If we can get off that road and onto a different road, there are a lot of possibilities long term and in the future, but right now…

For the first time in a long time, you see the framework and the output lines of something that could work.

The expectation is, is that this happens quickly.

The only way you're ever going to have anything that looks like statehood is in a negotiated deal with the Israelis.

It's going to require a lot of work and a lot of international support, and that's the end goal here of this entire endeavor after you get the hostages out.

We want to get the hostages out as soon as possible. For that to happen, there can't be a war going on in the middle of it.

For that to happen, there can't be a war going on in the middle of it, and Hamas has to agree to turn them over and we have to have the right people go in and get them.

Let's discuss through the mediators the logistics and the mechanics behind how that happens, and that has to happen very quickly. That cannot drag on.

What you can't have and what we can't see and what we hope we will not see is that we get into these talks, and these talks are then delayed.

If there are five that are ready to go right now, they should be released right now.

We need to get these hostages out, and we just need technocrats that are not terrorists to be able to begin the basic reconstruction of Gaza.

What happens after that? And that is, how do we ensure that we can create a – and help build a Gaza free of terrorism, free of Hamas, free of anything like Hamas?
