Trump hits ‘weak’ Biden on Israel-Hamas war strategy: ‘I will fix his mess’

Former President Trump on Tuesday hit President Biden on what he called a weak strategy regarding the Israel-Hamas war, vowing to fix the situation in the Middle East if he’s reelected.

“Weak Joe Biden is only now scrambling to fix the DISASTER he created in the Middle East because he’s afraid of losing the Election,” Trump said in a statement on Truth Social.

“We HAD Peace in the Middle East, and we can have it again, but it won’t be with Joe Biden in office,” he added.

The former president’s statement comes after Biden laid out a three-phase peace plan on Friday that would wind down fighting between Israel and Hamas and allow for the rebuilding of Gaza.

Trump on Tuesday said there were no “new wars” when he was president and promised peace if he’s elected to another term in the White House.

“NO MORE TERROR. NO MORE CIVILIANS DYING. NONE OF THIS SHOULD EVER HAVE HAPPENED. It’s all because of Weak Biden’s INCOMPETENCE. I will fix his mess, and bring Peace to ALL Parties once again, and we’ll get it done FAST!” he said.

Biden, when announcing the peace deal, argued that Hamas, which has been sent the agreement, has been degraded to the point that it can’t carry out an attack similar to its Oct. 7 strike.

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, however, has said the war should continue until Hamas is completely destroyed.

Biden said it is reasonable to infer that Netanyahu is prolonging the war for his own political benefit, telling Time magazine that “There is every reason for people to draw that conclusion.”

Biden, who has been a longtime supporter of a two-state solution between Israel and Palestine, said his major disagreement with Netanyahu over the war is about what would happen when it ends.
