Biden Supports Israel’s Version of The Hospital Strike In Gaza, Criticizes Hamas

On a solidarity visit to Israel on Wednesday, US President Joe Biden endorsed the country’s claim that Hamas had brought “only suffering” and that Palestinian militants were to blame for a devastating hospital attack in Gaza. “

“The explosion at the hospital in Gaza yesterday deeply saddened and outraged me. In Tel Aviv, Biden began a meeting with Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu by saying, “And based on what I’ve seen, it appears as though it was done by the other team, not you.

However, a lot of people are unsure, so there are many obstacles we must overcome, according to Biden.

Health officials in Gaza, which is governed by Hamas, reported that the explosion, which was the latest in a series of Israeli airstrikes, killed 200 to 300 people.

A rocket launched by the Islamic Jihad accidentally fired, the Israeli military claimed, and it would provide proof that Palestinian militants were to blame.

Biden said, “We have to remember that Hamas does not represent all of the Palestinian people and has only brought them suffering.

Assuring “life-saving capacity to help the Palestinians who are innocent and caught in the middle of this,” he said he was urging Netanyahu to do. “

Israel has agreed to collaborate with the US on a plan to allow aid into Gaza, which has been under Israeli blockade for 16 years and has been under siege for 12 days, according to Secretary of State Antony Blinken, who announced Biden’s visit.

After the deadly Hamas militant attack on October 7, Israel is threatening a ground invasion.

For his trip to Israel, Biden expressed his “proudness.”

As for the Israeli people, Biden said, “I want to say to you that your courage, your commitment, and your bravery is stunning.”

Biden, who had until recently openly criticized some actions taken by Israel’s hard-right government, was eagerly invited by Netanyahu, who had come under fire at home following the deadliest attack in Israel’s history.

Netanyahu praised Biden for making “the first visit of an American president in Israel in a time of war. “

The only thing superior to having a genuine friend like you support Israel is for you to support Israel, according to Netanyahu.

In his opening remarks to Biden, Netanyahu urged world cooperation in the fight against Hamas.

The civilized world must come together to defeat Hamas, according to Netanyahu, “just as the civilized world united to defeat the Nazis and united to defeat ISIS.”

“Mr. President, I can assure you that Israel is working together to defeat Hamas, and we will do so and end this terrible threat.
