A White House spokesperson later clarified that the president had based his comments on claims from Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s spokesman
President Joe Biden addressed a roundtable of Jewish community leaders at the White House on Wednesday, calling the Hamas attack “the deadliest day for Jews since the Holocaust” and confirming reports of “terrorists beheading children.”
The president called the attack an act of “sheer evil,” and emphasized his administration’s support for Israel amid its war with Hamas.
“Women, children, toddlers, and elderly were brutally butchered in an ISIS way of action and we are we are [sic] aware of the heinous acts Hamas is capable of,” the spokesperson wrote in response to questions from the outlet.
Family members of U.S. citizens believed to be taken hostage during Hamas‘ Israel incursion this past weekend have expressed frustration over the U.S. government’s recovery efforts.
Relatives of missing persons with dual U.S.-Israeli citizenship begged the Biden administration and Israeli government to do more to negotiate the releases of their loved ones.
“It’s a war, so we realize that there are a number of things that are important on a national level,” Jonathan Polin — whose 23-year-old son Hersh Goldberg-Polin disappeared after attending a music festival near Gaza that Hamas attacked — told the Los Angeles Times.
