In an explosive revelation that’s shaking the corridors of power in Washington, it has emerged that the Biden administration blatantly disregarded a crucial warning that eventually precipitated brutal Hamas terrorist attacks on Israel. The damning information was laid bare by Senator Ted Cruz, who lambasted Biden’s administration as the “most consistently and virulently anti-Israel administration America has ever seen.”
The attacks, which Cruz described as the “worst attack Israel has faced in 50 years,” were funded “in a very real and concrete way” by the Biden administration. Cruz’s accusations are grounded in the fact that Biden officials were forewarned that sending American tax dollars to Gaza would inadvertently fund Hamas’s terrorism. Yet, they proceeded with their plan, leading to the horrific catastrophe unfolding in Israel.
Biden officials knew that sending American tax dollars to Gaza would fund Hamas's terrorism.
He did it anyway.
The catastrophe now unfolding in Israel is the direct and predictable result of explicit policy choices made by Joe Biden.https://t.co/ZozP7vEzGR

Cruz’s comments were backed by a State Department document from March 2021, obtained by the Washington Free Beacon and verified by Fox News Digital. This internal document revealed officials’ concerns that unfreezing over $360 million in U.S. funds for the Palestinian Authority could indirectly benefit terror groups like Hamas. Despite these risks, the officials argued this move was necessary for national security.
Adding fuel to the fire, conservative commentator Charlie Kirk highlighted how Biden’s $1.9 trillion American Rescue Plan, intended to help Americans recover from the pandemic, inexplicably allocated $500 million to the State Department to “resettle refugees.” Of this, $33.7 million went directly to Gaza via the United Nations Relief and Works Agency (UNRWA), an organization described as “effectively a branch of Hamas.”
According to Kirk, “Biden has given this branch of Hamas $730 million since 2021, making the US taxpayer its largest donor in the world.” He further exposed how UNRWA schools teach anti-Jewish hatred and glorify terrorism, with their facilities often used to store rockets, munitions, and serve as human shields for Hamas.
In a scathing indictment of Biden’s administration, Kirk argued that the American Rescue Plan ended up funding terrorism and inflaming tensions in the Middle East. He called for an immediate halt to this flow of money and for those responsible to be held accountable.
