President Biden said that if Israel invaded Rafah, the last major Hamas holdout in southern Gaza, it would cross a “red line” that threatened US aid.
In March, President Biden said that if Israel invaded Rafah, the last major Hamas holdout in southern Gaza, it would cross a “red line” that threatened US aid.
Asked about his statement shortly after, Vice President Kamala Harris added to ABC News, “We have been clear in multiple conversations and in every way that any major military operation in Rafah would be a huge mistake . . . And so we’ve been very clear that it would be a mistake to move into Rafah with any type of military operation.”
Now we know the tragic cost of the Harris-Biden administration’s dithering: Six dead hostages, including one Israeli-American.
Some families of the dead are blaming this loss on Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu for failing to secure a cease-fire, and no one can question their sorrow or resolve.
