Joe Biden called for a massive new aid package for Israel and Ukraine, linking the wars in both countries to American security, while denouncing a rise in anti-semitism and Islamophobia in the U.S. “American leadership is what holds the world together,” Biden said. “American alliances are what keep us, America, safe.
American values are what make us a partner that other nations want to work with. To put all that at risk if we walk away from Ukraine, if we turn our backs on Israel, it is just not worth it.” A purpose of the speech was to show why the Israel-Hamas war and Ukraine-Russia conflict matters to the American public.
He said that support for both countries will be a “smart investment that’s going to pay dividends for American security for generations, help us keep American troops out of harm’s way, help us build a world that is safer, more peaceful, more prosperous for our children and grandchildren.” Biden also said with certainty that the bombing of a hospital in Gaza earlier this week “was not done by the Israelis.” The New York Times and other news outlets first reported the claim, from the Gaza health ministry, that the blast was from an Israeli air strike.
