Cory Booker: Biden Is Making Tough Calls to End the Violence, We Need to Get Humanitarian Aid to Gaza
EXCERPT:
BOOKER: "I think it‘s frustrating for I think anybody who looks at it and feels frustrated to see the kind of death and destruction in Gaza, the kind of violence that was endured by Israel, the worst attack on Jews since the Holocaust. The hostages, including Americans that are being held, these are not easy issues and they shouldn‘t be judged on the politics of them. They should be judged on the work that needs to get done to resolve this conflict. And I‘m grateful that President Biden is standing in the saddle in a very difficult time to lead globally, making tough calls and trying to drive this conflict to a resolution to end the violence and resolve the situation in a way that ends this punctuated violence we‘ve had there, whether it‘s what we just saw or the attacks on Israel in 2014, or what Hamas and Iran and their proxies have been doing. This is tough times. And I understand the political ramifications, Gayle, but this is really a time that should pull on our humanitarian heart.”
