i know uh brett mcgurk and and david satterfield continue to work this almost by the hour to see if we can't get another pause in place and another hostage deal executed uh but as i said at the at the top here of the gaggle i i can't report to you certain or or tell you in good faith that there is another deal that's imminent, all i can do is is assure you that we continue to work this very very hard and literally every day and that includes of course the discussions that jake had when he was out in the region. time now to bring in live coach and media personality fahim muhammed with three stories for this segment on how the war on gaza is being covered on the air waves and online. fahema, good. to see you starting this segment with starving gosons, we're scrambling for food, absolutely, this video um that we can see shortly obviously emphasizes exactly what you just talked about, and we can see the images of mainly children, and as we know um, in the whole area of palestine, half of the population are children, and obviously they have been oppressed for many years before october the 7

and david satterfield, tremendously accomplished, diplomatic being appointed to, to navigate all of that to me as shown, tremendous strength of the united states. and that is part of what will be important going forward. and again, this can be just the united states. it needs to be the m moratti's and the egyptians, and the se, talk about the players. one of the other things was going on during a jump administration was the initiation of abraham, the courts and, and a lot of people look at the abraham accords and, and for the air of world, normalizing with israel as a net plus uh for the world and for israel, but there's also the view that it just leapfrogged over the palestine issue entirely. do you see it that way? i don't see it that way. i also don't see it as just a trump administration, something that started with the company ministration. so to be tech support, so that the name abraham accords and the kind of the celebration trappings of it and certainly the moratti's and who would be able to tell you far more about it. and i could, um and uh, and the bar end is who signed 1st i d
