Quotation from Antony Blinken “Executed, then their executioner sat down and had a meal.” — Oct. 31 2023

"

A family, at its braekfast table, in one of the kibbutzes. By the way, the profound irony of attacks on kibbutzes, the very people who most ardently believe and want a future of peace between Israelis and Palestinians, a future of two states. A family of four. A young boy and girl, six and eight years old, and their parents around the breakfast table. The father, his eye gouged out in front of his kids. The mother’s breast cut off, the girl’s foot amputated, the boy’s fingers cut off before they were executed.
And then their executioner sat down and had a meal. That’s what the society is dealing with. And no nation could tolerate that. And as we’ve said repeatedly, as President Biden has repeatedly made clear, Israel has not only the right, but the obligation to defend itself and to try to take every possible step to make sure this doesn’t happen again.
