What Hamas did was horrific…what is happening to Palestinians is unbearable: Obama
Former US president Barack Obama has condemned the Israel-Hamas war in which thousands have been killed and said the conflict is the “century-old stuff” that has come to the fore.
“I look at this, and I think back, ‘What could I have done during my presidency to move this forward, as hard as I tried?’ But there’s a part of me that’s still saying, ‘Well, was there something else I could have done’,” he was quoted as saying at an interview by the New York Times.
He said social media was largely responsible for worsening the animosity within the two sides.
“What Hamas did was horrific, and there’s no justification for it…And what is also true is that the occupation and what’s happening to Palestinians is unbearable,” he added.
