“ALL HELL TO PAY’: Trump Warns Hamas To Return All Hostages by Inauguration Day or Get ‘Hit Harder Than Anybody Has Been Hit’

“Those responsible will be hit harder than anybody has been hit in the long and storied History of the United States of America,” the president-elect went on. “RELEASE THE HOSTAGES NOW!”

Trump’s message came just hours after Israel confirmed that an American citizen who was believed to be held hostage in Gaza, Omer Maxim Neutra, was killed by Hamas during the Oct. 7 terror attack. One-hundred-one hostages remain in Hamas captivity, including at least seven American citizens, three of whom are believed to be dead.

It’s unclear, however, how long Israel’s ceasefire with Lebanon will last. Israeli officials expect the fight against Hezbollah and Iran to continue once President Joe Biden leaves office, the Washington Free Beacon reported. Biden administration officials, meanwhile, are reportedly concerned that the deal could “unravel” even sooner as Hezbollah moves weapons into restricted areas in violation of the agreement, prompting Israeli strikes. Biden adviser Amos Hochstein told the Israelis that they are enforcing the ceasefire “too aggressively,” one Israeli official told Axios.
