Jerusalem — In interviews over the weekend, President Biden said Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's disregard for the "innocent lives being lost" amid his country's war with Hamas in the Gaza Strip was "hurting Israel more than helping Israel."
Netanyahu said Mr. Biden was "wrong on both counts," claiming that both his political and military policies were supported by an "overwhelming majority" of Israelis who "support the action that we're taking to destroy the remaining terrorist battalions of Hamas."
Mr. Biden's remarks to MSNBC on Saturday reflected his growing frustration over the situation in Gaza, where the Hamas-run health ministry says well over 30,000 people have been killed since Israel launched its offensive in response to the Palestinian militant group's Oct. 7 terrorist attack. That attack left about 1,200 people dead across southern Israel and saw Hamas seize roughly 240 hostages, about 100 of whom are believed to remain in captivity.

"You cannot have 30,000 more Palestinians dead as a consequence," said the U.S. president, adding that there were "other ways to deal, to get to, to deal with the trauma caused by Hamas."
Netanyahu, responding to Mr. Biden's remarks in an interview with Politico, vowed that his forces would push into Rafah.
"I have a red line," he said. "You know what the red line is? That Oct. 7 doesn't happen again. Never happens again.”

And the Dems and reflexively anti-Israel fools of all stripes parrot the numbers put out by jihadi psychos as if they’re gospel. Good for Bibi for ignoring the chorus.
Nazi Germany started a war. We killed “innocent Germans” and didn’t worry about it.
Japan started a war. We killed “innocent Japanese” and didn’t worry about it.
Hamas started a war. Israel is going to end up killing “innocent Palestinians”. I don’t see why they would worry about it.
CBS “news” spit. The headline is an indictment - f them.
[|to deal with the trauma caused by Hamas.”]
Oh, 1,200 dead and 240 hostages kidnapped by Hamas is “trauma”?
Oh, O.K.
The women in Gaza raise their sons to he rapists.
They blow up so fast.
If Hamas wanted the war to end all they would have to do is release the hostages.
Now We're Talkin'!
Well said.
There are no “innocent Palestinians!”
They voted for Hamas!
Lie with dogs, get fleas!
AFAIAC, Bibi can killem all!
