President Joe Biden was asked by a reporter in Israel on Wednesday what made him confident that the Israelis weren’t behind the explosion that killed hundreds at a Gaza hospital on Tuesday.
Biden responded that it was “the data I was shown by my Defense Department.”
Two U.S. officials told ABC News the Pentagon independently concluded the Gaza hospital blast was likely caused by an errant Palestinian Islamic Jihad rocket that fell short of its target.
Just helping Israel doesn’t help Israeli lives… Sending all that money to Israel is no good when all they do with it is use it for terrorist attacks like the ones they’re carrying out right now.
Damn, it’s almost like the logic cuts both ways
In no way am I suggesting Israeli crimes be forgotten, or that they’re let off the hook. But in this instance Hamas attacked civilians and that’s not going to go away, even if you can spin Hamas’s actions as retribution.
The thing that sickens me the most was Hamas murdered multiple people who were vociferous and lifelong advocates for a two state solution and wanted compromise. And Hamas has never shown leadership; the people of Palestine deserve better from both directions.
BDS is the peaceful solution.
You can stick your fingers in your ears and call me all the names you want. Smarter people than you or I have already given their opinions. Go look one up since you’re clearly not interested in discussion.
Edit: Less than a day later
The international community and particularly Israel’s allies, including EU member states, the US and the UK [must] impose a comprehensive arms embargo on all parties to the conflict given that serious violations amounting to crimes under international law are being committed. States must refrain from supplying Israel with arms and military materiel, including related technologies, parts and components, technical assistance, training, financial or other assistance. They should also call on states supplying arms to Palestinian armed groups to refrain from doing so
