Amr Nabil/ReutersUS Secretary of State Antony Blinken has stressed that the best way to bring home American hostages held by Hamas is the ceasefire proposal currently on the table. Blinken noted that despite public rhetoric suggesting otherwise, the Israeli government had not only agreed to the proposal but they “were critical in putting it forward.”“Let’s see if we get an answer from Hamas,” Blinken added. He said the proposal on the table is similar to what Hamas has agreed to in the past. “We just don’t have any cards to play on this right now,” one of the officials said.
