Kurtz had this to say on the growing calls for Israel to hold a ceasefire with Gaza:

“They don’t use euphemisms. ‘We want to wipe Israel off the map, off the face of the earth.’ And this Hamas official I mentioned earlier giving this television interview said that was asked point blank by the anchor, do you favor the annihilation of Israel? The answer was no hesitation. ‘Yes, of course’…. It’s hard to make peace with an enemy that thinks you don’t have a right to exist.”
