Trump: 'This Would Never Have Happened with Me,' Blames 'Weak' Biden for Hamas Attack on Israel
Former President Donald Trump has pointed fingers at President Joe Biden, accusing him of being "weak" and attributing the recent Hamas attack on Israel to his perceived weakness.
During a rally in Waterloo, Iowa, Trump remarked, "It was a big attack with a lot of dead people all over the place. Who would think that? And the only difference, I believe, is the difference between one president and another president."
The Hamas militants infiltrated Israeli towns and launched missiles, resulting in the reported deaths of at least 250 people in Israel and 232 in Gaza. In response, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu condemned the attack as "murderous."
Trump claimed that if he were still in office, such conflicts wouldn't have occurred. He said, "They didn't have that level of aggression with me. This would have never happened to me. You know what wouldn't have happened? Ukraine wouldn't have happened. Taiwan and all this tough talk with Taiwan wouldn't have happened."
He further argued that the attack on Israel happened due to the perception of weakness and ineffectiveness under Biden's leadership.
Trump's son also commented on what he saw as American weakness, expressing concern about the future consequences. He stated, "As we perpetually indoctrinate our children with weakness, feminize our boys, attack masculine men, glorify trans insanity, etc., just understand that one day the savages you see brutally attacking innocent civilians in the streets of Israel will be on your front door, and you and your loved ones will have ZERO capability of defending themselves. That's the future the left is creating for you."

Vivek Ramaswamy, another prominent figure, weighed in on the situation, sharing a post that highlighted concerns about the Biden administration's aid to Palestine potentially benefiting Hamas. Ramaswamy wrote, "America's broken foreign policy establishment knew they were funding Hamas & went ahead with it anyway. The unprecedented $6BN in ransom paid to Iran last month worsened it: our taxpayer dollars are funding Iran, Hamas, and Hezbollah. This will end on Day 1 of my administration."

In a separate post, he expressed his outrage at the Hamas attacks and emphasized Israel's right to exist and defend itself. Ramaswamy concluded by stating that the U.S. should stand with Israel in this challenging time."
I am appalled by the barbaric and medieval Hamas attacks. Shooting civilians and kidnapping children are war crimes. Israel’s right to exist & defend itself should never be doubted and Iran-backed Hamas & Hezbollah cannot be allowed to prevail. I stand with Israel and the U.S.…
