Many Americans have reportedly been killed in the Hamas attack on Israel…reports Asian Lite News
President Joe Biden is being blasted after he apparently held a barbecue for his staff at the White House amid the Hamas attack on Israel. A pool reporter claimed he heard a band playing from the White House lawn while pro-Palestine protesters chanted ‘Free Palestine’ at the gates.
According to the Daily Mail, when the reporter questioned what the sound was, a spokesperson said, “The President and First Lady are hosting a BBQ for White House Executive Residence staff and their families.” Biden has not made any public statement on the attack.
Many Americans have reportedly been killed in the Hamas attack on Israel. Secretary of State Antony Blinken has confirmed that the US was “working overtime” to verify reports of dead and missing Americans. The ones who escaped unharmed are now trying to find a way out of Israel. Passengers have flocked Tel Aviv’s Ben Gurion Airport, trying to flee.
An Israeli official has also confirmed that Americans are among the “scores” of hostages Hamas militants are holding in Gaza, according to Forbes. During the attack, Hamas’ militants infiltrated Israeli towns and launched missiles, reportedly resulting in the death of hundreds of people. In a televised address, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu called the attack “murderous.”
Biden allegedly holding a barbeque drew flak online, with one user writing on X, “While countless Americans are being held hostage in Gaza, with attacks on civilians in Israel ongoing, President Biden is hosting a BBQ.”
Many commented on the post, with one user saying, “Any leader as removed from the reality of the past few days, has no business being in charge of America’s business.” “Biden has no moral compass,” one user said, while another wrote, “My sister’s birthday is tomorrow. About 15 of us were going to get together to celebrate. A unanimous decision was made to postpone the dinner to a later date. No one was in the mood to party.”
