Speaker 1 (00:00):
We got a question for American mamas. Dear mama's watch
your reaction to all of the videos of the hostages
being reunited with their families in Israel. Well, let's ask
our American mama's ama, ma, she said, and joining us

(00:24):
now are American mama Terry Nderville? Okay, So I'm assuming
you've been watching these videos all day? Lude ye?

Speaker 2 (00:31):
So, first, to God be the glory. To God be
the glory. And it is that same God that I
think I thank him for Donald Trump, President Donald Trump,
because I do not think this could have happened with
any other president.

Speaker 1 (00:46):
You know what's really interesting about this from when I've
been reading some of the behind the scenes of the negotiations, right,
it's that when Israel went and bombed cot Her and
they tried to take out all the top Hamas folks
and they missed, Cotter reacted to that and went, uh, oh,
we're not safe. But what it did was it allowed

(01:08):
an opening for Donald Trump to go in and tell
Israel no more. And when he told Israel no more,
the rest of the Middle East went, oh, wait, maybe
Donald Trump is a fair player here. And Cotter was
now afraid of Israel. Bombing them as they had bombed Iran,
and Cotterr's like, okay, maybe we need to make Camas
come to the tab. It created an opening that I
don't know if anybody else saw.

Speaker 2 (01:30):
He's the deal maker, right, he is the deal maker.
So you know, all of these other presidents they were
trying to help them Hamas become like stronger, trying to
give them things while trying to lessen the strength of Israel.
For some reason, I think what Trump did was he
went in and he recognized, Okay, here's the play at hand.

(01:50):
Got to make them weaker. Got to make Hamas weaker
where they have no other play, and let Israel know
they have the power. But there was a moment where
he had to tell Bbe, you know, take the f
and win. What are you doing? You know he is
he really he had to, and he's good enough friends
with him that he could and b b was smart
enough to take his advice. But I will say this,

(02:11):
if you think about it, this is so ordained by God.
I have no doubt that we went through four years
of hell so that we could have him back to
do all these things. I don't know another man that
could have survived what he survived those four years with him,
tried to take out his family, take him out, and
he continued to press forward because he knew there was
a purpose. He knew there was something higher for him

(02:32):
to do. And when I see the reunion of these
people with their loved ones wailing, not just not just crying,
but they are wailing so thankful to God that it's
almost like they it's almost like they died and now
they're seeing their loved ones from heaven. Like that reunion

(02:54):
is so glorious that I just imagine that's how it
might be.

Speaker 1 (02:57):
Well you think of it, your your loved one taken
hostage right by a murderous terrorist organization. What logic would
you have to say, you know, they're going to come
home and they're going to be fine. The logical thing
would be to assume, yeah, they're dead, right, And now
you actually get twenty of them coming back after two years.

Speaker 2 (03:17):
Of this, and the torture of imagining what's happening to them,
Oh yeah, good, what's happening to them? What's happening to
my baby over there? How are they torturing my baby
right now? I cannot imagine the torture that has been
going through these parents' minds and those who are taken
by Hamas you know, there's a story of a loved ones.

(03:39):
There was a boyfriend and a girlfriend and he had
the opportunity to actually be safe and he wasn't going
to leave her, and to see their reunion it is
I can't stop watching it, and it brings tears to
my eyes, and I'm so grateful to God. I'm so
grateful for the people that were put in place, like
Steve Whitkoff, like Jared Kushner.

Speaker 1 (03:56):
Okay, there's another great example. Jared Kushner had had no
part in this administration until the Cotter bombing, and then
Jared Kushner jumps back in and because of the work
So Jared Kushner, for folks who may not remember, he
is Evanna.

Speaker 2 (04:11):
Trump's Ivanka, Ivanka Trump's.

Speaker 1 (04:13):
Husband, and so he's the son in law. And he
is Jewish, yes, and he was the architect of the
Abraham Accadilliant. So because of the work he did with
the Abraham Accords, he had credibility both again with the
arab and the Israelis. He jumps back into this and
he and Steve Wikkoff go over there and they're doing
shuttle diplomacy between Egypt, between Israel, between Saudi Arabia. He's

(04:36):
going all over the Middle East again without Jared Kushner.
I don't know if this comes to peace.

Speaker 2 (04:41):
As a woman, you go back further and you think,
oh my gosh, if he and Ivanka had not fallen
in love and gotten married, but this have even happened.
You know, today I was watching some friends on social media.
They were getting so upset because they were saying, where
are the celebrities that were, you know, just crying out
to you know?

Speaker 1 (05:00):
Now she's fired now?

Speaker 2 (05:01):
And I want to say, I don't I don't get
involved in it, but I want to say, don't worry
about it. If we don't really care what they say
during you know, times when they're talking about who they
want to vote for their political leanings, if we really
don't care, I don't care. We all know they virtue signal,
and so don't even focus on that. Focus on what

(05:21):
we have just witnessed. A miracle, a real miracle in
our lifetime, something that presidents have tried for generations and
it has not happened. You know, when you're a little
girl and you hear them ask the beauty pageant contestant,
what would you like to see happen? And they say
peace in the Middle East, and you're like, what, that's

(05:41):
so far removed from me. But now as an adult,
as a fifty four year old woman, and I realize
what has just taken place, all I can do is
just lift my praise to God. I thank God.

Speaker 1 (05:51):
It's a really good point. If I don't care what
their oscar speech says, why would what would they have
to add in this moment?

Speaker 2 (05:57):
I don't care.
