“The US adoption of the Israeli narrative makes it culpable in the Gaza massacres,” says Hamas in a statement, calling the US a “direct partner with the [Israeli] occupation leaders.”
“Washington is blindly biased toward the Israeli occupation,” the terror group stresses, referring to US President Joe Biden’s assertion that yesterday’s Gaza hospital blast appeared to have been caused by an Islamic Jihad rocket, and not by an IDF airstrike, as Hamas claims.
