Biden's Security Team Briefed US Senators on Hamas' Israel Attack and Drew an Unbelievable Conclusion
Matt Vespa
This conclusion can’t be correct. Is the Biden White House so afraid that they funded terrorism that they're giving half-baked/politically motivated security briefings to members of Congress? It wouldn’t shock me, as Joe Biden’s team is known for being epically incompetent or outright liars. Fox News’ Jacqui Henrich had a Twitter thread about the briefing and its unbelievable conclusion from intelligence officials: there is no direct link between Iran and Hamas’ October 7 attack on Israel.
“In fact, he claims to have reports that directly contradict the information that was being reporting in WSJ article,” wrote Henrich.
“Currently the US is reviewing intelligence they have gathered to see how this attack was missed.”

Here’s what that WSJ article said about Iran’s involvement in planning the attacks:
Iranian security officials helped plan Hamas’s Saturday surprise attack on Israel and gave the green light for the assault at a meeting in Beirut last Monday, according to senior members of Hamas and Hezbollah, another Iran-backed militant group.
Officers of Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps had worked with Hamas since August to devise the air, land and sea incursions—the most significant breach of Israel’s borders since the 1973 Yom Kippur War—those people said.
Details of the operation were refined during several meetings in Beirut attended by IRGC officers and representatives of four Iran-backed militant groups, including Hamas, which holds power in Gaza, and Hezbollah, a Shiite militant group and political faction in Lebanon, they said.
U.S. officials say they haven’t seen evidence of Tehran’s involvement. In an interview with CNN that aired Sunday, Secretary of State Antony Blinken said: “We have not yet seen evidence that Iran directed or was behind this particular attack, but there is certainly a long relationship.”
