Clinton calls for the ouster of Netanyahu: He cannot be trusted
Former US Secretary of State Hillary Clinton criticized Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's handling of the war between Israel and Hamas, calling for his ouster.
In an interview with msnbc, Clinton said: “Netanyahu must go. He is not a trustworthy leader. The October 7 attack occurred during his watch. He needs to leave, and if he is an obstacle to a ceasefire, and if he is an obstacle to exploring what has to be done the next day, he definitely has to go."
After previously expressing her strong support for Israel's war efforts, she indicated in the interview that "we hope that there will be a ceasefire," considering that "if Hamas agrees to a ceasefire, there will be a ceasefire."
In response to a question about US President Joe Biden’s relationship with Netanyahu, she said: “I think Biden did everything he could do in order to respond to the legitimate concerns of the Israeli people after October 7, to ally with Israel in the face of a terrorist attack from a terrorist organization. But I think it is also clear “Biden is doing everything he can to influence Netanyahu.”
