President Biden Condemns Hamas Attacks on Israel
(White House) President Joe Biden said Saturday: "Today, the people of Israel are under attack, orchestrated by a terrorist organization, Hamas. In this moment of tragedy, I want to say to them and to the world and to terrorists everywhere that the United States stands with Israel." "Hamas terrorists crossing into Israel killing not only Israeli soldiers, but Israeli civilians in the street, in their homes. Innocent people murdered, wounded, entire families taken hostage by Hamas....It's unconscionable." "The United States stands with the people of Israel in the face of this terrorist assault. Israel has the right to defend itself and its people. Full stop....This is not a moment for any party hostile to Israel to exploit these attacks to seek advantage. The world is watching."
