Holding Onto the Bodies: What Is Hamas Up To? (Guest: David Rubin)

The former Mayor of Shiloh discusses Hamas being “unable” to find certain Israel hostage bodies – and the fallout that could come from it.

Though the Israel/Hamas ceasefire is currently holding up, there is some question about certain uneasy factors. Like, for instance, 15 Israeli hostage bodies that are still missing.

While Hamas has released the remains of several hostages, many remain unaccounted for, and it’s made note that it is searching for those remains. However, Israel isn’t quite buying the story, and neither is President Donald Trump.

Over the weekend, Trump delivered a stern warning for Hamas to locate the remains on Truth Social. “Hamas is going to have to start returning the bodies of the deceased hostages, including two Americans, quickly, or the other Countries involved in this GREAT PEACE will take action,” he said. “Some of the bodies are hard to reach, but others they can return now and, for some reason, they are not.”

Is Hamas simply trying to hold on to whatever little leverage they have left? Or is there something else possibly at play with their resistance?

Joining us now to discuss this further is David Rubin, former mayor of Shiloh, Israel, and Founder of the Shiloh Israel Children’s Fund. Welcome, Mayor Rubin.

Q&A:

1. Do you believe Hamas is truthfully looking for the remains of those other Israeli hostages? Or could they be holding these remains on purpose for some reason?
2. Would it be beneath Hamas to use these remains as some kind of bargaining chip for something they haven’t gotten yet in this ceasefire?
3. Speaking of the peacefire, do you believe it will last? Or will some certain uneasiness cause conflict between Israel and Hamas again?
4. What about Trump’s involvement? Some are saying that Washington has heavy influence over what’s happening in Israel, but do you think this is the case?
5. Where do you see this situation going in the months ahead? Will things get worse before they get better?
6. Tell us more about the Shiloh Israel Children’s Fund and how it can help those in need.
7. Where can we learn more about you and the Shiloh Israel Children’s Fund?
