Summary

President Biden made brief remarks following a meeting with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu today saying the IDF was not to blame for the explosion at a hospital in Gaza. The President also warned Iran, despite strong ties to Hamas, to stay out of the conflict. Tehran's amount of involvement in the terror attack by Hamas is still being discussed but their long history with the militant group and the Muslim Brotherhood cannot be denied. FOX's Eben Brown speaks with Rich Goldberg, a senior advisor at Foundation for the Defense of Democracies and former Director for Countering Iranian Weapons of Mass Destruction for the White House National Security Council, about the influence Iran has over Hamas and what was their role in the terror attack.
