US President Joe Biden hinted that he could support a Gaza ceasefire if Hamas released all the 222 hostages it seized from southern Israel on October 7.
During a White House event, a reporter asked him, “Is the United States supporting a hostage for a ceasefire deal.”
Biden responded, “We should have a ceasefire,” he said and then corrected himself.
“We should have the hostages released and then we should talk,” Biden said.
He spoke as the Israeli army has amassed at the Gaza border and is prepared for a ground campaign to oust Hamas from the Strip.
The US has advised Israel to hold off on a ground assault in the Hamas-controlled Gaza Strip and is keeping Qatar - a broker with Hamas - apprised of those talks, sources said.
The White House, Pentagon and State Department have stepped up private appeals for caution in conversations with the Israelis.

Qatar should be leveled.
Loooook at me...I stopped ww3 singlehandley....LOOOOOOK AT ME.....Joe Biden for president 2024..I stop world wars......
No. Not a snowball’s chance.
Do NOT negotiate with terrorists. Retribution is the ONLY thing they will understand.
FJB
A ceasefire equals Hamas getting away with it..that is what a ceasefire is..whenever you hear anyone calling for a ceasefire they are actually saying “Yeah we want Hamas to end up being the winner here”
Biden should quit telling Israel what to do.
Who is the Hammy leader? Corn Pop? Joe is going down pretty easy. Taking a “dive”? Probably.
And when will the baby beheading, young girl raping, innocent family murderers come to justice? How will they be stopped from doing this again?
Ya thought so.
Israel has to annihilate every single Hamas member because if they dont, next yr or whenever they gain back enough members, what happened in Israel two weeks ago will be childs play compared to what they do next
Biden works for Hamas.
So Hamas does it again, kills a bunch of women and children, grab hostages and then gets away with it again?
Only after the hostages are released. Then say “fake” and nuke Gaza.
Joe is getting his 10% from Iran.
Uh.. hell to the no.
Forget it Joe. Netanyahu has to rehabilitate himself and regain the trust of the Israeli citizens.
Uh, no.

At least half those hostages are dead. Or in the case of the females of all ages, raped and dead. How are you going to handle that, Potato Head Joe?
Biden works for Obama who works for Hamas.
