President Joe Biden addressed the nation for the second time about the war between Israel and the Iranian-backed Palestinian terror organization on Tuesday, declaring “Israel has the right to respond — and, indeed, has a duty to respond” to Hamas attacks.
Flanked by Vice President Kamala Harris and Secretary of State Antony Blinken, Biden reacted to emerging news of the 1,000 Israelis killed, nearly 3,000 wounded, and over 100 kidnapped on Saturday.
“If the United States experienced what Israel has experienced, our response would be swift, decisive, and overwhelming.”

Who is this state department lisping shorter male giving presser?
I figured he’d say things like this.
Forked tongue talk.
Qatar hosts Hamas. Qatar and Biden brokered billion dollars giveaway to Iran. Biden made Qatar an ally.
Trump focused on Qatar not cultivating terrorism. Brandonbama reversed that.
They all appear shaken and about to cry. Is it because shat is about to go down and they messed up or are they really unprepared and have no idea what to do.
The media is killing this guy for not mentioning Palestine. He’s shaky but standing strong. Media guy will not stfu.
Reporter yelling about baby killer Israeli. He needs to be escorted out.
Well here is the problem
Well I been reading up about Hamas since Saturday and no one is mentioning that Israel created a terrorist group with the hate Israel group the Muslim Brotherhood to fight the PLO
I did find some bloggers make this claim. However a quick scan of the articles that claim it does not provide any facts to back up the claims.
What I am seeing boils down to this. “Because Israel did not immediately exterminate Hamas when they showed up in Gaza in 1997, Israel created Hamas”. The blogger then trys to claim that because this Muslim front group linked to Hamas or this “charity” linked to Hamas was recognized by Israel during any number of peace negotiations, that means Israel created Hamas.
That is a rather bit of labored rationalization trying to cling to an existing opinion rather then make a serious argument.
Did Israel try to play one terrorist group off the other? Probably. That a millennium old tactic for civilizations fighting barbarians. Try to set the one of the tribe to war with the other tribes.
Was that a mistake? Probably but that is a very long long way rationally from “Israel created Hamas”.
Elections have consequences! Everyone of you moral degenerates that voted for Biden gave us this situation.
DRUNK OR HIGH???
“Flanked by Vice President Kamala Harris and Secretary of State Antony Blinken, “

Flanked by two potted plants.
Israel also runs between raindrops in Syria. They didn’t take out Assad because they concluded he was likely better than whoever would succeed him. Something similar with Jordan’s king also.
Well the way I understand it Hamas in the beginning at least was more involved in charity work and politics and weren’t advocating terrorist threats at the time. And since it was infiltrated by Israelis and their informants it served as the Israelis eyes and ears too. Only later did they go bad and become what they are today.
Israel WILL respond, and when they do FJB will be shouting about the response not being too harsh...
It’s not only Hamas. It’s expanding quickly Joey….. now Syria, Lebanon started firing , and Iran will soon.
I believe that whether or not hamas, per se, was created, the palestiners would still be uprising under some other guise.
Harris did not look very happy with Biden’s surprisingly forceful defense of Israel.
We’ll see how long that position lasts.
The decision to support Israel over Hamas splits the Democrats.
Even Michigan’s Governor Whitmer spoke at the huge synagogue service. After being criticized for silence as she tried to figure out the best lie to phrase in just the right way for votes. Rashida Tlaib (in MI) is her pal and must be mad now.
Only the BLM/ANTIFA folks and Muslims support Hamas so it's a loser in the Democratic Party. The Squad is radical so the "mainstream" Democrats are steering clear from them.
I think it’s GREAT that the Democrats have an issue that divides them.
Yeah, pretty sure Osama bin Laden built roads and schools, too.
Muddies the water for the locals.
There’s a book out there somewhere about this sort of thing. Warlords, Inc.
