Hamas's October 7 killing spree in southern Israel was "horrific" and unjustifiable, but what is "also true is that the occupation and what's happening to Palestinians is unbearable," former President Barack Obama said in comments published Saturday.
The remarks come after Obama earlier warned that an Israeli ground operation in Gaza could "backfire," arguing that while Israel had the right to defend itself, any civilian death would increase support for extremism and harm the country's long-term security.
In his latest intervention, the former president argued for all sides of the debate over Israel and Palestine to acknowledge the "complexity" of the conflict and all parties' valid grievances.
"There is a history of the Jewish people that may be dismissed unless your grandparents or your great grandparents or your uncle or your aunt tell you stories about the madness of antisemitism," Obama said. "And what is true is that there are people right now who are dying who have nothing to do with what Hamas did."

Unfortunately bro it happens in war
Innocents die
It’s disturbing to most decent people
Sherman marched not far from where I type destroying a very wide path
Many here think it was great
People are fickle about atrocity
Most civilized folks are not fickle about what Hamas did a month ago
Your right but remember we’re dealing with Obama the bower.
Look at Gazans cheering for hamas

The Muslim residents of Gaza are not all innocent.
Obama will NEVER do that-—OBAMA is MUSLIM
Hey, you murdering muzzard faggot!
Who cares what you say? You sent $33B to Iran to fund this war and your idiot Traitor Joe sent another $6B.
So just sit down and STFU. In fact get out of my country, you don't even belong here.
Obama is an idiot, bit that’s not news
The people of Gaza elected the genocidal Islamic Nazis. Now they are reaping their reward. Similar to later Hitler Germany. The few good people never stood a chance against the psychopaths.
Getting that way here. My fellow Jews who fell for the anti-Semitism of FDR and many of his top aides have reaped the rewards of their blindness thru their children and grandchildren who support the genocidal actions and goals of Hamas, Hezbollah, Iran (the evil Shah was a friend of Israel, remember?), Russia, and Red China.
What goes around, comes round.
Just look at our schools and universities today. Full of Jewish KAPOS from the professors on down to many students.
Thus of us Jews who warned about this for decades were denigrated as right wing extremists, pro-fascism, etc.
No matter what these fools called us, our warnings were right on target, back then as now.
We knew that Obama was the Islamist/Marxist insider traitor of both American Jews and Christians, among others, As Well As Of America.
But the fools won’t listen and the ovens for Jewish babies and children are back thanks to him, Jarrett, Axelrod, Bill Ayers (Communist Weathermen terrorist leader), the CNN bitches and MSNBC and the mainstream media fools, dupes and MARXIST or racist collaborators.
That’s a shame.

Oh, Barry, you mean like how your orders lead to the deaths of people that had nothing to do with Al-Qaeda? Or Isis, or a bunch of other terrorist groups in the Middle East on your watch? Like that?
