Speaking from the Oval Office starting at 8 p.m. ET, Biden made the case to Americans that it’s vital to both global and U.S. national security to assist Israel as it responds to terror attacks by Hamas as well as to continue help for Ukraine as it fends off Russian invaders.
“Hamas and Putin represent different threads but they share this in common: They both want to completely annihilate a neighboring democracy,” Biden said, referring to the extremists and Russia’s president.
Biden said he knows the conflicts can seem distant and Americans might be asking why it’s vital to U.S. security interests that Israel and Ukraine succeed.
“History has taught us that when terrorists don’t pay a price for their terror, when dictators don’t pay a price for their aggression, they cause more chaos and debt and more destruction,” Biden said. “They keep going – and the cost and the threats to America and the world keep rising.”
I’d wager they’re implying a “never Biden” stance is basically a vote for Trump in a contest between the two. In reality, Biden has clearly told Israel to restrain themselves and gotten them to agree to allow in humanitarian aid, whereas Trump would have them carpet-bombing Gaza
Exactly, he was the one who moved US embassy to Jerusalem and recognizing it as capital of Israel, even though he was advised to not do it.
He also claims he killed Soleimani (nearly starting war with Iran) because Nethanyahu asked him. Of course Nethanyahu won’t admit it so we don’t know, but I tend to think it probably is true as he would never give anyone credit, and claiming that doesn’t save him.
Every policy he did in his 4 years was pro Israel. Things he didn’t need to do and only were stirring the pot.
Now he magically supposedly supports Palestinians, calling Hezbollah smart. Interestingly when there seems to be similar position in Kremlin.
