Nikki Haley Cautions Biden to be Smart After Hamas’ Released 2 American Hostages

Nikki Haley, Republican presidential candidate and a supporter of Israel, reiterated on Friday her support. She also warned the Biden Administration to be “smart” in its handling of Qatari mediation efforts which led to the Hamas release of two American hostages – a mother and daughter.

Hamas took the hostages, identified by Judith Raanan and Natalie Raanan from the Nahal Oz kibbutz, located in southern Israel, near the Gaza Strip, and they were released on humanitarian grounds following Qatari intervention.

The second thing I will say to the Biden Administration is that they shouldn’t be fooled. You know, I’ve dealt with Qatar to try and get hostages out of Gaza or hostage bodies,” Haley said on Friday. This is what they do. They are trying to gain favor with the United States.”

There are still at least 11 Americans missing.

Haley stated that Hamas was worried about an Israeli ground operation. “They’re going throw two hostages for one, to see if we can weaken them to prevent Israel from going into Gaza,” Haley who was wearing a sweatshirt with the phrase “She Who Dares, Wins.”

The motto of Sayeret Matkal is “Who Dares, Wins”.

This is the time to be intelligent. Haley told her to “go in smart”. Don’t let it weaken us. Do not fall for it. There are 200 more hostages inside. Don’t forget about what happened on October 7. They want everyone to forget. We will never forget. “Israel needs to remain focused and determined, while America needs to be on their side.”

Haley, the former U.S. Ambassador to the United Nations, under the previous President Trump, has shown her unwavering support for Israel ever since Hamas’s deadly attacks against Israeli civilians.

Ken Farnaso stated that Haley proudly stood with Israel in its fight for peace. “At UN, she warned against Hamas and stood for Israel – and she will do the same as President.” We need a president who will stand by Israel, not just when it is attacked but also when Israel strikes back.

The Squad, an organization of progressive House Democrats continued to call for a truce Friday, citing Israel’s bombardment on the Hamas-controlled Gaza Strip. The group was heavily criticized because it appeared to blame Israel for the attacks.

“The squad acts like the terrorists,” Haley said. “Here they are, and they’re basically mimicking pro-Hamas comments. They refuse to acknowledge the bloodshed and the torture and the terrorists that have caused all of this.”
