2:09 pm
a deal that he says is achievable. lincoln also met with families of some of the captives held in gaza to tell them a strong proposal was on the table. the words turned to get the ceasefire. the priest, the hostages all together now. and the only reason that wouldn't be changed is because of the loss. there is a follow up on the table. and as we said, no delays, there was no excuses. the time is now and the time is now long past due to the same time even termination, because he's part of the police officers. all we also have to be focused on people in gosh, for software engineers. crossfire from us, his name is katelyn, without correspondents, and occupied eastern sunbonnet smith. what is this business now? conclude as the brain can trip to the region.
