Trey Yingst: 'At this point, diplomacy has failed'

>> Lawrence: "FOX & FRIENDS" STARTS RIGHT NOW. ♪ >> Pete: WE GO STRAIGHT TO THAT FOX NEWS ALERT. THE FUNERAL FOR HERSCH GOLDBERG POLL LYNN, THE AMERICAN HOSTAGE KILLED BY HAMAS IN GAZA WILL BE HELD TODAY AT 9:00 A.M. EASTERN TIME IN ISRAEL. >> ALSO TODAY PRESIDENT BIDEN RETURNS TO THE WHITE HOUSED TWO REPORTEDLY U.S. HOSTAGE NEGOTIATING TEAM TO DISCUSS A DEAL TO RELEASE THE REMAINING HOSTAGES. >> Lawrence: SHOULDN'T THEY ALREADY BEEN BE WORKING ON THIS IN NEW YORK CITY THOUSANDS GATHERED IN NEW YORK CITY. HOSTAGES FOUND IN A TUNNEL IN RAFAH OVER THE WEEKEND. >> Pete: THIS IS A LIVE LOOK AT MASSIVE PROTEST IN ISRAEL CALLING FOR A CEASE-FIRE AND HOSTAGE RELEASE DEAL TREY YINGST IS LIVE IN TEL AVIV. HEY, TREY. >> YEAH, HEY, GUYS, GOOD MORNING. DEMONSTRATIONS ERUPTED ACROSS ISRAELI OVERNIGHT AFTER THE COUNTRY'S HEALTH MINISTRY ANNOUNCED THAT SIX ISRAELI HOSTAGES WERE EXECUTED IN HAMAS CAPTIVITY. THOUSANDS OF PEOPLE BLOCKED ISRAEL'S MAIN HIGHWAY THAT RUNS THROUGH THE SECOND LARGEST CITY OF TEL AVIV, CLASHES UNFOLDED BETWEEN POLICE AND PROTESTERS, WITH SECURITY FORCES BRINGING IN HORSES AND WATER CANONS TO CLEAR THE ROAD. THE DEMONSTRATORS DEMANDED THAT THE GOVERNMENT REACH A HOSTAGE AGREEMENT AND BRING THE REMAINING CAPTIVES IN GAZA HOME. TAKE A LOOK. >> THERE ARE CLEAR DISAGREEMENTS BETWEEN ISRAELI LEADERSHIP, BETWEEN ISRAEL'S DEFENSE MINISTERIO LAVA GALLANT AND THE COUNTRY'S PRIME MINISTER BENJAMIN NETANYAHU. FOR THE PEOPLE HERE IN THE STREETS OF TEL AVIV, THEY ARE NOT INTERESTED IN POLITICS. THEY'RE NOT INTERESTED IN WHAT THE GOVERNMENT HAS TO SAY UNLESS IT IS BRINGING THE HOSTAGES HOME. >> TO ME WE DO KNOW THAT WE WANT A DEAL NOW BECAUSE THOSE PEOPLE SUPPOSED TO BE HOME YESTERDAY. >> Trey: THE UNREST ABOUT THE HOSTAGES SHIFTED TO CIVIL PROTEST WITH A BROAD STRIKE ANNOUNCED TODAY. INTERNATIONAL AIRPORT WAS ON STRIKE FOR TWO HOURS THIS MORNING AFFECTING INCOMING AND OUTGOING FLIGHTS. OTHER TRANSPORTATION IS AFFECTED AS WELL INCLUDING JERUSALEM'S LIGHT RAIL TRAIN WITH FRUSTRATION GROWING ACROSS ISRAEL ABOUT THE LACK OF A DEAL. PRESIDENT BIDEN WILL MEET WITH VICE PRESIDENT HARRIS IN THE SITUATION ROOM LATER TODAY GIVING ISRAEL AND HAMAS EXIT RAMP. ISRAEL AWNCH LAUNCHED FRESH STRIKES AGAINST HEZBOLLAH LEBANON OVERNIGHT. THE WAR INSIDE GAZA HAS BEEN ONGOING FOR THE PAST 332 DAYS STILL NO DIPLOMATIC EFFORTS TO END THE CONFLICT. GUYS, BACK TO YOU. >> Lawrence: YOU KNOW, TREY, THE EMOTION OF GRIEF AND LOSS IS NOT LOGICAL. YOU JUST FEEL. AND THE REASON WHY I ASK PUT THAT INTO THE CONTEXT IS WHEN YOU LOOK AT BENJAMIN NETANYAHU THE IDF HAS ALREADY -- FROM DAY ONE, TRIED TO DO HOSTAGE NEGOTIATIONS, THEY HAVE BEEN OUT THERE TO GET THEIR PEOPLE BACK. DO THE PEOPLE OF ISRAEL, PEOPLE PROTESTING IN THE STREET ACTUALLY THINK THERE WOULD BE SOME TINY OF DEAL EVEN WHETHER YOU HAVE SINWAR THAT IS SAYING HE WANTS TO BE PART OF THE DEAL MEANING THAT THE IDF WILL STOP ALL PLANS TO GO AFTER HIM. DO THEY THINK THERE'S SOME TYPE OF NEGOTIATION THAT CAN BE REACHED? THE MAJORITY OF HOSTAGES STILL BEING HELD INSIDE GAZA SOME DEAD SOME ALIVE DO BELIEVE A DEAL IS POSSIBLE COMES DOWN TO THE INDIVIDUAL. WE TALKED WITH ONE MAN LAST NIGHT AT THAT DEMONSTRATIONS WHO SON IS STILL BEING HELD IN GAZA. IS HE BELIEVED TO BE ALIVE. HE WAS TAKEN ON OCTOBER 7TH. ON BLACK SATURDAY FROM THE NOVA MUSIC FESTIVAL. AND YOU COULD SEE THE PAIN IN HIS EYES. HE DIDN'T CARE HOW THE GOVERNMENT GOT THERE, BUT JUST THAT THEY WERE ABLE TO CUT AN AGREEMENT WITH HAMAS AND GET THE REMAINING HOSTAGES OUT OF GAZA. THERE IS AN UNDERSTANDING THAT TIME IS RUNNING OUT. AND AS HAMAS GETS BACK INTO A CORNER, ISRAELI FORCES CONTINUE TO PUSH DEEPER INTO CENTRAL GAZA, THE LAST REMAINING HAMAS STRONG HOLD THERE IN THE CITY. THEY WILL START ACT LIKE CAGED ANIMALS. THEY WILL FIGHT BACK IN WAYS THAT THEY HAVE NOT DONE SO SO FAR AND THIS AS WE UNFORTUNATELY LEARNED OVER THE PAST 48 HOURS. WILL INCLUDE EXECUTING HOSTAGES. AND THAT IS WHAT SO MANY OF THESE FAMILIES FEAR AND IT'S WHY THEY ARE IN THE STREETS OF ISRAEL AGAIN TODAY, DEMANDING AN AGREEMENT. >> Pete: TREY, IF A DEAL WERE EASY YOU ARE NEGOTIATING WITH A TERRORIST ORGANIZATION. WHAT'S THE BIGGEST STICKING POINT FOR BOTH SIDES? WHAT IS EACH SIDE HOLDING ON TO THAT MAKES A DEAL SO DIFFICULT? >> Trey: YEAH, LOOK, ABSOLUTELY. ISRAEL IS NOT NEGOTIATING WITH A REASONABLE OR RATIONAL ACTOR. HAMAS HAS CHANGED THEIR POSITION FROM THE BEGINNING OF THESE CONVERSATIONS. THE ISRAELIS HAVE AS WELL. BUT THEY SAY THEY HAVE OFFERED A DEAL WHEN IT'S NOT ACCEPTED THEY MOVE FORWARD WITH THE WAR AND CONTINUE TO PUSH DEEPER INTO GAZA. LOOK, I HAVE TALKED WITH BOTH SENIOR ISRAELI LEADERSHIP, INCLUDING THE COUNTRY'S DEFENSE MINISTERIO LAVA GALLANT RESULT IN PELL TIMES AND SENIOR HAMAS LEADERSHIP. JUST LAST WEEK A SENIOR HAMAS OFFICIAL SENT ME A POWERPOINT OF THE DEMANDS THAT HIS ORGANIZATION HAS AND THE TWO KEY DISCUSSIONS RIGHT NOW THAT BASICALLY ARE THE STICKING POINTS IN THE TALKS ONE HAS TO DO WITH THE PHILADELPHIA CORRIDOR, THAT STRIP OF LAND THAT SITS BETWEEN EGYPT AND GAZA. IT'S ABOUT THE WIDTH OF A FOOTBALL FIELD. THE ISRAELIS WANT TO MAINTAIN A PRESENCE THERE. HAMAS SAYS THEY ARE NOT WILLING TO MOVE FORWARD WITH THE AGREEMENT WITH F. THAT'S THE CASE. HAVE YOU SEEN OUR REPORTS INSIDE GAZA. >> THIS IS THE SUPPLY ROUTE ISRAELIS CUT ACROSS GAZA TO THE MEDITERRANEAN TAKENNIAN SEA. THEY WANT TO MAINTAIN A PRESENCE UNLESS IN CASE THEY OPERATIONAL RAIDS INSIDE GAZA. THESE ARE THE TWO STICKING POINTS HAMAS SAYS IS NONSTARTNER OPERATION. EVEN AND EVERY DAY WILL THE GOAL POSTS WERE CHANGING. AS WE SPEAK. THERE ARE STILL WORKING GROUPS TRYING TO HAMMER OUT THE DETAILS. >> Emily: TREY, TO THAT POINT, IT SEEMS AS IF WE TALK ABOUT A KEEL, IT'S FRAN LAY DEAL WITH THE DEVIL. THEREFORE, WHAT DOES INTERNATIONAL PRESSURE, WHAT ROLE DOES IT PRAY ISRAEL'S PART RIGHT NOW SAYING WHY ARE WE EVEN WASTING TIME NEGOTIATING A DEAL WHEN, TO YOUR POINT, YOU ARE EXECUTING HOSTAGES AND POTENTIALLY EXECUTING WAR. WHAT PART DOES THAT PLAY? >> IT'S A GREAT QUESTION. LOOK, WHEN YOU STEP BACK FROM THE SITUATION, YOU'LL REMEMBER THERE ARE AMERICAN CITIZENS BEING HELD INSIDE THE GAZA STRIP BY HAMAS IN THE OPPORTUNITIES BENEATH GAZA AS WE SPEAK. AND SO, THE PRESIDENT MEETING WITH THE VICE PRESIDENT TODAY IN THE SITUATION ROOM, BUT, IT'S NOT ENOUGH TO SIMPLY HOLD MEETINGS. SOLUTIONS NEED TO COME TO THE SURFACE TO GET THESE REMAINING HOSTAGES OUT OF GAZA. AND TO END THE WAR. BECAUSE, LOOK, AN ONGOING CONFLICT DOESN'T BENEFIT EITHER SIDE. THERE ARE HOSTAGES, AMERICAN CITIZENS BEING HELD IN GAZA, WHO WILL DIE IF THE CONFLICT CONTINUES AS WE HAVE SEEN HAMAS IS NOW EXECUTING HOSTAGES ACCORDING TO THE COUNTRY'S HEALTH MINISTRY HERE. AND FOR THE PALESTINIAN PEOPLE, THOUSANDS OF CIVILIANS HAVE BEEN KILLED SINCE THE OCTOBER 7TH MASSACRE DURING THE ISRAELI AIR AND GROUND CAMPAIGN AGAINST GAZA. AND SO, THE IDEA OF DIPLOMACY, THE SHUTTLE DIPLOMACY THAT'S GONE BACK AND FORTH, AMERICAN OFFICIALS INCLUDING TOP BIDEN ADMINISTRATION OFFICIALS TRAVELING TO THE REGION SIMPLY FERRY MESSAGES BACK AND FORTH. IT'S NO LONGER ENOUGH. THE CLOCK IS TICKING. PEOPLE ARE DYING ON BOTH SIDES OF THIS CONFLICT. AND AT THIS POINT, DIPLOMACY HAS
