Biden to reassure US Jewish leaders after Israel attack
President Joe Biden reaffirmed his “unshakeable” support for Israel after the surprise attack by Hamas as he prepared to address US Jewish community leaders on Wednesday.
Biden said he had spoken to Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu for a fourth time since Saturday’s assault by the Palestinian militant group, which has triggered a bloody war with Israel.
“This attack has brought to the surface painful memories and scars left by a millennium of anti-Semitism and genocide against the Jewish people,” Biden said during an earlier public event at the White House on Wednesday.
“My commitment to Israel’s security and the safety of the Jewish people is unshakeable. The United States has Israel’s back.”
