Joe Biden is pushing pro-Hamas propaganda tonight in his latest statement about the Palestinians and Hamas. In a tweet tonight, Biden claimed that the Palestinians are not Hamas and that Hamas doesn’t represent them:
I won't mince words.
The overwhelming majority of Palestinians are not Hamas. And Hamas does not represent the Palestinian people.
In fact, they're also suffering as a result of Hamas' terrorism. We need to be clear-eyed about that reality.

This is obviously Biden’s way of putting public pressure on Israel regarding Rafah, the last stand for Hamas. Biden doesn’t want Israel to enter Rafah because so many Palestinians are living there now, but that plays right into the hands of Hamas.
Furthermore, this is completely untrue. As Marina Medvin points out…
After October 7, over 75% of Palestinians polled said they support Hamas and the October 7 attack on Israel.
Two months into the war, 72% of Palestinians said they still support the Hamas attacks on Israel on October 7.https://t.co/ow1w3Aa0dU https://t.co/10RbRP15Jc

Here’s a few other responses:
I won’t mince words either.
Palestinians elected Hamas. And Hamas would win new elections, which is why Biden doesn’t call for elections.
Instead of denying this reality, Biden should back Israel to the hilt in its righteous war to destroy Hamas. https://t.co/1AKOo3TZ6b

The overwhelming majority of Palestinians are not the government they elected.

This is a lie. The overwhelming majority of Palestinians support the 10/7 massacre, support terrorism and hostage-taking, and support Hamas. This appalling dishonesty is an insult to every victim of Palestinian terrorism, which includes hundreds of Americans. https://t.co/jLqlyoCC2O
