Biden says he spoke with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu amid the dayslong outbreak of violence that has killed dozens.

Yet he says not one word condemning hamas.
Here we go again. “Israel has the right to defend itself…but, it must use proportionate force and NOBODY in Gaza is allowed to die in the process!”
What! It’s Fake News! Everybody knows that Biden is just a puppet for Harris, AOC, and Sanders, right? Right?
Or maybe not.
