Consider This from NPR - Why are Israel’s deals to exchange hostages so lopsided?

An Israeli delegation is in Cairo to hash out details for the second phase of a ceasefire deal with Hamas.

Bougere and Eric T. Miller, to find out what it’s like to reenact a haunting historical discussion and how the play resonates with the current moment.
