We now are seeing the breaking news of hostages and the Red Cross care as releases are underway. That's one of the other headlines I'm witnessing as we were talking about this. Having Donald Trump fly there had to put more pressure on [Hamas] to do what they said they were going to do. and help almost guarantee or secure or have a better chance of hostages being released. I don't think it's grandstanding. I think it was a smart move of diplomacy when you're dealing with a terrorist organization. (25:08–25:14)
