Doug and Pesach discuss the complex and controversial ceasefire-hostage deal recently signed between Israel and Hamas. Is the release of 1700 Hamas terrorists going to cost more Israeli lives in the future than those being released in this deal? Do the terms of the deal tie Israel's hands, making the goal of destroying Hamas unreachable? Will Netanyahu's governing coalition survive if the deal falls apart (or if it succeeds)? And what can we expect from the Trump administration going forward if the deal falls apart? All these questions hang over this tense situation even as we rejoice for those who are being rescued.
