As the war overseas continues to rage, there are many in the U.S. who stand with Israel. However, rampant protesting shows there are plenty who are pro-Palestine in the matter, and in some cases even pro-Hamas.
The Biden administration claims to be on Israel’s side, though critics have condemned the White House for being slow to respond to pro-Palestine rioters on college campuses across the nation.
Now, the President has made an announcement that’s raising eyebrows everywhere — and some citizens are just plain furious with Biden’s statement.
Biden told CNN’s Erin Burnett that while Israel doesn’t purposely target population centers, Gaza civilians have still been killed by Israeli bombs. And these bombs were supplied by the U.S., and that’s where the President has a problem.
As a result, Biden said that if Israel goes into Rafah, he won’t give them any more weapons. “We’re not gonna supply the weapons and the artillery shells that have been used,” he said.
Rafah is known to be the last stronghold of the terrorist group Hamas, which is why many were shocked at the President’s refusal. Former POTUS Donald Trump was downright furious, in fact.
Via Truth Social:
Crooked Joe Biden, whether he knows it or not, just said he will withhold weapons from Israel as they fight to eradicate Hamas Terrorists in Gaza. Hamas murdered thousands of innocent civilians, including babies, and are still holding Americans hostage, if the hostages are still alive.
Yet Crooked Joe is taking the side of these terrorists, just like he has sided with the Radical Mobs taking over our college campuses, because his donors are funding them. Biden is weak, corrupt, and leading the world straight into World War III.
Remember – this war in Israel, just like the war in Ukraine, would have NEVER started if I was in the White House. But very soon, we will be back, and once again demanding PEACE THROUGH STRENGTH!
Trump has frequently called out Biden’s weakness on a number of issues, including the border and the economy.
In this particular instance, he’s ripping the current administration for seemingly defending terrorists, or at least stymying efforts to eradicate these dangerous individuals. Pro-Israel individuals and millions of Jews across the country may agree with Trump.
Those protesting against Israel claim to only be advocating for peace, and reminding people that innocents in Gaza are being affected by the war.
On the other hand, the brutality and ruthlessness of Hamas, well documented in recent decades, really can’t be ignored. And when the President appears to hinder those who are fighting Hamas, that likely won’t go over well.
It’s also probable that the Trump campaign will use Biden’s statement to their advantage when the 2024 election race heats up later this year.
Key Takeaways:
- Former President Donald Trump has reacted to Biden’s statement, regarding his refusal to supply Israel with weapons if they go into Rafah.
- Trump slammed Biden for being “weak and corrupt” and for “leading the world straight into World War III.”
- While the administration claims to be on Israel’s side, this comment of Biden’s has angered many in the U.S. and abroad.
