President Biden spoke with Palestinian Authority President Abbas. President Biden condemned Hamas’ brutal attack on Israel and reiterated that Hamas does not stand for the Palestinian people’s right to dignity and self-determination.
President Abbas briefed President Biden on his engagement in the region and his efforts to bring urgently needed humanitarian assistance to Palestinian people, particularly in Gaza.
President Biden offered President Abbas and the Palestinian Authority his full support for these important and ongoing efforts.
President Biden discussed with President Abbas U.S. efforts to work with the United Nations, Egypt, Jordan, Israel and others to ensure humanitarian supplies reach civilians in Gaza.
Finally, President Biden detailed U.S. efforts to coordinate with partners to prevent the conflict from widening, and the two leaders discussed the need to preserve stability in the West Bank and the broader region.
“President Biden condemned Hamas’ brutal attack on Israel and reiterated that Hamas does not stand for the Palestinian people’s right to dignity and self-determination.” Where the fuck has Biden done for the Palestinians? Nothing. Now Biden has given the Israelis the greenlight to slaughter them wholesale.
Nice. Where are those notes from Trump/Putin in Helsinki?
President Biden is handling this about as well as I thought he could. Condemn Hamas but still understand that the actions of Hamas do not and should not represent the Palestinian people. Biden should get more credit on this issue than I believe he is.
Awful… nothing about stopping the genocide.
Nothing about the [increased settler violence in the West Bank](https://theintercept.com/2023/10/13/israel-settlers-gaza-palestinians-west-bank/). Several Palestinian villages have been evicted. 51 Palestinians dead, 0 Israelis afaik. Israel immediately restricted movement in the occupied West Bank, but there is no evidence that anyone in the WB was in on the attack. Unrest only started in cities when Israel restricted movement.
Mahmoud Abbas is still around ? Haven’t heard his name for years. He’s like Yassir Arafat, Don King, and Al Sharpton. They linger for yeard for airtime even though everyone knows they are no longer influential and are just clowns.
