U.S. Secretary of State Antony Blinken said overseas on Thursday that Israel is on the verge of becoming indistinguishable from Hamas, the Foreign Terrorist Organization (FTO) responsible for murdering 1,200 people on October 7 and wounding thousands more.

Blinken made the remarks while speaking in Brussels shortly after the White House released a readout of a conversation that President Joe Biden had with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu earlier in the day.

Biden attacked Israel for the humanitarian situation inside Gaza, calling it “unacceptable,” even though Israel has worked to allow aid to flow into the area, but has had to do so in a manner that prevents weapons from entering. Biden also seemed to suggest that Israel was responsible for Hamas not freeing the hostages that it kidnapped more than six months ago.
