Biden says Israel’s PM is “hurting Israel more than helping” with Hamas war in Gaza

President Biden is gradually increasing his criticism of Israel’s war with Hamas. The president said he believes Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is “hurting Israel more than helping Israel” in how he is approaching its war against Hamas in Gaza. He told MSNBC that the prime minister “must pay more attention to the innocent lives being lost as a consequence of the actions taken.” At the same time, Mr. Biden expressed support for Israel’s right to pursue Hamas, and that he would not cut off weapons for the Jewish state.
