President Joe Biden has been against a ceasefire in the Israel-Hamas war.
But now Biden said there needs to be a pause to transport humanitarian aid and provide a safe crossing for those trapped in Gaza after a progressive rabbi from Jewish Voice for Peace demanded a ceasefire.
Of course, a JVP member is at the center of this:
“I think we need a pause,” Biden began. “A pause means give time to get the prisoners out.”In his comments, Biden was exerting pressure on Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to give Palestinians a brief reprieve from Israel’s retaliatory military operation. He also said he convinced both Netanyahu and Egyptian President Abdel Fattah el-Sisi to allow aid into Gaza.Biden later said that he understood the “emotion” over the war and said it is “incredibly complicated for Israelis.””It’s incredibly complicated for the Muslim world as well… I supported a two state solution, I have from the very beginning,” he continued. “The fact is the matter is that Hamas is a terrorist organization. A flat-out terrorist organization.”Biden’s call was a subtle departure for the president and top White House aides, who throughout the Mideast crisis have been steadfast in stating they will not dictate how the Israelis carry out their military operations in response to the Oct. 7 attack by Hamas.
The heckler is “Rabbi” Jessica Rosenberg. You all know that “Jewish Voice for Peace” is a rabid anti-Israel group that supports BDS. Even the ADL cannot stand JVP:
According to various biographies of Rosenberg, she currently resides in south Minneapolis, Minnesota, having been raised in Philadelphia. She is a rabbi with the progressive reconstructionist Jewish movement and became ordained in 2018.Rosenberg has been described as a member of the LGBTQ+ community, and in 2020 wrote a handbook on “trauma, healing and resistance” for Jewish leaders and activists.
