White House national security council spokesperson John Kirby joins TODAY to address the airstrikes that killed members of World Central Kitchen and the calls for an independent investigation. He also weighs in on if the United States is prepared to cut military aid to Israel if they don’t see meaningful changes in fighting.
Guthrie:
...The IDF has just released its findings. It says the strike on the vehicle a grave mistake, stemming from a serious failure from mistaken identification, errors in decision-making and an standard operating procedures. Errors in decision-making.. The WCK says, fine, but it wants an independent investigation...
Kirby: we will look at that investigation ourselves and take a look at and see what we think of their findings and their conclusions before we make any judgment going forward. This is an agency of the Israeli government that has conducted independent Investigations before...it is almost like an inspector general if you will. They have done this in the past.
Guthrie:...
Kirby: I don't want to get ahead of the president... I will note, one of the things the president did talk about with the PM Netanyahu was the very real threat they are facing from Iran, right now, a very public threat from the Iranians. And the President made it clear, that our support for Israel and their self-defense is not going to change. The commitment the United states made over previous administrations republican or Democratic and we are going to make sure that to meet that commitment as well. They live in a tough neighborhood. While we are all focused, rightly, on the war in Hamas and Gaza, they're under threat from the Houthis and militia groups they are funding resourcing training and preparing in Iraq and Syria.
Guthrie: Fair enough. To that point, the President when he went to Israel, he called his support for Israel, rock solid and unwavering. Now it seems, Israel is on a short leash.
Kirby: Noth things can be true. You can have a rock solid, unwavering support for Israel because of the neighborhood they're living in and threats they are facing but take note in the way in which they're conducting operations. That's the discussion they had yesterday...
Is there going to be an independent investigation into the murder of over one thousand Israelis on October 6th? And the kidnapping of hundreds? No. So Kirby and Blinken and Biden can STFU.
Well said.
Maybe we should appoint TheSquad or CAIR to investigate Oct7?
Will there be an investigation of how many innocent US Citizens are killed every day by illegal immigrants through murders, knives, car accidents, drugs?
Will there be an investigation of how many innocent US Citizens are killed every day by illegal immigrants through murders, knives, car accidents, drugs?
The ONE person killed with ties to America was a U.S./Canadian dual citizen
It’s Biden’s 2 State Solution.
Minnesota and Michigan.
Where Muslims run rampant.
