WATCH: Joe Biden ‘playing’ into ‘strategy of Hamas’

President Joe Biden said he's "outraged and heartbroken by the deaths" of aid workers in Gaza who were mistakenly killed by Israeli's military as they were providing food for civilians in the middle of the war-torn land.

Biden’s White House must stop hindering Israel

On the war against Hamas, Israel has been steadfast: The terrorists must die. President Biden, meanwhile, has been all over the map. And this back-and-forth, frenetic and unclear messaging from the White House is having the disastrous effect of emboldening Israel's enemies -- and it must stop now.

Bold & Blunt video: Is America abandoning Israel?

The United States did a "no-vote" on the United Nations' resolution calling for an immediate ceasefire by Israel against Hamas, in exchange for the release of hostages.
