Biden slams Hamas for using its people as human shields amid ‘worse massacre of Jewish people since Holocaust’

Tags: biden israel gaza

President Biden lambasted Hamas Saturday for carrying out the “worst massacres of the Jewish people since the Holocaust” while putting the lives of its own Palestinian people on the line.

“More than 1,300 innocent lives lost in Israel, including at least 27 Americans. Children and grandparents alike kidnapped, held hostage by Hamas,” the commander in chief said during his speech at the Human Rights Campaign’s annual dinner.

“The humanitarian crisis in Gaza: innocent Palestinian families — and the vast majority have nothing to do with Hamas — they’re being used as human shields.”

Biden has been forceful in his condemnation of the “sheer evil” that Hamas terrorists carried out on Oct. 7, when they launched a multi-front invasion of Israel.

After butchering innocent civilians — including hundreds of babies — the violent group nabbed as many as 150 hostages and dragged them about to the Gaza Strip, which Israel has unrelentingly bombed in an effort to regain its kidnapped people.

Biden told the crowd that he spent an hour Friday talking with the families of the 16 unaccounted Americans who either went missing in Israel or are being held hostage in the Gaza Strip.

The grieving families are suffering from the “agony” of the unknown, he said.

Biden compared their mourning to the moment he found out his first wife Neilia and their daughter Naomi were killed in a 1972 car crash, leaving his sons Beau and Hunter in unknown conditions.

“The uncertainty in those two or three hours trying to get back to find out, it’s the worst feeling in the world it’s gut-wrenching,” the president said before making a swift return to the terrorist-instigated war.

“It’s yet another reminder that hate never goes away. It only hides. It hides under the rocks.”

“A week ago we saw hate manifested in the worst massacres of the Jewish people since the Holocaust.”

Biden’s speech largely focused on LGBTQ+ issues, especially transgender rights, which have become a major discussion point in 2024 presidential campaign debates and campaigns.

The Democratic incumbent reiterated his promise to protect LGBTQ+ and touted the legislation his administration worked to pass, including discarding the “outdated” policy banning gay and bisexual men from donating blood.

“This is the United States of America! And the extreme MAGA Republicans trying to undo virtually every bit of progress we’ve made,” Biden said before listing off several policies GOP leaders have been pushing, such as banning pride flags from flying on public land.

“Who the hell –?” Biden started before stopping himself, noting that the curse “wasn’t very presidential.”
