President Joe Biden expressed his belief that Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's strategy for their war is 'hurting Israel more than helping.'
Specifically, the U.S. president said in an MSNBC interview that aired on Saturday that “he must pay more attention to the innocent lives being lost as a consequence of the actions taken.”health ministry has said the death toll since Oct. 7 is more than 30,000, though that does not differentiate between civilians and combatants. Tens of thousands more have been injured, while an overwhelming majority of the Gaza population has been internally displaced.
“It’s contrary to what Israel stands for,” he said of the death toll. “And I think it’s a big mistake.” “It is a red line,” he said, when asked about Rafah, “but I’m never going to leave Israel. The defense of Israel is still critical, so there’s no red line I’m going to cut off all weapons so they don’t have the Iron Dome to protect them.”
