Trump: Bibi and I are coming up with various plans, we know where the hostages are

[Almost Heaven]

Trump: "Hamas has become very difficult to deal with in the last couple of days because they don't want to give up these last 20, because they think that they have protection as long as they have them. So I'm speaking to Bibi Netanyahu, and we're coming up with various plans. If they didn't have the hostages, things would go a lot quicker. But they do, and we know where they have them. You don't want to go riding roughshod over there because that means those hostages would be killed. A lot of people would just say that's the price you pay, but the people of Israel would not want that, and that's amazing."

Praying for their safe rescue and for the end of the evil Islamic regime that has Iran in its hold.

It seems to me that him just saying "they know where the hostages are" is reason for Hamas to move them to a new place.
Sometimes, it's better to keep one's mouth shut about such things, until a plan for extracation has been cumlinated, wouoldn't
you think???

Unless moving them makes them more visible, which might be the plan. Make Hamas more nervous, letting Israel see some movement, which pinpoints the real location easier.

Israel has shown it's ability to spot patterns and movements- sometimes waiting till a target moves in fear to relocate, and then taking them out en route.

Whatever Trump is really all about (so many wonder...self included), I think he takes the cake in just about never stopping to amaze us. Such heart.

Maybe this is to get the terrorists to move them from someplace that's inaccessible for some reason or would result in lots of casualties (military and/or civilian) to rescue them. Maybe they're no longer in Gaza . . . maybe in Iran, Syria, Egypt, Lebanon . . .

Even if they get all the hostages and then are able to arrest or kill the kidnappers, there will still be thousands of new Hamas recruits ready to take action. Hate must be eliminated to achieve peace. This is a no-win situation until The Lord returns.
