"FOX NEWS HOST BRIAN KILMEADE: This guy Marwan Barghouti, who's been in jail. He was a Palestinian Authority member. He seems to be the symbol that they want out. Not nobody ever nobody thinks he's a member of Hamas. He talked about a two-state solution. The Israelis are reluctant to let him ou.t Do you have a sense of of what we should do or what they should do there?"
"CONGRESSMAN DERRICK VAN ORDEN (R-WI): I think what the Israeli government needs to do is make sure that the members of Hamas adhere to these provisions. It's pretty simple. So the amount of people that the Israelis are going to have to release to get their hostages back is just remarkable. And this is their decision"
"CONGRESSMAN DERRICK VAN ORDEN (R-WI): That's correct. And Brian, honestly, I disagree with this strategy, but this is the Israeli government's decision to get their people back. I am not a fan of negotiating with terrorists. These people are terrorists. That's who they are yesterday. That's who they are going to be today and tomorrow. So the Israeli government collectively has made a decision to give their people backing. I can respect that, but I respectfully disagree with it."
President Donald Trump announced a deal between Israel and Hamas that includes return of all Israeli hostages taken during the October 7 attack. Representative Derrick Van Orden, who has Trump’s endorsement, criticized a provision of the deal involving prisoner releases, citing concern about freeing convicted militants such as Marwan Barghouti. Fox & Friends First hosts noted the scope of the exchange, mentioning 1,975 prisoners including 250 on death row. Van Orden urged Israel to ensure Hamas adheres to the deal, said he disagrees with the strategy, and called negotiating with terrorists unacceptable while respecting Israel's decision to retrieve its people.
