Former United States President Bill Clinton is facing wide criticism for controversial remarks he made on Wednesday, which justified the killing of Palestinian civilians in Gaza by the Israeli occupation army.
The backlash against the former US President came following remarks he made at a rally in Michigan in support of presidential nominee Vice President Kamala Harris when he said that Hamas “forced” Israel to kill Palestinian civilians in Gaza.
“I understand why young Palestinians and Arab Americans in Michigan think too many people have died. I get that,” Clinton said addressing Arab American voters.
He continued: “But if you lived in one of those kibbutzim in Israel right next to Gaza, where the people there were the most pro-friendship with Palestine, most pro-two-state solution of any of the Israeli communities — were the ones right next to Gaza. And Hamas butchered them.”
