In the wake of President Donald Trump’s historic peace deal between Israel and the Hamas terrorist group, former President Joe Biden and former Secretary of State Antony Blinken attempted to take some credit for the ceasefire agreement. It was under the Biden administration that the Palestinian terrorist group launched its massacre against Israel on October 7, 2023.

Biden wrote on Monday night, "I am deeply grateful and relieved that this day has come – for the last living 20 hostages who have been through unimaginable hell and are finally reunited with their families and loved ones, and for the civilians in Gaza who have experienced immeasurable loss and will finally get the chance to rebuild their lives."



He continued, "The road to this deal was not easy. My Administration worked relentlessly to bring hostages home, get relief to Palestinian civilians, and end the war."

Biden, however, did offer Trump and his team credit "for their work to get a renewed ceasefire deal over the finish line."

Blinken on Saturday issued a lengthy thread on X in which he claimed that Trump had "adopted and built on" a plan created by the Biden administration.



"It’s good that President Trump adopted and built on the plan the Biden Administration developed after months of discussion with Arab partners, Israel and the Palestinian Authority," Blinken wrote.

He later added, "I also commend President Trump for reaffirming the key principles we established for Gaza at the outset of the war -- no platform for terrorism, no annexation, no occupation, no forced population transfers -- and for making clear the overall goal is to create the conditions for a credible pathway to a Palestinian state."



Trump was asked about Blinken’s comments aboard Air Force One by Fox News’ Peter Doocy. Trump said, "Everybody knows it’s a joke. Look, they did such a bad job. This should have never happened." He added, "If just a decent president — not a great president like me — if a decent president were in, you wouldn’t have had the Russia-Ukraine [war]. This was bad policy by Biden and Obama."
