    Freed Hostage: ‘Trump is the Reason I’m Alive’

    An Israeli American hostage recently freed from Hamas released a powerful message thanking Donald Trump for being the “reason I am home alive” and urged him to bring those remaining in captivity home.

    Keith Siegel, 65, issued a statement on Friday, February 14, commending the president for his “strength” and “leadership” during the conflict in Gaza while revealing the horrors he faced as a prisoner of Hamas.

    “Since February 1, I am a newly released Hamas hostage. I’m a survivor. I was held for 484 days in unimaginable conditions. Every single day felt like it could be my last,” Seigel said.

    “President Trump, you are the reason I am home alive. You are the reason I was reunited with my beloved wife, four children, and five grandchildren. Thank you for your continued fight against terror, and for your bold leadership that has brought me and many others back home to our families, to safety, and to security.”

    Siegel also shared that the horrors he faced included being starved and tortured “both physically and emotionally. … When I was in Gaza I was in constant fear, fear for my life and for my personal safety,” he said. “Terrorists kicked me, spat on me, and held me with no water, no light, no air to breathe.” (DM/VFI News)

    “But the Lord your God you shall fear; and He will deliver you from the hand of all your enemies.” – 2 Kings 17:39
