security team to make sure israel has everything it needs to defend itself, to punish those responsible on Hamas Terrorist Organization and i think he will talk about how that support will be lasting and continuing. Helping them replenish the iron dome, that the United States built, helping them have everything they need in the Hostage Rescue Situation you talked about this morning, we talked about here on fox. We have a lot of capabilities we can help the israelis with. I think he will talk movingly about how israel has been attacked, how this in many ways is like their 9 11, if not worse and i think you will hear him talk about decades of support for israel. Comes from a personal place for him, john. He has personally worked with the israelis on so many issues over his decades long career and hear the personal touch as well coming from him today. Sandra perhaps many wondering, jason, why did it take so long, why is this president taking so long to come out on the world stage to even comment personally on this. This was a white house spokesperson, john kirby, who we all know well, he was on with martha yesterday, and he was asked about the president s claim that Climate Change is more frightening than nuclear war. This was just yesterday, jason. Listen. Given all the nuclear players, does the president stand by that comment . Absolutely he does. Climate change is an existential threat. Threatens and is capable of wiping out all human life on earth. I dont know how many more existential you can get. Sandra as we watch this unfathomable violence, murdering that is happening there right now, what was your reaction when you heard that about our greatest threats . Well, i think you are starting to see why so Many Americans are concerned about our posture in the world. I mean, you had the National Security adviser days ago saying totally quiet, our intelligence was not in place, you have the leader of the free world, the president of the United States absent, missing in action for the last 48 hours unable, unwilling to actually get out there and issue any sort of statement on camera giving the world confidence the United States of america is going to take a Leadership Position in one of our best and closest allies in israel. It has been a total complete embarrassment. I agree with most everything that marie said how the president should voice support, but it needs to be more than that. He better put iran on notice. If he goes through the whole statement and does not mention the word iran and talk about its roll in the execution of these Terrorist Attacks, their support of hamas and hezbollah, a missed opportunity and totally irresponsible of the president of the United States. Iran is behind that, the world knows it. The president better put them on notice and he better gin up the military. We spend nearly 900 billion a year on our military, we got to have the biggest, baddest military ready to kick anybodys butt at any time and the world needs to know it. Peace through strength. I dont know if hes up to it but thats what i want to hear. John Wall Street Journal takes on the Biden Administration, president and a lot of official washington for that matter, with that observation, Wake Up Washington, the strategic and political point is that the return of war against israel isnt an isolated event. Its the latest installment in the unravelling of global order as American Political will and military is called into question. A lot of people are looking at this and saying it has roots in the withdrawal from afghanistan, this Administration Standing by while russia built up on ukraines borders, what do you say . Well, i mean, obviously israeli israeli towns, citizens have been targeted by Hamas Terrorists nor quite some time. I think we are in a very fragile global moment right now. Russias invasion of ukraine, by the way, the United States warned about and has armed ukraine, the only reason ukraine is still in this fight is because of u. S. Support and u. S. Military support to ukraine. This is a moment when a country like russia works with hamas, not only iran works with hamas, but a country like qatar where the United States is trying to work with them on a whole host of other issues. This is a really fragile moment and a time to stand with those countries like ukraine, like israel and say it is not ok for countries or Terrorist Organizations to massacre their citizens as we have seen in ukraine and israel, it is not ok to stand by and not say anything. Countries like china have a big decision to make. The chinese have a huge role globally, do they support russia and Terrorist Organizations like hamas or come out and say enough is enough. There is a lot of global uncertainty right now and thats a dangerous place. But the Biden Administration i will say leading our allies, putting a statement out this weekend with all of our allies in europe about support for israel, leading our allies to support ukraine, thats a role the United States will keep playing. John a button on what you said regarding ukraine, plenty of Military Analysts marie who said had the Biden Administration acted more aggressively while Vladimir Putin was moving troops toward ukraine he might not have invaded in the first place. Sandra. Sandra as far as the 6 billion in the iran prisoner swap, there are many right now jason who are tying that money to the hamas attack on israel, but the biden officials continue to say those funds are untouched. This was also john kirby, this was this morning, a different interview. He was asked about that after Kevin Mccarthy called on the president to refreeze, if they are still sitting there, refreeze the 6 billion in iranian funds. He said that could happen. The 6 billion, it can be refrozen at any time. Not a single dinar of that 6 billion has ever gone into iran for humanitarian purposes, none has been allocated, none have been spent. So its all still sitting in a bank and thats an option available to us. Sandra if it truly has not, the 6 billion allocated, any of it or any of it been spent, why not go in there now and refreeze those funds so that they cannot be accessed for any other reason . If what john kirby is saying is true, then the president should say that he has refrozen those funds. Put an end to it saying we are going to hold that. And the billions of dollars, u. S. Taxpayer funded equipment we left in afghanistan, instead of blowing it up, desantroying , is that on the battlefield and used Answer Americans and israel, reports suggesting that is the case, the president should address that as well. I hope he does. Sandra jason and marie, thank you for joining us. John as israel moves troops, tanks and other Military Equipment to the border with gaza, the pentagon is reaching out to u. S. Weapons manufacturers to speed up Weapon Shipments under contract with the israeli army. Meanwhile, Hamas Terrorists are threatening to execute hostages over idf strikes against targets in gaza. Cameron hamilton is coming up, former navy seal, but first, Jennifer Griffin live at the pentagon. And jen, what more has the pentagon done overnight . John, we have learned boeing has accelerated the delivery of 1,000 smart bombs to israel. Israels air force took delivery of the bombs from a u. S. Air base. The u. S. Is rushing aid to israel, squadrons of fighter jets left, and munitions are on the way. And a senior u. S. Defense official, they told us on monday, this is isis level savagery, The Pentagon Official told reporters. They have asked for more iron dome interceptors, small diameter bombs and the idf prepares for a possible confrontation on the northern border with lebanese hezbollah. There was an understanding for ten years, to cover until 2028, the Senior Defense official added we are concerned about hezbollah making the wrong decision and choosing to open a second front to the conflict. U. S. S. Gerald r. Ford strike group is en route to the eastern mediterranean, onsite soon, includes what the navy called the biggest baddest war ship, commissioned in 2017, the first new Aircraft Carrier designed by the u. S. In four decades. It has a full deck of war planes, measures 1,100 feet from bow to stern, and is longer than three football fields. Powered by two State Of The Art nuclear reactors, the general in Constant Contact with israeli counterparts issued the statement, stands firmly with israeli and regional partners to address the risk of any party seeking to expand the conflict. Fbi has teams of Rescue Personnel and working with israel and other Security Agencies to locate missing americans. John. John the ford also has the email aircraft launch system, pretty sophisticated. Jen, thanks. Real quick update, we may be hearing from the president soon, apparently he and the Vice President just got off a call with the israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu about u. S. Support for israel. All of that just ahead. Sandra. Sandra we could be seeing and hearing from the president shortly. Cameron hamilton, former u. S. Navy seal who trained idf special forces. Important to hear from you how you believe israel should proceed based on the Hostage Situation and what you want to hear from the president a few moments from now. Good afternoon, and thank you for having me. I think some of the honor i had of training with idf soldiers and brave Men And Women Of Israel is remarkable. I know they will respond to the appropriate force but also incredibly measured and disciplined in their techniques and tactics with how they minimize civilian casualties, and with how they strategize to be as effective as possible. I would like to see the president come out with a much stronger tone. I think frankly as much as speech can be wonderful in the public forum, i would like to see his policies reflect a greater defense of our allies in showing we do not partner with enemies of israel. John cameron, of course in israel every ablebodied young adult has to do service in the israeli military, and many of them remain in the reserve corps after that. Our standing 360,000 reservists have been called up for potential action in whatever comes next. If there is a full scale Ground Invasion into gaza, that is going to result in a lot of casualties on both sides. Do you expect that thats what israel has in mind, or will it continue to try to prosecute this with airstrikes alone . So i think we are already seeing israel is Conducting Airstrikes at the moment, but israels techniques and some of their Military Strategy involves boots on the ground at many different layers of conflict. So i would imagine we would see boots on the ground. Its my assessment there are boots on the ground in gaza assessing and surveying to determine how it is to be most effective. This is not a new war for israel, unfortunately, not a new strategy or mission set. I know they will use whatever means possible to be as effective as they can on the battlefield. They also take great risk by their service members. I was astonished at the bravery of some of these men and women and how they were willing to put themselves in harms way for innocent bystanders. Sandra ahead of hearing from the president any moment now, some of the Family Members of hostages calling for the president of the United States to take action. Listen. We are asking on behalf of my family for President Biden to do what they can to make this end for us as soon as possible to become family whole again. The u. S. Government has direct responsibility to the lives of the u. S. Citizens that are held hostage by these terrorists. Sandra hard to imagine how incredibly difficult this is for those families. Yeah, i cant even imagine. I think most of us see this and are horrified and astonished at the carnage we are finding. Israel, unfortunately another reality they faced many times. They faced it before and unfortunately i suspect they will face it more again. But they have the bravery, will power to mitigate threats. It comes at a great cost of human life. From an american policy perspective, we need to stand more aligned with israel and when we partner and broker with organizations like iran or many others who export terrorist through their Financial Resources and training, we should expect more of this kind of activity to continue. Its time we had enough. John you mentioned the cost of human life, put up the statistics as we know them at this moment on the screen in terms of casualties. More than 1,000 israelis killed, more than 800 palestinians, 11 americans, eight french nationals, we understand that in the hostages, there may also be russian nationals, may be chinese nationals. If israel goes in on the ground, hamas is holding said to be more than 150 hostage, and they have threatened to execute a hostage every time israel attacks a civilian residence or other building without warning. How much more danger could those hostages potentially be in if israel does launch a Ground Assault in the hours or days ahead . Thats a really excellent question. I think israel is given an impossible task. No matter what they do, i can guarantee you hamas will execute hostages either way. Question will be how and what they use with their resources so as to eliminate this Terrorist Threat and to rescue as many people as possible. Israel is brilliant, they have trained for this, they are well prepared, i suspect they will go in understanding they dont deserve this scenario but are faced with it and faced it many times before. The bravery of some of the men and women of the idf is remarkable and they will use it with speed and swiftness. Sandra appreciate your time. Thank you for joining us. John we are keeping an eye on the white house. Any minute now President Biden is set to address the nation and the world on the war in israel. We will bring you that as soon as he begins. Sandra growing calls to hold iran accountable after the country reportedly gave hamas The Green Light for the Terror Attacks. Will the white house have a change in policy when it comes to tehran . Hes made iran wealthy, more secure and able to fund more terrorism. For them to look at anybody in the face to say that iran was not involved in this, thats like saying our border is secure.

Fisher Investments its easy to think that all Money Managers are pretty much the same, but at Fisher Investments were clearly different. other Money Manager different how . You sell High Commission investment products, right . Fisher Investments nope. Fisher avoids them. other Money Manager well, you must earn commissions on trades. Fisher Investments never at fisher. other Money Manager ok, then you probably sneak in some hidden and layered fees. Fisher Investments no. We structure our fees so we do better when our clients do better. That might be why most of our clients come from other Money Managers. At Fisher Investments, were clearly different. Sandra fox news alert, this just in from the fbi new york office. It has issued a statement in light of recent events overseas. Fbi new york jttf, joint Terrorism Task force increased focus on potential threats. We remain in Constant Contact with our federal, state and local partners to include nypd and community partners. Dont have intelligence to a threat to the city, we encourage the public to remain vigilant. If you see something suspicious, report it to the fbi at tips. Fbi. Gov or call 911 in an emergency. An update from the fbi here in new york in just the past few minutes. Meanwhile, the war in israel is putting more pressure on congress to elect a permanent speaker. House republicans are expected to hear from two candidates this afternoon. Some Fear A Drawn Out Battle May delay critical aid. Chad pergram is live from capitol hill. Does it sound like republicans will be able to unite on one candidate here . Sandra, its imperative they do, otherwise the house is not rational and cannot respond to the war in the middle east. There is talk of an aid package for israel and the very least a resolution denouncing hamas. So dangerous to not have a speaker in place, we cannot go rudderless without a leader, without a speaker, we have to get it done on wednesday. Mccaul did not rule out rescuing hostage, war powers where Congress Must be involved. Worry about money for israel and ukraine and Disaster Assistance for maui. Everyone has conversations what israel may or may not need. They need to be separated out to take clearer votes on what they prioritize and make sure we are not trying to push everything together. Jim jordan appears to have the most public support. Some jordan backers worry about the wellbeing of majority leader steve scalise. He has cancer. I was honest with scalise. I think his health is an issue. I dont want somebody that is going to deteriorate in the job. This a tough job, you have to be everywhere. The earliest the house could vote is wednesday. Jordan and scalise make their pitches to members later today. Sandra chad, thank you. John the United States has yet to confirm irans direct involvement in the hamas operation, the white house says iran is indeed complicit and that is bringing new challenges to the president s Foreign Policy goals. Lets bring in an adjunct professor at georgetown university, and a book on relationship between israel and iran. Its been a long time. Irans Supreme Leader says we were not involved in this at all. Yet we had the report from the Wall Street Journal on sunday that says that iran and the Islamic Revolutionary guard corps were in the thick of this and report from the bbc, says a hamas spokesman that they had direct backing from iran. Historical, Ayatollah Kohlmeini laid the hatred toward jews and called the elimination of israel from the face of the world. It goes back historically to an ideologically driven hatred of the regime toward the jewish states. John were they involved in this. 100 . Willing to bet on this, why, tactics are reminiscent tactics used to put down the people of iran. They use motorcycles to hit and club iranian women, drag them into places and then rape them and do horrible things to them. This is exactly the tactic that we have seen iran do against the people of iran. Sandra some are wondering in the moment we are about to hear from the president mostly quiet over the past 72 hours, whether or not he will directly address iran in the speech. Should he i think one of the biggest failures of american policy over the last 30, 40 years is the appeasement of the islamic regime. President biden must address the involvement of iran and i think the president has an opportunity to say we will stop every and all negotiations with Islamic Republic and start investing in the people of iran. Right before saturdays attack there was an award given to the brave iranian woman who is in jail. Thats where President Biden should put his investment, not in the butchers of tehran. John when people ask whats in it for iran, a lot of analysts has been saying its all about saudi arabia and israel working on negotiations toward a normalization of relations. Iran doesnt like that, and its trying to screw things up by causing friction between the palestinians and the israelis meaning the negotiations with saudi arabia will be off the table at least for the time being. You just spent ten days in saudi arabia. What was the sense there about looming diplomatic relations with israel . John, salman is moving the saudi economy toward 1. 4 trillion. He understands peace will get him there and understands peace with israel will accelerate that. John, it was amazing the optimism of a new middle east, the optimism of a renaissance among saudi policy makers, the average citizens that i spoke to. Its an opportunity the Iranian Regime killed with this savage attack on israel. John and now back to the battle. Sandra rob, bringing back up this Wall Street Editorial Peace Wake Up Washington and says the world is awash in threats that will wash up on our shore. If america does not get the act today, iran will destroy israel, Nuclear Power to menace europe and the United States, revolutionary state, not a status quo power. What is your message to those at home who fear its coming to u. S. Soil . Well, the Iranian Regime did sandra send terrorists to murder former Secretary Of State mike pompeo, john bolton, and activist, iranian lady in brooklyn, new york. So, yes, this is a regime thats dangerous. John you said in the break you speak farsi, youve been listening to things coming out of iran. Where are rank and file iranians on this . The people of iran want to get rid of this regime. Thats the fundamental and they are supportive of israel and the United States. John interesting. Rob, great to see you. Obviously we will have plenty of opportunity, unfortunately, to get together in the future, its not going to be over any time soon. Sandra thanks, appreciate it. U. S. May have busted a high level iranian spy ring involving a state Department Official now under fbi investigation. Senator tom cotton will break down where the feds are looking into rob malley.

John we expect some time in the minutes ahead to be hearing from President Biden at the white house on israel, what the United States is going to do to support israel and what we are going to do in terms of trying to get hostages out of gaza. This was all supposed to happen about 41 minutes ago, 42 minutes ago now. We do know the president and the Vice President were on the phone with Benjamin Netanyahu, so probably just making some tweaks to the speech before the president comes out. We will have that for you when it happens. Meanwhile, Border Patrol data leaked to fox news reveals thousands of special interest aliens from the middle east have tried to enter the United States. This comes as war rages on between israel and the iranianbacked hamas terrorist group. Bill melugin joins us. Bill, how many migrants from the middle east have been arrested over the past two years . Bill thousands of them, john, well get to that in a moment. I can tell you right after the Terror Attacks in israel, i got several texts from Border Patrol agents essentially saying i hope we are not next here in the u. S. They have extreme concerns about what has been coming across our southern border. Well start with the terror watch list numbers. Fiscal year 2023 so far, 151 people on the fbi Terror Washington list arrested by Border Patrol as they have been coming across the southern border, the highest number ever recorded, its also higher than the last six years combined. Then talk about the known gotaways. Take a look at this video the team has shot in naco, arizona, camo, escaping into the desert. Since President Biden took office, well over 1. 5 million known gotaways escaping into the United States, Illegal Immigrants on cameras or sensors, but no man power to arrest them. And that is a Population Size bigger than the city of dallas, texas, successfully sneaking across the southern border and not United States. Yesterday martha asked the white house about the Security Concerns at our southern border given the attacks in israel, what john kirby had to say. I dont have any specific Law Enforcement actions to speak to today. Obviously we monitor threats to our National Security from inside and outside the country all in realtime. Law enforcement and Intelligence Community are watching as closely as they can and monitoring. Bill the numbers, cbp internal data leaked to us by sources this morning show several thousand special interest aliens have been arrested by Border Patrol at our southern border over the last two years. These are people coming from countries designated by the u. S. Government to have some sort of nexus to terrorism or favorable conditions for terrorism or National Security threat to the United States. Look at the numbers and the countries. Thousands from afghanistan, more than 600 from iran, 160, more than that from lebanon, the home of hezbollah, more than 500 from syria, the home of isis, 130 from yemen, former u. S. Border patrol chief rodney scott served under both President Trump and President Biden, he says Border Patrol agents have no idea who these people are as they cross. Take a listen. Having an open border allowing anybody to come in is a National Security threat. This administration keeps wanting to talk about we are vetting people coming in. Thats just simply not true. We have very Little Information on the people across this entire globe. Bill adding more to that point about the vetting, Border Patrol agents tell me they have little to no way of vetting these people from the special interest countries. Unless they have previously committed a crime in the u. S. Or on some type of federal watch list, this he have no way of knowing who these people are or histories are, the home countries in the middle east dont share their databases o are records or criminal histories with the United States. When the agents run their names or fingerprints, there is nothing to run it against. Extremely concerning, john. Back to you. John so bill to get into a little of the correspondence, there is concern on the people who leaked it not enough is done at official levels to address this. What is the level of concern among your sources that all of these people have been coming into the country and the National Security threat they might pose. The concern has been shooting through the roof over two years now, because so many of these agents are pulled off front line patrol duties. All frustrated, they are doing processing and paperwork and that takes agents off the front lines and leaves gaps in the border, sometimes we have no agents on the front lines and the cartels and smugglers take advantage of that, and the reason they were leaked to us, that is cbp and dhs internal data. They do not report it to the public. The only way we see it is if we have contact willing to share it with us, in this case thankfully they did to that. Back to you. John we are not hearing about all of that from the administration. Good sources give the information. Bill, thank you. Sandra. Sandra Vicious Fighting continues along the southern israel gaza border, there are reports of rocket fire coming from southern lebanon into northern israel. This is raising fears israel might be forced to fight a twofront war. Joining us us from northern israel, eliana, witnessed the devastation firsthand in gaza. You were visiting, The House Next Door to your parents Apartment Building was the target and you were in a bomb shelter when hamas hit the neighbor. Please tell us about that. Hello, yes. So i mean while that happened, we were The House Next Door in the bomb shelter, we ran into the bomb shelter because the alarm started and we took a selfie for, i dont know, for fun usually i dont take it as serious, funny now, and i was with my mom, my dad and my Future Husband, and when we wanted to go out to take the selfie the bomb hit, we thought it actually hit our house, we wanted to stay inside, didnt know what to do, but then the gas started to smell, and we decided to then good out of the house because maybe it was burning upstairs or something was happening so we ran and opened the door and all the like the sand of the walls and glass and everything was like kind of in the air, so we thought oh, god, maybe its the fire, so we ran out of the house, went down stairs, panicking neighbors on the stairs, and then we saw it was the car in front of us. It explode, we ran back inside of the house, we went upstairs, got our valuables and left as fast as we could from the location. John and hi, its john roberts in washington. We have been talking to so many people there in israel over the last 72 hours, and literally every person we have talked to knows someone who has died. How has this affected people who live in israel now . Youve been there about ten years, i believe. Its its so surreal. I cant even explain how surreal this is. I know my Future Husband knows two people that died, my friend knows a person that died. Its you know, the party that happened in the south, we like to go to parties, techno trends, its so horrifying, its so horrible. So yeah, i honestly dont know what to say about that. Its just so close to us and every day im hearing and seeing on instagram all the videos and what people are sharing and so many people, so many of my friends are posting, they are looking for their cousin, its really, really, really, really horrifying. Sandra and i know that you have said that you have seen bombs fall before but always saved by the iron dome. So there was never a moment like this. Obviously this is something you could never have imagined. What are you talking to your family about, how do you plan to pick up the pieces, what is the next step for you and your family . So my parents left this morning back to europe. They wanted obviously for me to come with them. My Future Husband, he voluntarily wants to go with his unit, how to say, he wants to recruit himself, so im not going to leave him here. We are not sure whats next. Right now we are up north at friends house because we dont have a shelter in our own apartment and our house we cant go inside right now because they are trying to fix what was broken. John you are in the northern part of israel, so far relatively untouched, but lebanon, 17 years ago everything was coming across the border from lebanon. Today there was an antitank missile that was fired by hezbollah into northern israel. The idf returned fire, took out an observation post. What are your fears that hezbollah might say we have to throw in with hamas, Firing Thousands upon thousands of rockets we have toward israel. Fears, this is i dont even know. As we see that i was so shocked what was happening to us, i dont even know what to extent this like whats going to happen. It is so scary. The family of my Future Husband lives up north, we dont really, im sorry for the noise, theres an Air Force Base right next to us. Yeah, im honestly, not sure what to tell you. Its fear and we dont know what to expect. This is the most scary thing. Sandra we cannot even imagine the fear that you are living through every moment of every hour right now. We thank you for coming on to talk to us, eliana. Thank you so much. John sandra, the one thing we do know, the tenacity and amazing reserve of will that the israeli people have in the face of these attacks is really something quite staggering. 2006, when the bombs were raining down, we saw people whose houses had been blown up literally around them, they were in their safe room, and the first thing they did was they got out and said we are going to start cleaning up and protect the neighborhood and look after people who were hurt. You live under the threat of missiles and attacks for so long, it becomes part of daily life. You just get used to dealing with it and we can see from eliana, you live in fear all the time, live goes on. Sandra almost like we saw firsthand that reality, you know, still setting in. Here she is about to become a young bride, she was there visiting not just her parents but her if i fiances parents, and the selfie in the bomb shelter, and to have it dropped on the neighbors home next door. Incredible story and hearts are with her and all those who are in her situation, john. John and there are millions of stories like that across israel. We are awaiting remarks from President Biden who was supposed to talk almost an hour ago now. The first briefing by the White House Press secretary Karine Jeanpierre expected to follow the president s remarks. Jake sullivan, National Security adviser, will be joining her. We confirm at least 11 americans were killed and unknown number may be held hostage by hamas after the brutal attack on israel. We are wa we are watching it live for you. Sandra and 2024 hopefuls how they would move forward and deal with the terrorists and iran. How different are they to President Bidens policy, thats next. Wolf dont mind me.
