I'm not sure why you are so worked out. Kev didn't know where the 744 is going. with a few seconds time, it wasn't hard to guess that it might be headed back to, guess what, JFK.
Robbed,
given that the aircraft for DL's flight out tonite of TLV diverted, it is likely the crew is there. DL could have got them on someone else's aircraft but there are a number of cancellations by other carriers so I expect the airport is a little crazy.
Apparently the FAA is allowing US carriers to get their aircraft out of TLV if they had any there (which included US and UA) but DL's was not on the ground.
I'm not sure it would be appropriate to say on an open website where DL's crews are or how they are being removed even if it is known - any more than the movement of a common person is open game for a public website.
