This week the White House canceled a planned Ramadan dinner after many Muslim American leaders refused to attend. Instead, Biden held a scaled-back meeting Tuesday with Muslim American community figures. The curtailed meeting was itself met with protests, including from Palestinian American emergency room physician Dr. Thaer Ahmad, who walked out after handing Biden a letter from an 8-year-old orphaned Palestinian girl named Hadeel that read, “I beg you, President Biden, stop them from entering Rafah.” Ahmad tells Democracy Now! that he also told Biden, “Make no mistake about it. It’s going to be a bloodbath,” before walking out. Ahmad is a board member for MedGlobal who recently spent three weeks in Gaza volunteering at Nasser Hospital in Khan Younis. He joins us today to discuss the meeting with Biden, in which Ahmad was told he and other attendees would be the first people who had actually been in Gaza after October 7 to directly brief the president. “This meeting was not going to be impactful,” says Ahmad, who shares how Biden’s continued backing of Israel, even after its attack on the World Central Kitchen convoy left an American citizen dead, indicates that “nobody is safe” in the Gaza Strip.

Netanyahu funded Hamas through Qatar😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
And YES, the IDF did that IN PURPOSE! If “Hamas” did this, it would have been on purpose.. right???
This meeting was THE FIRST TIME Biden was informed of the ongoings in Gaza & West Bank⁉️ what information were they feeding this senile man until now? No WONDER he's been backing israel 100%!!!
How did great America fall under the authority of these type of leaders. How great!
Dr. Thaer Ahmad talked a lot about the problems faced in Gaza. From the start the war was started by Hamas after killing innocent Israelites on October 7th and taking some hostage. Why isn't any one blaming Hamas for starting the war and refusing to stop the war by returning the hostages? Hamas doesn't feel sad at what problems the Palestinians face. By holding on to the hostages the war goes on. We feel sorry for both sides who ever have lost their near and dear ones all because of what happened on October 7th. Wish it never happened.
Dr. Ahmmedwalked out of President Biden’s administration is a good thing so that Biden can get ride of Hamas supporters in the white house
There will be no change in rhetoric, Hamas is terrorists, and palestinians are Hamas. Raising children to hate, that's just ugly.
Israel we're bringing Ukrainians into the IDF as far back as 2004, perhaps before. They were putting swastikas on walls in the basic training areas. Why Ukrainians? Look deeply into where the Ashkenazis come from…and the Ukrainian have no problem murdering Palestinians…yes the plans set in motion decades in advance on all the craziness….
As long as we believe in democracy, the majority will win.. since we face a right winged 'Benjamin' policy, we won't win any justice😢, it seems to me the Multimedia news is in the hands of the same right wing 'jews' but they belong to a select part of israel.. the jew who claim a maternal bloodline, forget israels 12 tribes of paternal bloodlines.. so it is necessary to gather those 12 tribes of Israel to set things right
Am a spokesman of the tribe of Joseph, through efraim
I am African ;Jean Pierre is a TRAITOR , a very pretty MENGELE !!
Tant que les USA et les européens aideront Israël avec des armes puissantes, les pays musulmans frontaliers ne seront pas en sécurité, à moins que les pays arabes soient Unis, car les occidentaux ont détruit l Irak, la Syrie, la Libye et après ce sera qui, ça suffit
The United States which is run by the EDOMITES is full of s***
And so is Israel (Amelek) we already know they're all the same people wanting the same one world government don't be fooled
Israël mène l' opération Annibal, c'est flagrant
Et aucun pays ne riposte.pourquoi que possède Israël comme armes de destruction massive, pourquoi personne n intervient parce que les USA vont riposter envers le pays qui osera donner une leçon à Israël votre petit enfant gâté
Release the hostages you terrorist
Is no one reading the bible in that white house. I cannot wait because Nov can't come soon enough. Biden needs to go to the nursing home
The White House of Americans is unconsciously avoiding the unpleasant feelings of the truths of all our lives.
demons of century .Netaniyahoo and biden…ablot on worlds' total history..of billions of years'.
Biden doesn’t have a soul that little child’s letter
Who would systematically kill volunteers assisting to feed the hungry people? What do you have is a situation and it is cold WAR! to say that about Israel is so inhumane and so not true. People need to stop saying what they are not thinking about and start thinking about what they are saying.
You shouldn’t be having dinner Ramadan dinners with Muslim. It’s a lot of terrible stuff going on and there’s no time to be celebrating. We should be praying for this nation and praying for the nation of Israel for God’s sovereignty
These people were not assassinated. Everybody wants to say what they want to say, but they are not looking at the big picture. The president of Israel has come out and said what he did, and has apologize, but these people were killed by friendly fire. It happens in war.❤
You are not the only one grieving Palestinians are not the only one grieving. A lot has happened were brings grief.❤
As a doctor, you would think that you would be more open minded to the whole situation, and not so narrow version of thinking that is real. What systematically destroy a group of people as they have been targeted and have been systematically being destroyed I don’t think this is the case.❤
So what you’re saying everybody can say the same thing you were saying, but just to keep on arguing saying that Palestinians and the food workers in the volunteers were targeted is just not true. You are too intelligent to know that.
Why doesnt the good doctor go to talk with Hamass to give back the hostages, stop attacking Israel from civilian areas and then surrender?
Free the Palestinians…. Open the Rafah border into Egypt.
The Egyptian government disregards the need to evacuate civilians in war.
He walked out of white house meeting with the US notourious president who is blindly arming israel and dupports genocide of childrens womens and men all unarmed in gaza
Ehat these guys thinking of?
It was no mistake they want the palestinians to starved to death.
There is no peace in the Middle East without Sharia reform:
Abolish polygamy
Abolish Dhimmitude
Abolish the system of jurisprudence that permits violent fatwas issued by imams
Military–Industrial Complex pushes hatred on both sides to keep the world in WAR mode. Both Israel and Palestine are just pawns now. AND customers.
For over 100 years, in the Holyland, Arabs sold large lands to Jews but then refused them equal political rights because of sharia law.
Free Palestinians from Hamas
The world was given into the hands of the wicked ‼️‼️‼️‼️
This Carnage that the United States is supporting in Israel or IS-NOT-REAL is Absolutely WRONG! It is madness that Biden and the government are taking American TAX PAYER'S BILLIONS of dollars and send it to these deplorable, horrible, MURDEROUS people?
This is PURE MADNESS!!!😲🫤😱😰
Dr.Thair thanks a lot
