Trump's National Security Advisor Mike Waltz Warns Hamas: 'Release Our Hostages If You Want to Live' Amid Iran and Its Proxies
Dec 23, 2024, 12:58 AM
Mike Waltz, the incoming National Security Advisor under President-elect Donald Trump, has issued a stern warning regarding the consequences for nations or terrorist organizations that take Americans hostage. In a recent interview, Waltz stated, "You take an American, you illegally detain them, if you're a nation state or if you're a terrorist, you hold them hostage, there is going to be all hell to pay!" He emphasized that there have not been enough repercussions for such actions in the past and asserted that this will change under the new administration. Waltz specifically addressed Hamas, stating, "Release our hostages if you want to live," and noted that the leadership of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has played a crucial role in the defeat of Iran and its proxies. He remarked that the actions taken against Hezbollah would one day be the subject of a significant film. Waltz's comments reflect a broader strategy aimed at reestablishing deterrence against those who threaten American citizens abroad.
