Biden Warns Israel Against Mistake Of 9/11

POSTED ON October 18, 2023 •   World      BY Segun Adewole •   VIEWS 72
US President Joe Biden has urged Israel not to repeat the mistake made by America during the September 9/11 attack by terrorists. The President's remarks come at a crucial moment when emotions are running high in Israel due to the recent devastating attack by the Hamas terrorist organisation. The need for a measured and thoughtful response is underscored by the lessons learned from America's experience after the September 11 attacks. Biden's reference to the aftermath of 9/11 serves as a reminder that while seeking justice is essential, the process should not be marred by impulsive actions that might lead to unintended consequences. It reflects the United States' own experience, where responses driven by anger resulted in decisions that later raised concerns. Biden also lent his support to Israel's assertion that the explosion at Al Ahli Baptist Hospital in Gaza resulted from a misfired rocket by Hamas. This incident tragically led to the loss of around 500 lives, and Israel's claims have been met with scrutiny and international concern. Immediately after the incident took place, Hamas announced that it was caused by an airstrike by Israel which had been pounding Gaza since it suffered a terrorist attack by Hamas fighters days ago. Israel has now provided evidence to prove that the incident was a result of misfired rocket by Hamas, just as the country promised to supply evidence to the United Nations. The US President's acknowledgement of Israel's stance underscores the importance of a thorough investigation into the incident to determine the facts surrounding the hospital explosion. The conflict in the region continues to be a matter of global concern, and efforts are being made to address both the immediate humanitarian needs and the broader security challenges
