Trump’s government is breaking with its longstanding policy of not talking with groups it deems to be terrorist organizations.
In a blistering social media post, the president told Hamas that if it continued to hold hostages, “you are DEAD!”
The post Rubio says foreigners who back terror groups, including Hamas, to face deportation appeared first on The Times of Israel.
President Donald Trump's special envoy Steve Witkoff said that direct U.S. discussions with Hamas militants were in recent days and the message to the Palestinian militant group was that the United States wants to get hostages home.
Experts predict terror group will feel legitimized by talks, which they say show Trump's impatience and a lack of faith in Israel 'to do what is necessary to get the hostages back'
