Yeah, it's hard to envision that we're going to get to the next phase of this. And there's a lot of reasons for it, not least of which is what's playing out in real time, is that Hamas, unfortunately, has little left other than corpses to trade. And the way in which they transfer it, all it does is aggravate and exacerbate the tensions for Israel.

So where I think we're headed next is, frankly, a resurrection of military operations or resumption of military operations at scale and incrementally against Hamas. While diplomatic talks are ongoing. But Hamas, again, has very little leverage left to play. And Israel's interests are inimical to what Hamas is attempting to achieve.

And they have greater latitude now that Hezbollah and Iran are less capable and less likely to engage in offensive military operations. So they may have a freer hand in doing so.

Hamas continues to drip the remains of hostages out and violate terms of the ceasefire agreement and then publicly advertise they're resurrecting their military capability.
