Trump: Harris ’caused’ October 7 assault, Iran was broke prior to Biden’s presidency

Former president Donald Trump accuses Vice President Kamala Harris of causing the October 7 Hamas terror assault on southern Israel, in posts shared on his social media platform, Truth Social.

“SHE HATES ISRAEL,” the Republican presidential nominee writes in a string of posts reacting to Harris’s speech at the Democratic National Convention. “Wouldn’t even show up to Congress for [Prime Minister Benjamin] Netanyahu’s session!”

Harris held a private meeting with Netanyahu during his July trip to Washington DC, but was speaking at a campaign event on the day of his speech to a joint session of Congress.

“She caused the Attack of October 7th,” Trump writes in a second post, appearing to react to Harris’s speech at the DNC, in which she said the horrors of October 7 must never happen again.

“Iran was BROKE – Didn’t have money for Hezbollah,” Trump adds.

The October 7 assault was carried out by Hamas-led terrorists from the Gaza Strip. Hezbollah began carrying out cross-border attacks in support of Hamas on October 8.

He then shares a video touting his merits, declaring that during his presidency from 2016 to 2020, he had “played hardball with Iran, destroyed ISIS, kept the Middle East at peace, kept [the US] out of wars through strength.”

He further criticizes Harris, claiming that she will “take us into a Nuclear World War III!”
