“Hamas has no regard — none whatsoever — for whether those students or those civilians live or die. They faced additional burdens, too: Hamas is holding a significant number of hostages, including American hostage,” he adds.
Despite these “added burdens,” Biden says Israel must differentiate between Hamas and Palestinian civilians, urging it to work to minimize non-combatant deaths.
“We are talking to Israel and Arab partners about a political future for the Palestinian people and a two-state solution with Israel’s security guaranteed, where Israel enjoys peace and normal relations with Arab neighbors,” he says.
The US president also repeats his assertion that “one of the reasons Hamas moved when they did is… [because] I was working very closely with the Saudis on the formal recognition of Israel.”

How could they possibly do this? Completely unreasonable to expect.
@9HPXLBL5mos5MO
Stop killing Palestinian civilians.
@9HPVJLYWomen’s Equality5mos5MO
its sad how the inocent has to die for their leaders war.
@9HPST4R5mos5MO
I think that Biden is right with that statement.
Israel need to stop killing civilians
@9HPSJPCPeace and Freedom5mos5MO
I think its a horrible things happening in the world.
@9HPSV7MRepublican5mos5MO
War is bad but is necessary to make peace.
@9HQLRY55mos5MO
Let us negotiate with Israel and stop the bombings, they are very unnecessary.
@9HQ494V5mos5MO
we need peace in the middle east
@9HQ3L8QRepublican5mos5MO
I believe that both Hamas and Israel are both doing what isn't benefiting society. Hamas is a terrorist group, and should be abolished, but Israel is not combating this issue the right way. Many people agree with Israel about wiping out the Gaza Strip, but this will lead to devastating loss of civilian life.
@9HQ3G7BIndependent5mos5MO
Biden needs to deny aid to Israel until they are UN compliant
@9HQ2MJV5mos5MO
Israel has to eradicate Hamas. They are a terror organization that profits from this war. Yes Israel is killing innocent civilians in war, but that's war. War is brutal for all sides. If we support Palestine that aid goes to the leaders of Palestine and Hamas, not the people who need it. If the U.S intervenes and sides with Hamas, we are siding with a foreign terror organization that would kill all Jews in Israel. Think about it this way, if Israel stops fighting the leaders of Hamas profit off of the war and can do another war and become even richer, whats to stop them?
@9HPXDKZ5mos5MO
I think that we really shouldn't get involved
@9HPWNMM5mos5MO
There needs to be a clear idea that not all Hamas are Palestinian, and not all Palestinians are the Hamas. Yet those words are used interchangeably in the news and is an excuse to harm and abuse innocent civilians
@9HPSDP4 5mos5MO
Hamas doesn't represent real Palestinians
HAMAS is not Palestine, thats the same as saying Afghanistan is the Taliban, or the USA is the CIA it's not, the people within these organizations do not represent in its entirety the country of which it resides.
@9HQ597X5mos5MO
We must stop supporting the genocide in Hamas
@9HPZ74G5mos5MO
Why would they elect Hamas officials to govern Palestine? They caused their downfall.
@9HPSKNW5mos5MO
I have mixed thoughts about Israel and Hamas
@9HPV9XM5mos5MO
people are suffering and some friends I know have said their families are too
@9HPXC4R5mos5MO
The U.S. should completely stay out of the Hamas-Isreal conflict.
Hamas is good. Israel is bad. Change my mind. I’m a jewish Antizionist ****** .
