inside Gaza for 10 months, and only to find out later he had been killed on October 7th.
So because everybody has been so closely impacted by this, because so many have been called up into the army over the last two years and have had to leave their jobs, because so many families have been impacted, I think there's a collective family sigh of relief among the Jewish people today, and that's why you see this celebrating.
Matt, just hang there.
Matt Affarachi is in Jerusalem for us.
Let's go to Joel Gilbert.
Joel, you're as close as it comes to being an expert in the area.
You're a filmmaker, made many films about this.
You went to college in London, learned under some of the great scholars in the West.
both Greek and Jewish, about Islam and political Islam.
Your thoughts today, because President Trump's coming.
He's going to meet the hostages.
Obviously, this is very important for him.
President Trump has got a big heart, as I think people realize, but he's also going to address the Israeli people at the Knesset, and then he's going to actually go to Egypt for this, I guess you'd call it a peace conference, which Netanyahu was not invited to, is what we understand.
Your thoughts on this?
My thoughts are that today Israel gets a bone.
They get 20 hostages back.
They get President Trump visiting Israel, which is a very emotionally reward for the Israeli people.
But what's coming in Egypt about four hours later this afternoon,
We have an entire cabal of the Gulf Arabs, Turkey and Egypt, and even I believe the Prime Minister of England and Canada is coming.
And their goal is to turn the end of this war into a political defeat for Israel, to make sure that Hamas and the Palestinian Arabs gain statehood, rebuilding of Gaza.
