President Trump has established what he's calling a board of peace for Gaza.

And are either of you part of that?

Why do you think peacemakers are not brought to the table or seen as kind of incidental or a side project?

You all heard just last week our President Trump threatened to bomb Iran back to the Stone Ages before a ceasefire was reached right before that deadline.

And you've said throughout our entire conversation that these wars must end, Gaza, Iran, all of it.

As someone who lives here in the United States, I mean, my question is, well, what happens if they don't?

I know you can't live in that world because you're peacemakers, but it's also a reality that you contend with.

Aziz Abu Sarra and Mahmoud Inan, thank you so much.
