Did President Biden support the "genocide" against Palestinians?

The White House is pushing back against claims made by Rep. Rashida Tlaib that President Biden is supporting the "genocide" against Palestinians in the ongoing conflict with Hamas. Tlaib, who is of Palestinian heritage, accused Biden of genocide in a post on X, along with a video showing pro-Palestinian demonstrations across the country. White House deputy national security adviser Jon Finer stated that they strongly disagree with Tlaib's messaging, but acknowledged the strong views on all sides of the conflict. While expressing concerns about civilian casualties, Finer clarified that they do not accept the application of terms like "genocide" to describe the war. Tlaib's comments have sparked criticism from fellow Democrats, including Michigan Attorney General Dana Nessel, who called them hurtful. Michigan Senate President Pro Tem Jeremy Moss and Florida Rep. Debbie Wasserman Schultz also expressed disagreement with Tlaib's remarks. Moss noted that the phrase "from the river to the sea" is used as a rallying cry by Hamas and does not reflect how Jews or Hamas view the phrase.
