US President Joe Biden made a confessional statement in his “State of the Union” speech at Congress and said, “More than 30 thousand Palestinians were killed in Gaza, most of them were not Hamas members; thousands of innocent women and children were killed.” said.
US President Biden made evaluations about the latest situation in Gaza in his “State of the Union” speech, delivered annually by presidents to the joint session of Congress.
HE DEFENDED ISRAEL AGAIN
In the part of his speech about Gaza, Biden talked about the Hamas attack on October 7 by saying “Israel experienced its bloodiest day after the Holocaust” and argued that “Israel has the right to follow Hamas to the end.”
“MORE 30 THOUSAND PALESTINIANS DIED”
On the other hand, Biden noted that Israel has a responsibility not to target civilians when carrying out its attacks and said, “This war has cost the lives of more innocent civilians than all previous wars in Gaza combined. More than 30 thousand Palestinians were killed and most of them are Hamas members.” “No. Thousands and thousands of women and children were killed, boys and girls were left orphaned.” he said.
“ISRAEL MUST DO ITS PART”
Biden also announced that he instructed the American army to establish a temporary port on the Gaza coast.
Stating that a higher amount of humanitarian aid will enter Gaza by sea through this temporary port, but American soldiers will not set foot in Gaza, Biden said:
“This temporary port will enable large amounts of humanitarian aid to enter Gaza every day, but Israel must also do its part. Israel must allow more humanitarian aid to enter Gaza and make sure that humanitarian workers do not come under fire. I told Israeli leaders this. “Humanitarian aid cannot be a bargaining chip or a secondary issue.”
Biden also stated once again that the only permanent political solution to the Israel-Palestine problem is the two-state solution.
