In a powerful and heartfelt address from the State Dining Room, President Biden today condemned the recent terrorist attacks in Israel, labeling them as “pure, unadulterated evil.” The President expressed his deep sorrow for the tragic loss of over 1,000 lives, including at least 14 American citizens, in this senseless act of violence.
The President described the brutality of these attacks, including the use of civilians as human shields and the horrific targeting of innocent people. He likened the bloodthirstiness of Hamas to some of the worst actions of terrorist organizations like ISIS, emphasizing that there is no justification for such violence.
President Biden also reaffirmed the unwavering support of the United States for Israel, stating, “We stand with Israel, and we will make sure Israel has what it needs to take care of its citizens, defend itself, and respond to this attack.” He underscored that the United States upholds the rule of law and that democracies like Israel and the U.S. are stronger when they act in accordance with these principles.
Furthermore, President Biden revealed that American citizens are among those held by Hamas and pledged to provide intelligence and assistance for hostage recovery efforts. He announced the enhancement of U.S. military force posture in the region and made it clear that any attempts to take advantage of the situation would be met with a swift response.
The President emphasized that this is a moment for the United States to come together, denouncing hate and terrorism while expressing solidarity with the Jewish and Muslim communities. He reminded the world of the historical bond between the United States and Israel, vowing to continue supporting Israel’s security.
In this dark moment, the message is clear: The United States stands firmly with Israel and condemns terrorism in the strongest terms. The international community watches closely as leaders work together to bring an end to this tragic situation.
