President Biden told reporters Wednesday that Palestinian terrorists have “gotta learn how to shoot straight” — one day after an explosion outside a hospital in the Gaza Strip.

“I’m not suggesting that Hamas deliberately did it,” the president said at Ramstein Air Base in Germany en route back to Washington after visiting Israel earlier in the day.

“It’s that old thing: Gotta learn how to shoot straight,” Biden went on.

“It’s not the first time that Hamas has launched something that didn’t function very well.”

wow, this fucking sucks Joe

    What a fucking demonic thing to say.

    Even if, even if it was a Hamas misfire, 500 innocent lives were taken, and this fucking demon is making a joke about it

    500 lives have been snuffed out. Untold thousands will never be the same because they’re gone. And this monster can’t help but laugh, because those lives were brown, and brown lives don’t count.

    Actual demonic behaviour

      That is the thing, they are not only denying that they did it, they’re denying that it even happened. Or at least, it wasn’t catastrophic. It’s one thing to disagree with who bombed a hospital, but the fact that people can’t agree on whether or not a hospital was bombed is wild to me, in the age of live video. Now I’m particular to thinking the hospital was bombed and Israel did it, but honestly what the fuck do I know? People seem confident here, but personally this fog of war bullshit is the most unsettling thing I’ve experienced in a while. Same as the early days of Ukraine

        Remember when Hong Kong was winning over China and doing extremely well in a fight for independence?

        I asked some people actually FROM HONG KONG and they said it’s all bullshit and no one even wanted to fight there.

        That was the moment I lost my trust in Western reporting…

          Yeah I took a hardline stance of “any western media reporting on Hong Kong is lying by default and I must investigate” when I saw that video of the middle-aged guy calmly talking to the protestors and they surprised him from behind by dumping gas on him and lighting him on fire.

          If somebody did that to an American or a cop on video, the police would be dropping bombs from helicopters on houses they suspect hide protestors

      What else could one expect from the segregationist who was Strom Thurmond’s best buddy?
