‘End This War’: Biden Calls for Gaza Cease-fire in Final U.N. Speech | USAEMALL.com

The world must not flinch from the horrors of Oct. 7. Any country, any country would have the right and responsibility to ensure that such an attack can never happen again. Two hundred and fifty innocents taken hostage. I’ve met with the families of those hostages. I’ve grieved with them. They’re going through hell. Innocent civilians in Gaza are also going through hell. Thousands and thousands killed, including aid workers. Too many families dislocated, crowding into tents, facing a dire humanitarian situation. They didn’t ask for this war that Hamas started. I put forward with Qatar and Egypt a cease-fire and hostage deal. It’s been endorsed by the U.N. Security Council. Now is the time for the parties to finalize its terms. Bring the hostages home and secure security for Israel and Gaza free of Hamas’s grip. Ease the suffering in Gaza and end this war.
