Those are our responsibilities, not Israel\u2019s, or any other nations. That said, the Israeli Defense Forces and security forces have the expertise operating in Gaza and working with the American government and specifically our intelligence services as well.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI\u2019m confident that if Israel\u2019s government had a chance to rescue American citizens, they would do the exact same for our citizens that they would do for Israel,\u201d he continued. \u201cBut our hostage rescue teams always have to be available. We simply wouldn\u2019t want to have any kind of conflict with Israel\u2019s hostage rescue teams. We want to work with them, hand-in-glove to make sure every hostage gets back alive.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>WATCH:<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p><\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Sen.
