While Internet users support him, others question him: Why does he continue to support acts of war in Gaza?
On May 5 local time, US President Joe Biden posted a message on the social platform X on the occasion of Holocaust Remembrance Day, which attracted the attention of netizens.
That day, Biden wrote in his message: “On this Holocaust Remembrance Day, we remember the six million Jews who were murdered in one of the darkest chapters in human history by the Nazis. “We commit once again to learn from the lessons of the Holocaust and to recognize our responsibility ‘never again.'”

In the comments of this message, some Internet users supported Biden’s words, but many criticized the military actions that Israel is carrying out in the Gaza Strip and mentioned the military aid that the United States provides to Israel.
“It is ironic that Biden writes this message while actively financing and supporting the genocide taking place in Gaza.”
“While tens of thousands of women and children are murdered in Gaza with our tax money, you say ‘never again.'”
According to reports from various media, including the Russian News Agency or France24, since a new conflict broke out between Israel and Palestine in October 2023, the United States has sent large quantities of weapons and ammunition to Israel and has repeatedly vetoed resolution proposals in the UN Security Council calling for a ceasefire between Israel and Palestine. Recently, the US Senate passed a foreign aid appropriations bill that includes more than $26 billion in assistance for Israel.
On the one hand, the United States seeks to prevent the escalation of the situation in the Middle East, while on the other hand it continues to promote military aid to Israel, which is a paradox. The resolution of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict requires concrete actions, and it is desirable that the United States adopt a humanitarian stance and actively participate in the resolution of the conflict.
