[Times of Israel](https://www.timesofisrael.com/hamas-hostage-deal-rebuff-preceded-unsc-vote-us-says-accusing-pm-of-playing-politics/)

> **Top Biden administration official says Netanyahu’s claim that resolution led to hardened Hamas stance inaccurate**, unfair to hostages; **insinuates premier is neglecting them**

**There was no hardened Hamas stance due ot the UN resolution
Israel has been “unfair” and neglectful to the hostages all along. One may even say murderous?**

> **Hamas’s rejection of the latest hostage deal** offer **was issued before the United Nations Security Council resolution calling for a ceasefire** and hostage deal that Washington allowed to pass, a senior Biden administration official told The Times of Israel on Thursday, blasting Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu for claiming the UN vote led the terror group to harden its stance in the talks.
> 
> **Netanyahu’s office said** in an earlier statement that Hamas’s decision to reject a US-brokered compromise was ***“a sad testament to the damage caused by the UN Security Council resolution.***”

**Long story short- Netanyahu is lying to Israelis**

> The comments were repeated in similar terms on the record by US State Department spokesman Matthew Miller later Tuesday. **“That statement, which I believe said that Hamas pulled out of the hostage talks or Hamas rejected the most recent proposal because of the United Nations Security Council resolution, that statement is inaccurate in almost every respect and it is unfair to the hostages and their families,**” said Miller.
> 
> The back-and-forth came a day after the **White House accused the premier of manufacturing a crisis in US-Israel ties.**
> However, the senior administration official maintained that Hamas had already delivered its response before the vote.
> 
> **Indeed, senior Hamas official Osama Hamdan issued a statement hours before the Security Council meeting,** rejecting the US’s involvement in the talks along with Qatar and Egypt and maintaining that the mediators were overly focused on the number of Palestinian security prisoners to be released in the deal, rather than issues more important to Hamas such as ending the Israeli “aggression” in Gaza, scaling up humanitarian aid, allowing Palestinians to return to the northern Strip and advancing a plan for the enclave’s reconstruction.

Israeli media is reporting the fact that Netanyahu lied- Interesting?
