totally eliminating Hamas,

1108
01:48:27,478 --> 01:48:30,731
or saving the lives of those hostages
and getting them free?

1109
01:48:30,856 --> 01:48:35,236
The reason we succeeded
in getting 110 hostages out -

1110
01:48:35,361 --> 01:48:37,113
that's half the hostages -

1111
01:48:37,238 --> 01:48:40,157
is because we applied military pressure,
not because we stopped applying it.

1112
01:48:40,282 --> 01:48:44,537
We understand, also, that the
one thing that gets Hamas to give them -

1113
01:48:44,662 --> 01:48:46,664
to give these hostages to us -

1114
01:48:46,789 --> 01:48:49,083
is the continued military pressure.

1115
01:48:49,208 --> 01:48:53,208

release the hostages is military pressure.
