Blinken deletes social media post calling for Israel-Hamas 'cease-fire'
Fox News ^ | 10/9/2023 | Pilar Arias

Secretary of State Antony Blinken took to social media Sunday regarding Hamas' deadly strikes on Israel, but one post was taken down following some online backlash.

"Turkish Foreign Minister @HakanFidan and I spoke further on Hamas’ terrorist attacks on Israel. I encouraged Türkiye’s advocacy for a cease-fire and the release of all hostages held by Hamas immediately," read Blinken’s post on X, formerly Twitter, according to the New York Post.

Pandemonium broke out over the internet while the post was up.

"The Biden Administration is showing its true colors. Once Israel indicated it was going on offense into Gaza, Blinken encourage a cease-fire," Rep. Mike Waltz, R-Fla., tweeted in response with a screenshot of the now-deleted post.

I thought AOC deleted her cease-fire comment and actually was calling for Hamas to stop the violence. Has she not sided with the others in the goon squad?

But her original tweet was deleted because she got so much blowback on social media. Why would she again do an about face and be subject to more backlash?

Every Dem President has called for a ceasefire in which Israel ends up giving up “land for peace” followed by less security and another war later. Israel gives, Arabs take, with the peace table set up by the Americans. Since Truman left office.

Old joke by the Phil Donahue impersonator on SNL: (standing in audience and raising his arm and bowing his head) “What I can’t understand is we talk to the Arabs every single day over the gas station convenience store counter but we can’t get ourselves to agree to talk to them over the peace conference table in the Middle East.”
