Joe Biden Releases Statement Condemning Terrorist Attacks in Israel – Faces Backlash from Social Media Users

Joe Biden released a statement on Saturday condemning the recent terrorist attacks in Israel. Biden expressed his unwavering support for Israel and its right to defend itself, but his words were met with a barrage of criticism on X(formerly Twitter). Most Americans argue that Biden’s financial support to Iran indirectly funds the very terrorism he condemns.

In a statement, Biden wrote, “This morning, I spoke with Prime Minister Netanyahu about the horrific and ongoing attacks in Israel. The United States unequivocally condemns this appalling assault against Israel by Hamas terrorists from Gaza, and I made clear to Prime Minister Netanyahu that we stand ready to offer all appropriate means of support to the Government and people of Israel. Terrorism is never justified. Israel has a right to defend itself and its people. The United States warns against any other party hostile to Israel seeking advantage in this situation. My Administration’s support for Israel’s security is rock solid and unwavering.”

He further added, “Jill and I are keeping in our prayers all of the families who have been hurt by this violence. We are heartbroken by the lives that have been tragically cut short and hope for a swift recovery for all those who have been wounded.”

“My team and I are tracking this situation closely, and I will remain in close touch with Prime Minister Netanyahu,” he concluded.

Today, I spoke with @IsraeliPM about the appalling Hamas terrorist attacks in Israel. I offered our support and reiterated my unwavering commitment to Israel’s security. @FLOTUS and I express our heartfelt condolences to the families who have lost loved ones.

However, Joe Biden’s statement did not sit well with many social media users.

One user wrote, “Let’s be clear – #Hamas could not operate without the logistical and financial support from the Islamic Republic of Iran. And Iran could not continue to operate if not for the financial lifelines they continue to receive from the Biden Administration. Shame on the Biden Administration. They have the blood of my Israeli brothers and sisters on their hands.”

Let’s be clear – #Hamas could not operate without the logistical and financial support from the Islamic Republic of Iran.

And Iran could not continue to operate if not for the financial lifelines they continue to receive from the Biden Administration.

Shame on the Biden…

Another user said, “You need to step down from your job. You have brought war, instead of Peace.”

You need to step down from your job.

You have brought war, instead of Peace.

Yet another pointed out, “Did you explain why you sent $6 billion to Iran and that money was undoubtedly used to fund Hamas and today’s attack on Israel?”

The Supreme Leader of Iran, Ali Khamenei, has said days before the attacks, that the “Zionist regime is cancer and will be eradicated at the hands of the Palestinian people.” He also said, “The usurper Zionist regime is coming to an end .”

Imam Khomeini once described the usurper Zionist regime as a cancer. This cancer will definitely be eradicated at the hands of the Palestinian people.

The usurper regime is coming to an end. Today, the Palestinian youth and the anti-oppression, anti-occupation movement in Palestine is more energetic, more alive, and more prepared than ever during the past 70 or 80 years. God willing, the movement will achieve its goals.

It can be recalled that on the 22nd Anniversary of the 9-11 attacks on America, Joe Biden finalized a deal to send $6 billion to the Iranian government in exchange for as many as five detained US dual nationals held by the brutal regime.

Iran is one of the top state sponsors of terrorism and has been for several years.

This 9-11 Anniversary deal comes after Joe Biden surrendered to the Taliban and gave them over $80 billion in US military equipment as reparations.
