Hard talking about hostages. I am unfortunately with Jonathan on this one, I am very skeptical of Trump and what he will actually do come the 20th. I do hope your rainbows and unicorns outlook is correct though. At the end of listening to the podcast, I checked X and in that very short hour, 2 hostages announced recovered. In the same time frame Blinken announces we are close to a deal for the 100th time and of course Bibi says no it’s not. I hope both of these men are held accountable for the hell they put the families through time and time again.

Thanks for all you do! It was so good to see your wonderful face on youtube!

I was a touch sarcastic about the rainbows and unicorns.......and to be honest am clinking to whatever shreds of hope we have. I was doing another interview when the news came in about the bodies of two more hostages being recovered. Brutal. Devastating. It's all so so horrible. I am also meeting constantly with hostage families. I see their agony. This. Is all we have. And this week this is all I'm doing. Thanks for being here and so engaged. Really appreciate the feedback. Tell everyone you know to get on the you tube subscription thing!!!. Best, v

I always particularly appreciate hearing about your attendance at the weekly gathering of hostage families. I like to think that you're a voice of support for those of us who live far away and unfortunately cannot attend.
