Recall the statements made by the evil beast woman, Madeleine Albright, in a 1996 interview with “60 Minutes” correspondent Lesley Stahl, who asked if the deaths of 500,000 Iraqi children from the sanctions against Iraq was worth the price? “I think that is a very hard choice,” the then U.S. ambassador to the United Nations said, “but the price, we think, the price is worth it.” Now, consider President Joe Biden’s statements on Oct. 25 during a press conference with Australian Prime Minister Anthony Albanese, when asked about the statistics of more than 7,000 dead, of whom 2,913 were children, reported by the Gaza Health Ministry.
Channeling Albright, Biden replied “what they say to me is I have no notion that the Palestinians are telling the truth about how many people are killed. I’m sure innocents have been killed, and it’s the price of waging a war. I think we should be incredibly careful. I think—well, not ‘we’—the Israelis should be incredibly careful to be sure that they’re focusing on going after the folks that are propagating this war against Israel. And it’s against their interest when that doesn’t happen. But I have no confidence in the number that the Palestinians are using.”
Biden began his press conference focusing on the crimes of Hamas, on Israel’s right to “self-defense,” tossing in obligatory remarks about protecting civilians, as an afterthought.
