Biden Says Attack On Israel Brought To Surface 'Painful Memories And Scars' Left By Antisemitism: 'Terrorists Will Not Win. Freedom Will Win'

President Joe Biden took to Twitter on Wednesday to decry the devastating assault on Israel on October 7, which he labeled as the deadliest day for the Jewish community since the Holocaust.

What Happened: The president declared that terrorists will not prevail and freedom will ultimately win in a post on X, formerly known as Twitter.

The assault, orchestrated by the militant group Hamas, led to intense clashes, catching Israel off guard during Sukkot, a significant Jewish holiday, as reported in a Benzinga article.

Reports later revealed that critical intelligence regarding a potential threat from Hamas failed to reach the Biden administration before the attack. This raised questions about the communication protocols within the U.S. intelligence community, as detailed in a Benzinga report.

Why It Matters: This incident has prompted a significant response from the United States. The Biden administration is planning to request an aid package from Congress, worth approximately $100 billion, which is expected to include provisions for Israel, according to an earlier Benzinga.

Despite President Biden previously ruling out the deployment of U.S. troops in the region, the intensification of the conflict could necessitate a change in the nation’s stance, as per a Benzinga report.
