Palestinian American Dr. Walks Out of Biden Meeting, Hands Him Letter from 8-Year-Old Orphan in Gaza

Support our work: https://www.democracynow.org/donate?c... This week the White House canceled a planned Ramadan dinner after many Muslim American leaders refused to attend. Instead, Biden held a scaled-back meeting Tuesday with Muslim American community figures. The curtailed meeting was itself met with protests, including from Palestinian American emergency room physician Dr. Thaer Ahmad, who walked out after handing Biden a letter from an 8-year-old orphaned Palestinian girl named Hadeel that read, "I beg you, President Biden, stop them from entering Rafah." Ahmad tells Democracy Now! that he also told Biden, "Make no mistake about it. It's going to be a bloodbath," before walking out. Ahmad is a board member for MedGlobal who recently spent three weeks in Gaza volunteering at Nasser Hospital in Khan Younis. He joins us today to discuss the meeting with Biden, in which Ahmad was told he and other attendees would be the first people who had actually been in Gaza after October 7 to directly brief the president. "This meeting was not going to be impactful," says Ahmad, who shares how Biden's continued backing of Israel, even after its attack on the World Central Kitchen convoy left an American citizen dead, indicates that "nobody is safe" in the Gaza Strip.
