Biden visits the world

 Biden in Israel: Bad Comments, Zoning Out, and Confusing Wars – RedState

. . ."Biden was also having to field questions about the Gaza hospital explosion. As we reported, now in the light of day, there was more evidence showing it wasn't Israel and questions about the number of people claimed killed.  Meanwhile, the media immediately spread a lot of misinformation based on Hamas' claims, without checking on the facts. 

"But when Biden made some perfunctory comments about that, he had issues. He tried to tell a story about something that Secretary of State Antony Blinken had written for him in the past, but he blanked out right in the middle of the sentence and embarrassingly couldn't remember what he was trying to say. He then said that the evidence indicated it was the "other team." As he said that, he was reading from notes, even for such a short comment and he still had problems. 

"You can see the reading of the notes more clearly in this video." 

 Does the World Really Need To See Joe Biden in Israel Today?    "There used to be an old saying and rule in the American body politic, that criticism of the United States President ended at the nation's shores whenever he left the country to go on an overseas trip.

"That policy, of course, pretty much ended during the Reagan Administration (Republican of course), seeing as he pushed for and instituted policies that successfully defeated the Soviet Union (or what he correctly called the "Evil Empire"). Reagan won the Cold War without firing a shot and the policy of criticizing a President died along with the evil empire he helped defeat." . . .


. . ."This was a targeted disinformation campaign that ran its way around the globe, parroted by the largest news outlets, causing violence in multiple countries. That violence is still ongoing, with Western embassies and consulates under attack in Lebanon, Turkey, and Jordan, among others. 

"It was all based on a lie told by a terrorist organization. This wasn't a small fudging of the situation either. Hamas completely made up a story about a hospital being leveled by an IAF bombing. The press reported it uncritically for hours, with some claiming people were being "pulled from the rubble." They then made up a story about 500 people being dead. The press also repeated those numbers with zero verification. 

"Where is the accountability? Who is going to lose their job over this? Will there be apologies issued from these news organizations that claim the utmost credibility? Don't hold your breath, but let this be another lesson that you should never blindly believe the mainstream press, especially when there are tell-tale signs that things aren't adding up."
