Biden Warns Israelis Not To Repeat The Mistakes The U.S. Made After 9/11

Huff Post  

LOADING ERROR LOADING In a speech in Israel, President Joe Biden urged Israelis not to repeat the mistakes the United States made following the 9/11 attacks in Israel’s own response to the Hamas attacks that have reportedly left at least 1,400 Israelis dead since Oct. 7. While we sought justice and got justice, we also made mistakes.” This warning comes after weeks of analogies comparing the deadliest single-day attacks on both the United States and Israel, with Israel’s ambassador to the U.S., Michael Herzog, calling the Hamas attack “our 9/11.” The implication of this analogy is that the U.S. was both just and right in its response to the Sept. 11, 2001, terrorist attacks, and was thus granted wide latitude and international support in its response — and, therefore, that Israel deserves the same for its unprecedented bombing campaign in the Gaza Strip, which has a population of over 2 million. President Joe Biden warned Israel not to repeat the mistakes the U.S. made following the Sept. 11, 2001, terror attacks during a solidarity visit to Israel on Oct. 18, 2023. In his speech on Wednesday, Biden said that U.S. intelligence shows the strike was “done by the other team.” Palestinians claim that the strike was the result of an attack by Israel.
