President Biden highlighted the distinction between Palestinian citizens and their Hamas leaders on Sunday, saying most Palestinians had “nothing to do” with the October 7 attack on Israel.
“We must not lose sight of the fact that the overwhelming majority of Palestinians had nothing to do with Hamas’s appalling attacks, and are suffering as a result of them,” he wrote.
The statement comes as an Israeli ground invasion of Northern Gaza appears imminent. The U.S. has supplies support to Israel via delivering weapons and ammunition, but no U.S. troops will participate in the operation.
Secretary of State Tony Blinken will reportedly arrive in Israel for a second trip in as many weeks on Monday.

Didn’t they elect the Hamas to be their government? They did so overwhelmingly!
They didn’t have any direct involvement but polling of Arabs in the middle East showed overwhelming support of the actions of Hamas. No Arab leader has come out & condemned the actions of Hamas. The few who criticized, equivicated it with the behavior of the Israeli government towards Palestinians.
And so it begins…
Tomorrow, Joey will say that “Israel should be careful not to punish the innocent civilians in Gaza for the sins of Hamas.”
Israel needs to act very quickly, before they lose whatever support they have in world opinion.
This is not simply a sign of Biden’s senility; he was telling lies of similar enormity even when he had his full faculties, such as they ever were.
They “just” rejoice and celebrate the barbarism.
Right… And that’s why they partied? They celebrated those who took part and were their emissaries Hashem Yerachem!
But did they celebrate it?
Did they teach their children to follow the example?
The overwhelming number of people in any war have nothing to do with it. Look at Russia Ukraine war. Do the people have anything to do with the war? No! It’s Vladimir that is the sole instigator but somehow everyone gets dragged into it. Yes, I’m sure the Russian and Ukrainians are very careful when bombing each other… They never kill civilians or children.
So it has already started, now the media will start showing dead Palestinian civilians, and the moral equivalency arguments will commence. Thank you Mr Biden for your five minutes of ardent support. It’s over now, and everyone can now begin bashing Israel. Even I, the world’s biggest cynic, am surprised. I thought it would take about a week or two for the embers to cool, but moron Biden couldn’t last a week
invite him herd and put him in a SHELTER, as close to the Gaza Strip as possible, when you get a catholic president with all his kids marrying into the Jewish Faith what do you get THIS FORM OF NONSENSE….Biden, you are the BEIT DIN you are E. V. I . L.
Except they voted for them
They made them leaders knowing their sole purpose to existence is to wipe out the Jews
The overwhelming number of Japanese had nothing to do with Pearl Harbor.
The overwhelming number of Iraqis has nothing to do with the 9/11 attack.
It’s called war.
I’m sure they were very happy about it! I didn’t notice any protests coming from that direction!
note to biden: hamas is the de facto ruler of gaza, and the largest employer. and at the last election, gazans voted overwhelmingly for hamas. since hamas has twice the approval rating that you have, what does that say about involvement in your policies?
Did they people of Aza not vote Hamas into office? Maybe I am wrong, but I happened to recall something like that.
Not sure what “overwhelming majority” means, but plenty did have:
Many joined the massacre following the armed terrorists
Plenty celebrated the murders if innocent Jews
Loads of the cheered the parading of the hostages
Hamas couldn’t operate without the support of the locals
If you vote Democrat, you vote for Hamas.
How does he know?
Oh, they might have not been physically involved in the attacks.
But, boy, how they sure loved the candies distributed ,and the humiliating parade of hostages paraded by the other Gazans.
Why do they let armaments be stored under their children’s beds?
Or why do they let their children go to UNWRA schools?
Sure, they are all innocent of the crimes.
Did he ever hear of “aiding and abetting?”
And, forget it, those who perpetuate such serious crimes against humanity are not afforded the protection of international law.
They follow the law of the barbarians and deserve to be treated as such.

Anyone recognizes this language? Google translate seems baffled.
Uh huh. Now we won’t blame everyone but when it comes to Trump supporters, everyone is to blame for everything.
I don’t know who is running Bidens twitter (he’s not directly posting or running it), but I guess that is true. If 2000 people attached, and there are a lot of people in Gaza, the math checks out. A majority of people didn’t directly attack that day.
Now that the math was verified, the next question is, why make such a stupid point?!
