    Yes? We all know this and have since the first day.

    Why bring this back up a month later, has something changed or is he simply pushing for an emotional response to a complicated situation?

    Is this simply another hollow justification for Israel’s crimes against humanity?

      has something changed

      It’s been independently verified, so yes. It’s not just repeating old news, it’s backing up what was initially hearsay. The US don’t announce it until now as it’s been confirmed.

      Are you implying that restating newly confirmed facts is biased in favor Israel??

      Also, Biden has personally played a big role in the Hamas / Israel talks and getting cease fires and such agreed upon. It’s not like he’s randomly attacking Israeli enemies. We had Americans there so it is further relevant to Biden and the country.

      Obligatory fuck the IDF

      I think it has more to do with a surprising number of people still denying that it happened despite even more testimony coming out.

        Is there any evidence besides people saying something?

        That would shut the deniers up fast!

        Edit: no evidence :(

      Returned hostages have had time to be debriefed and interviewed now, so their experiences are getting a news cycle.
