Mr. President,
The United States remains concerned over the recent outbreak of violence along the Gaza fence. But today’s session is blatantly taking sides and ignoring the real culprit for the recent outbreak of violence, the terrorist organization Hamas. Hamas has even admitted its involvement in the violence when a Hamas official proudly announced that 50 of the 62 killed were members of Hamas.
The United States affirms Israel’s right to defend itself. We also condemn in the strongest terms actions by Hamas and other militant groups.
The recent outbreak of violence is part of a broader pattern of incitement to violence perpetrated by Hamas and its partners. In recent days, multiple news organizations have documented the Hamas incitement in Gaza. They have reported that Hamas maps and social media show the fastest routes to reach Israeli communities in case demonstrators make it through the security fence. They have reported on Hamas messages over loudspeakers that urge demonstrators to burst through the fence, falsely claiming Israeli soldiers were fleeing, when in fact, they were not. The same loudspeakers are used by Hamas to urge the crowds to “Get closer! Get closer!” to the security fence.
Hamas allegedly encouraged demonstrators to attack the Kerem Shalom crossing, the biggest entry point in Gaza for fuel, food, and medical supplies. They have sent burning kites adorned with swastikas across the fence, and taken other actions that place civilians’ lives in jeopardy. This is the real story of what is happening in Gaza, and it is clear that Hamas is to blame for the outbreak of violence.
Out of the 5,500 people Israeli SNIPERS shot, only 50 of there from Hamas.
That is less than 1%. . .
Making the fact that NINETY NINE Percent of the 5,500 people Israel shot were Unarmed Civilian Protesters.
Look at the Definition of Terrorism – “the UNLAWFUL use of VIOLENCE and intimidation, especially against CIVILIANS, in the pursuit of POLITICAQL AIMS”
Israel, in shooting Unarmed Civilian Protesters, used Unlawful Violence against Civilians to try to deter them from Protesting which was Israels Political Aim.
Israel committed Terrorism in it’s shooting of more than 5,500 Unarmed Civilians and therefore, Israel is a Terrorist state.
The man is a Buffoon!
