Armstrong and Getty.

And now here's Armstrong and getting it.

In addition to those 20 living Israeli hostages,

we were also expecting to see the remains of a further 28 deceased Israeli hostages.

Now, we did see those four coffins earlier that emerged from Gaza into Israel so those

families can finally have some closure and grief.

But that clocked in Hostages Square that has been taking count of every minute, every hour, every day since those

hostages were first taken on October 7.

That clock will continue to tick until all of the bodies of all of the hostages are finally

home.

Yeah, so that's Clarissa Ward on CNN.

I don't mind that people were using that kind of language because I understand why.

It's the, this is as good as it's going to get given the circumstances.

We want the live people to get back, blah, blah, blah.

But it's since we, Joe and I can't, you know, upend world peace the way, you know, some politicians or major news outlets could, I can say out loud.

To say that the deceased will be returned as opposed to the murdered or tortured to death or

starved is you know really something again I understand why they're doing it

because you don't want to cause any waves I mean this is this good for everybody
