Welcome to today's edition of the Clay Travis and Buck Sexton Show Podcast.

Second hour of Clay and Buck kicks off right now. We're looking at the Israel Hamas war,

bringing you up to speed with all of the latest. There is an effort underway to get aid into Gaza.

There's a massive humanitarian crisis unfolding there. The major Israeli

ground war against Hamas, which will occur in Gaza, has not yet kicked off.

But it could happen any day now. There's a lot that's still going on here and unresolved.

An hour by hour, the picture is changing. Joe Biden here. This is on Air Force One.

And here he is. This is cut three talking about what his goals are by going to the region.

hostages. Specifically, it's likely that the Palestinians are moving them around so that it

becomes very difficult for a rapid response raid to free them. So they're likely moving some of

them. We don't know that, but that's in keeping with the practices of terrorist groups like this in

the past. And we want to get some kind of resolution on this before though, because once the war

starts and buildings are being leveled and the missiles and the bullets are flying, those hostages,

the chance of getting them out safely seems like it diminishes dramatically. I don't understand

why this isn't the number one story associated with Israel right now. And I was watching and I've

been and I know it's it's tough, but if you are a parent, can you imagine or a grandparent,

but a parent in particular, can you imagine the 10 days of hell that you have been through
