Biden Reaffirms 'Ironclad' Support For Israel Amid Passover, Hamas Conflict
==========
President Biden has reaffirmed his unwavering support for Israel amid the ongoing Israel-Hamas conflict, connecting the affirmation to the Jewish holiday of Passover. He expressed his commitment to the safety of the Jewish people, the security of Israel, and its right to exist as an independent Jewish state. Biden has also dedicated himself to pursuing a temporary ceasefire to secure the release of hostages held by Hamas. The conflict has been a major concern for the international community, with the U.S. actively involved in trying to broker a ceasefire and intensifying economic pressure on Iran in response to the attacks on Israel. The conflict has also had ripple effects on the global economy, with stock market futures dipping and oil prices surging. Additionally, the conflict has sparked reactions from prominent figures, including Elon Musk who criticized the use of U.S. tax dollars in the Israeli airstrike on Iran. The conflict has also led to protests within tech companies and the termination of employees who opposed the company’s Israeli government cloud contract.
