Biden annoys Papua New Guinea's locals with his 'cannibal' claims about them

  Monica Showalter - American Thinker

Why he would do this, pointlessly alienating an important nation that America needs as a friend and one that has never done anything bad to us at all, is really disgusting. It shows what a hash Joe Biden has made of foreign policy and just how cartoonish his knowledge of foreign affairs really is.

"There he goes again.

Joe Biden, once billed as a foreign policy genius, has gone and alienated another country, upsetting the Papua New Guinea residents with his phony claim that his Uncle Bosie, who died in World War II, was eaten by cannibals on one of their islands, which he wasn't.

The mainstream media isn't saying anything, but the British press is paying attention:

According to the Daily Mail:

Outraged Papua New Guinea academics have slammed President Joe Biden for his 'unacceptable' suggestion that his uncle was eaten by cannibals in the country after his plane was shot down during World War II.

Biden implied on two occasions Wednesday that his maternal uncle 2nd Lieutenant Ambrose J. Finnegan had met a grisly end at the hands of cannibals after his plane was shot down by the enemy over New Guinea in 1944. 

But the White House and official defense records confirmed that Finnegan died when the military plane he was in experienced engine failure and crashed into the Pacific Ocean, not over land.

Historically, cannibalism has been reported Papua New Guinea, the Pacific nation that occupies the eastern half of the island of New Guinea, but local academics say Biden's categorization of the act is 'very offensive'. . . .

The cannibals should sue Biden for defamation - Silvio Canto, Jr. 

Indeed, we sit back and listen to every word because it's likely another story that he made up. Of course, the real problem here is not the storyteller-in-chief but rather the media that lets him get away with it.

'And he became an Army Air Corps before the Air Force came along. He flew those single engine planes as reconnaissance over war zones. 'And he got shot down near Guinea and they never found the body because there used to be, there were a lot of cannibals for real, in that part of New Guinea.'

Then Biden and Karinne diverted back to the "suckers and losers" bromide that should work well with the MSNBC crowd. TD
