'I understand her passion': Joe Biden faces down protester at Detroit rally

President Joe Biden delivered a fiery rally in Detroit on Friday, laying out both his policy accomplishments and his contrast with former President Donald Trump — when he was confronted by a heckler who attacked him for the U.S. support for Israel in the war in Gaza.The crowd tried to drown out the protester with chants of "Four More Years!" but after several moments of chaos and chanting, Biden moved to quiet the audience down and respond to the criticism."Folks. Look. Give me one second," said Biden. "Folks, look. I understand her passion. I understand her passion. That's why I put together a detailed plan that the United Nations accepted, that the Israelis accepted, that the Palestinians accepted, to end this war."EXCLUSIVE: Trump’s ‘secretary of retribution’ has a ‘target list’ of 350 people he wants arrested"This war must end," Biden proclaimed to the crowd of his supporters, as they erupted in cheers. "It must end."The Israel-Hamas war, which flared up after a brutal attack by Hamas terrorists in October of last year that marked the largest individual murder of Jews since the Holocaust, has inflamed political tensions all over the world as cities in Gaza have been leveled and civilians caught in the crossfire, and has led to protest in particular by Muslim-American voters, some of whom have threatened to withhold support from President Biden for not acting quickly enough to rebuke alleged Israeli war crimes and secure a ceasefire.Biden, for his part, has been working behind the scenes for months to try to broker a permanent peace deal, which was repeatedly set back by both Israeli far-right hardliners refusing to accept movement toward a two-state solution and Hamas leaders walking away from U.S.-mediated Israeli offers.Earlier today, Biden announced that Israel and Hamas have agreed to a framework for a ceasefire, although many more steps remain for a true end to the war to materialize.Watch the video below or at the link here.
