Obama Has ONE Word For The Humanitarian Crisis In Gaza

Former President Barack Obama detailed how all Americans are complicit, including himself, for the humanitarian crisis unfolding in Hamas, calling it 'unbearable.' Cenk Uygur and Ana Kasparian discuss on The Young Turks.

"Obama: “What Hamas did was horrific, and there is no justification for it. And what is also true is that the occupation, and what’s happening to Palestinians, is unbearable…

“You have to admit that all of us are complicit to some degree.”"

It’s crazy to hear Obama and Trump’s views toward BB but those presidents still sent Israel military aide

[xwzlcrj]

"If you want to solve the problem, you have to take in the WHOLE truth." Bang on Obama!

[southernbelladonna]

The innocent civilians always pays the price in the end. 😢

[krocs]

What is sad is people think they are defending Israel. That is not true. They are defending "Bibi" and that is not in the best interest of Israel or the world.

As a diaspora jew, who is disgusted by Hamas, I hate Netanyahu with my guts. I knew his policies would lead to this. I have an extreme anger towards him.

[zameedinshan]

Yes, everyone is condeming condeming Hamas but everyone forgot that Israel has been illegally occupying Palestine for over40 years and nobody said anything

[kaas]

But you did not do anything when you were president in 8 years...

[tmlwe]

One word: Egoistic leaders trying to portray themselves as good men.

[okaytosmile]

Give them back their land, free Palestine. Send the Israeli people to UK, USA, India and France. Which one of your allies wants you???? The conflict started in 1946

[Ralius-svnz]

Shit, trump sounding reasonable and not like a clown is so strange.

[redfernfarmstead]

"....humanitarian crisis unfolding in Hamas" ? what is that supposed to mean? The crisis is unfolding in Gaza and the West Bank--Palestine, not "in Hamas."

[moghweir]

You are wrong about what hamas did on the 7th of 0ctober. You Mr Obama forget that Palestine has been occupied since 1948...

Charming warmongers are the most dangerous ones.

[jaws-bg]

Under his leadership, he attacked Libya. Replacing secular dictatorship to hard-line extreimst groups, ensuring on going war forever. Similar things happened in Iraq.

[danielburke]

What Hamas did, can't compare to what Israel did over the years.

[robynfitzsimmons]

I DO NOT BELIEVE ANY OF THESE PEOPLE ANY MORE.

The contrast between the U.S. and Israel’s healthcare systems is notable. Despite the U.S. providing significant foreign aid to Israel, a country with universal healthcare, many U.S. citizens remain uninsured.

In the U.S., out-of-pocket healthcare costs have risen significantly over the years. In 2021, U.S. out-of-pocket health care payments came to an average of $1, 233 per capita. Given that the average household income in the U.S. is $87, 864, as of 2023, that means the average American family spends at least $4, 393 in these expenses each year. On the other hand, in Israel, there are no costs.

The question arises: Is the U.S. government working for the benefit of its own citizens or for the benefit of others

I voted for Obama twice but on Palestine he was just as weak and hypocritical as all the U.S. Presidents since 1948, except Eisenhower. Sure Obama's relationship with Netanyahu was bad but when Israel bombed Gaza during his administration he criticized the loss of civilians but when the Israelis told him they were running low on bombs he opened up U.S. prepositioned stores in Israel for them. With regard to Israel you have to look at what leaders do, or not do, not what they say. Listening to Trump talk about Abbas and Netanyahu reminded me of Jimmy Carter in his first book talking about Menachem Begin and Anwar Sadat. The former was an obstinate jerk and the later was more amenable to an agreement. The only reasons for success at Camp David was Carter's persistence and Sadat's relative decency. For years Netanyahu said he had no partner for peace, when he never wanted it unless totally on his terms.

[sdsa]

Obama saying ''Í got the scars on my back to prove it.' I just processed that.... Obama must have really hated that relationship in the strongest terms! Yet he has such a calm voice.

[wangbang]

As I recall, many innocent children where killed by USA bombing in Iraq and Afghanistan.
