Trump makes fun of Gaza genocide by calling Biden "a bad Palestinian"

In a controversial statement, Republican candidate Donald Trump mocked the humanitarian crisis in Gaza during a presidential debate held in Atlanta, Georgia. 

The insensitive remarks came in response to a question about Israel's war on Gaza and alleged American hostages.

“[Biden] said the only one who wants to keep [fighting the war] is Hamas, actually Israel is the one. And you should let them go and finish the job,” Trump said.

“[Biden] doesn’t want to do it, he’s become like a Palestinian. But they don’t like him because he’s a very bad Palestinian, he’s a weak one,” he added.

The US has consistently supported Israel and provided them $3.3 billion in annual security aid and additional military assistance during the ongoing war crimes.

The US government has also denied allegations of genocide in Gaza despite evidence of widespread civilian casualties and human rights abuses.

Israel has been bombing Gaza since October 7 last year, resulting in the deaths of at least 37,626 people and injuring 86,098 others.

The situation remains dire, with reports of extreme brutality, displacement, and humanitarian crises in the enclave.

UNRWA's Commissioner-General Philippe Lazzarini said that almost 10 children are losing one or both legs in Gaza every day.

The World Health Organisation has reported that thousands of Palestinian children in Gaza have been diagnosed with malnutrition.

The international community has condemned Israel's actions in Gaza, with many calling for an end to the violence.

On the other hand, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has rejected a permanent end to the military assault on the coastal enclave.

“It (ceasefire) doesn’t mean that the war is about to end, but the war in its intense phase is about to end in Rafah,” he said while talking to a local news channel.
