Biden says Israel should not occupy Gaza amid expected invasion: ‘Big mistake’
New York Post ^ | October 15, 2023 | Joe Tacopino

President Biden said in an interview aired Sunday night that Israel should not occupy Gaza following a devastating terror attack by Hamas, claiming the move would be a “big mistake.”

Biden was speaking to CBS’s “60 Minutes” in an interview that was filmed Thursday when he was asked about the expected military action on the Gaza Strip by Israeli Defense Forces.

“I think it’d be a big mistake,” Biden said when asked if he would support an Israeli occupation of Gaza.

...

I think that it would be a mistake for Israel to occupy Gaza again.”

The Israeli government gave 1 million people living in the northern area of the Gaza Strip 24 hours to evacuate before an expected assault on the country.

The Israeli Defense Forces have been pummeling Gaza with rockets since the Hamas attack on Oct. 7.

Biden said in the interview that he supports a “humanitarian corridor” that would allow innocent civilians safe passage from the slaughter.

“Our team is talking to them about that,” Biden said of a potential pathway to get citizens out of harm’s way. “Whether there is an outlet to get these women and children out of that area at the moment — but it’s hard.”

The president also said that he wants humanitarian supplies brought into Gaza and was “confident” in Israel’s ability to carry out a justified defense.

“There’s a standard that democratic institutions and countries go by,” he said. “I’m confident that there’s gonna be an ability for the innocents in Gaza to be able to have access to medicine and food and water.”

...at least 29 Americans who have died, according to the US State Department.

I previously suggested that Gaza be divided into independent sectors.

It’d be nice if there was 1/10th of the concern for Christian Armenians being genocided RIGHT NOW... but it’s a virtual media blackout for Christian victims.... of course. Not even a voice of concern from ‘conservative’ pundits about it.

Agreed. But where is the voice of support that should be screaming out from Christian communities everywhere?

Israel really should listen to Field Marshal Biden. After all, his skillful withdrawal from Afghanistan marks him as one of history’s great military geniuses.

Considering that Biden is wrong about everything, Israel should occupy Gaza. Now the trick to that is to occupy Gaza with no Arabs/so-called Palestinians. That will keep the peace.

> What restrictions were placed on Italians during World War II? <

Most of the Allied soldiers who landed in Normandy on D-Day and beyond were Americans. There were also large numbers of British, Canadians, Poles…and Italians!

“Biden says Israel should not occupy Gaza amid expected invasion: ‘Big mistake’”

He can say what he wants, but when 1300 are dead, mostly civilians, executed like insects, I doubt Israel is in the mood to take his ‘advice’ in any way.

Biden should just shut up. His meddling in the Middle East is what brought this about, and he knows it. Now he’s trying to stoke the fire even hotter.

The last thing that Israel, that ANYBODY should do, is listen to Biden. Screw that worthless, brain-dead moron.

The Biden Admin does not support Israel. They hate it. They are just forced to put on a pretend show. At the end of the day the US won’t do much for Israel.
