Secretary of State Antony Blinken, visiting Israel for the fourth time since Hamas' terrorist attack on Oct. 7, said Friday he saw more evidence of atrocities committed by Hamas against Israeli citizens.
"It remains almost beyond the human capacity to process, to digest," Blinken said during a news conference in Tel Aviv. "That's what we're dealing with," Blinken said. "And it is striking and, in some ways, shocking that the brutality of the slaughter has receded so quickly in the memories of so many. But not in Israel, and not in America. Thirty-five Americans were murdered that day as well, and more than 200 foreign nationals from 35 countries."
"Hamas doesn't care one second or one iota for the welfare, for the well-being of the Palestinian people," he said. "It cynically and monstrously uses them as human shields, putting its commanders in command posts; its weapons and ammunition within or beneath residential buildings, schools, mosques, hospitals.
