Joe Biden’s attack was aimed at preventing the proximity of Saudi Arabia and Israel.
Joe Biden, the President of the United States, speculates that Hamas’ major attack on Israeli civilians on October 7th was carried out to sabotage efforts to bring Saudi Arabia closer to Israel and normalize relations between the two countries.
During a fundraising event for election campaigns held on Friday, Biden stated that one of the reasons Hamas attacked Israel was because they knew I was negotiating with the Saudis and the Saudis wanted to recognize Israel.
Normalizing Saudi Arabia’s relations with other Arab countries, including Israel, was the highest priority of Antony Blinken, the US Secretary of State, during his trip to the Middle East in June, although he said that progress in this regard would not be expected in the near future.
