Republican says Biden has 'strengthened' Hamas by withholding aid from Israel: 'Completely incompetent'
Fox News
Sen. Pete Ricketts, R-NE, said President Biden was 'absolutely mismanaging' Israel's war with Hamas after he threatened to withhold high payload bombs from America's ally.
"I mean, the administration said they had an ironclad friendship with Israel, and now they're demonstrating that it doesn't mean too much," said Ricketts, also a member of the Foreign Relations Committee, during a segment of FOX Report with Jon Scott. "Secretary [Antony] Blinken was talking about how we've got to offer them a better way. A better way, like Afghanistan. How well did that work out? He's looking for a credible plan for protecting civilians, that they wouldn't know a credible plan if it came up and bit them on the behind. These people are completely incompetent and they're absolutely mismanaging this." "The idea that we would cut off military aid to an ally, our only true, true ally in the entire region, is absolutely preposterous. It's just beyond my comprehension that anyone would do that."— Then-presidential candidate Joe Biden in a 2019 PBS interview
The Republican also said the president’s tactic was playing into the hands of terrorists: "Hamas was negotiating to come up with a cease fire to return the hostages. And then Biden announces he's going to withhold weapons. And Hamas is like, well, my hand has just been strengthened. Why would I negotiate now?"
