FM Katz: Israel to keep fighting until Hamas eliminated; Ben Gvir: Hamas loves Biden
Foreign Minister Israel Katz writes on X that “Israel will continue to fight Hamas until its destruction” after US President Joe Biden’s threat to withhold arms in the event of a full-on Rafah incursion.
“There is no war more just than this,” Katz adds.
Far-right National Security Minister Itamar Ben Gvir simply tweets: “Hamas loves Biden.”
Hamas ❤️Biden
