The White House fired back at the head of the Republican National Committee for saying the attacks on Israel presented a 'great opportunity' for GOP candidates

The White House condemned the chair of the Republican National Committee on Monday after she said on television that the recent attacks in Israel were a "great opportunity" for GOP candidates.

Answering a question from Fox News' Griff Jenkins on Saturday about how candidates were responding to the warfare, Ronna McDaniel said that Hamas' all-out attack on Israel over the weekend presented a key chance for Republicans vying to become the next president to make their case about why a Republican president should lead the country next.

"I think this is a great opportunity for our candidates to contrast where Republicans have stood with Israel, time and time again, and Joe Biden has been weak," McDaniel said. "And when America is weak, the world is less safe. We're seeing this not just with the war in Ukraine and with an emboldened China, but now with an attack on Israel."

Two days after McDaniel's comments, White House deputy press secretary Andrew Bates said, "No one can ever welcome this kind of hideous behavior or try to divide the country when we need to be united."

"At least nine Americans have lost their lives in these brutal terrorist attacks against the State of Israel," Bates said in a statement. "Hundreds of additional innocent people are dead. While apparently some individuals like Ronna McDaniel consider this loss of life and pain a 'great opportunity,' most Americans see it as a horrific tragedy. As the administration provides assistance to the Israeli Defense Force, this is a moment in which all Americans, regardless of political views, should stand shoulder to shoulder with one of our closest allies.
