Spokesperson Matthew Miller leads the Department Press Briefing, at the Department of State on December 4, 2023.
Responding to a reporter. The entire interaction was encouraging to watch. In fact, the whole press conference was. This bit stood out, because we don't hear it enough:
"It is Hamas that is putting these civilians in harm's way... I'm surprised I don't hear more people saying:
- 'Why doesn't Hamas lay down it's arms?'
- 'Why doesn't Hamas move out of schools?'
- 'Why doesn't Hamas take additional steps to protect civilians?'
because we think they should as we think Israel should."
