Former US President Donald Trump accused President Joe Biden of "indirectly funding" the deadly Hamas militant attacks on Israel. Trump blamed President Biden for emboldening terrorists and making the US appear weak during deadly Hamas attacks on Israel. At a rally, Trump vowed to cut off funding to "Palestinian terrorists" if elected. He claimed the assaults were enabled by Biden being a "really weak leader". Trump asserted that US taxpayer dollars "indirectly funded" the strikes via sanctions relief to Iran, drawing White House denials. Biden deputy press secretary Andrew Bates called it a "shameful lie", noting the funds can only buy humanitarian supplies. Trump said the attacks must be crushed and avenged, while criticizing Biden for undermining US strength.
