Washington: Former US President Barack Obama has warned once morest Israel continuing its war once morest Hamas in Gaza. Obama warns that some of Israel’s actions in the war once morest Hamas will backfire. Obama also said that the measures to cut off food and water to Gaza would weaken international support for the country.
The Israeli government’s decision to cut off food, water and electricity to the people of Gaza will worsen the current crisis. Global support for Israel will be lost. Obama pointed out that this might be used by Israel’s enemies and that such actions would backfire on efforts to maintain peace in the region.
After the September attacks, the high values that the US held on war-related issues were lost. Condemning the attacks by Hamas, Obama also supported Israel’s right to defend itself. During his tenure as US President, Obama supported Israel in its conflict with Hamas. However, with the situation of Palestinians being killed in airstrikes, the country was asked to exercise restraint.
More than 5,000 Palestinians were killed in Israel’s attack on Gaza in response to Hamas’ lightning attack.
Joe Biden was Vice President when Obama was President. It is unclear whether Obama’s current statement was in consultation with Biden. Obama tried to broker a peace deal in the Israeli-Palestinian conflict but failed. Biden did not even attempt to continue this discussion.
