US President Joe Biden said he was “devastated and outraged” by the deaths of the hostages, in particular that of dual Israeli-US citizen Goldberg-Polin, whose parents, Jon and Rachel, he and other Americans had kept in their prayers.
“I have worked tirelessly to bring their beloved Hersh safely to them and am heartbroken by the news of his death,” Biden said.
“It is as tragic as it is reprehensible. Make no mistake, Hamas leaders will pay for these crimes. And we will keep working around the clock for a deal to secure the release of the remaining hostages,” he said.
Other than lip service, America never shows any interest in helping American hostages held by Arabs. If they truly cared, there would be an entire battalion of American soldiers in Gaza right now tearing the place apart.
ReplyDeleteWow! So you only care if you declare open warfare?! When and where was this ever normative practice?
