Biden to Israel: it appears 'other team' to blame for hospital bombing

President Biden landed in Israel Wednesday and immediately held a meeting for press with Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu where he seemed to endorse the Israeli's version of who caused the hospital explosion in Gaza on Tuesday.

"Based on what I’ve seen, it appears as though it was done by the other team, not you,” Biden told Netanyahu as they sat opposite each other. “But there’s a lot of people out there not sure.”

Israel has blamed Islamic Jihad Palestinian militants for they say was an errant bomb. Palestinian officials say Israel was responsible. Neither claim has been independently verified, and according to Peter Baker of the New York Times, U.S. officials told reporters on the plane to Israel that they were still gathering information, so it is not clear what Biden was looking at to make his assessment.
