US President Joe Biden has suggested that Israel’s military response in Gaza has been “over the top” and said he is seeking a “sustained pause in the fighting” to help ailing Palestinian civilians.
“I’m of the view, as you know, that the conduct of the response in the Gaza Strip has been over the top,” Biden told reporters at the White House.
He added that he had been pushing for a deal to normalise Saudi Arabia-Israel relations, increased humanitarian aid for Palestinian civilians and a temporary pause in fighting to allow the release of hostages taken by Hamas.
“I’m pushing very hard now to deal with this hostage ceasefire,” Biden said. “There are a lot of innocent people who are starving, a lot of innocent people who are in trouble and dying, and it’s gotta stop.”
You know what else is over the top, you evil old fuck? Cutting off 350 million in aid to refugees because Israel lied and claimed relief workers were HAMAS.
Biden is banking on his sycophants taking him at his utterly worthless word.
Wow, that would suck if the claims against UNRWA weren’t true. Good thing that they are.
You know, aside from there being litttle merit to their claims and all. Israel is about as trustworthy as North Korea when it comes to their systematic ethnic cleansing.
But let’s assume they were telling the truth, as genocidal ethnic cleansing monsters are prone to doing.
13 employees of 30,000 were accused of aiding HAMAS. That’s 13 / 30000, or 0.0043% of the employees. Do tell me how that’s sufficient justification to bar aid for millions.
Hint: It isn’t, unless you are using it as a pretext.
