On Monday, several aid workers with the World Central Kitchen were killed in Gaza, by Israeli strikes. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu called the event a 'tragic case of our forces unintentionally hitting innocent people.' The outrage was swift and directed at Israel, who is investigating the strike.
President Biden, who is feeling the heat over his support of Israel in the ongoing war with Hamas, issued a lengthy statement condemning the tragedy.
I am outraged and heartbroken by the deaths of seven humanitarian workers from World Central Kitchen, including one American, in Gaza yesterday.

Incidents like yesterday’s simply should not happen.

Guy Benson noticed something very interesting, though.
Context: When news broke that the US had accidentally droned an innocent family to death in Kabul, amid the deadly chaos of Biden’s Afghanistan abandonment, the president went to the beach for the weekend — leaving military officials to make the announcement & deal with the… https://t.co/T5VOuQ3MNT

Compare and contrast.

But he did arrest one of their fathers.
Biden couldn’t care less. This is all election year theatrics for his friends in MI and MN.

Yes, it is.
The hypocrisy is astonishing.

Astonishing, but not surprising. At all.
After praising the attack for a few days or a week. Even after everyone knew they killed an innocent family.

We remember this, too,
How often has Biden mentioned 5 Americans still held by Hamas?
— Kyle Beckley (@Kyle_Beckley) April 3, 2024
He may have, but I don't remember it
Neither do we.
Well see there were no Jews to blame, and therefore no votes to be gained on the left-wing fringe, by taking accountability for the actions in Afghanistan. https://t.co/rjaKuuS1gm

Nailed it.
The contrast is ugly. https://t.co/jtYrOx61Ah

It's (D)ifferent when they do it.
Fallout?
— Safing Sector (@Gplavallee72) April 3, 2024
There was no fallout.
The media covered for him, as usual. https://t.co/f5VY2NuQWR
As usual.
That’s some potent context right there. https://t.co/mSwhyv2ygP

Very potent.
It called selective outrage… https://t.co/eqiZknuXjt

Yes, and the Left are masters of it.
