Not only does the "No Hostage Left Behind" letter commend Biden it also blames the genocide in Gaza on Hamas and repeats debunked Israeli propaganda i.e. the "beheaded babies" lie. It does not mention the thousands of Palestinians dead or names Israel as the executioner of those crimes. But he also signed "Artists4ceasefire", an open letter urging an immediate ceasefire in the ongoing conflict between Israel and Palestine.

Contexts

No Hostage Left Behind Letter:

A since deleted sensationalist open letter that relied heavily on since refuted but still actively heinous, destructive and dehumanizing lies about Palestinians having ‘beheaded over 40 babies’ among other bouts of misinformation.

The letter also only asks for the return of Israeli hostages taken by Hamas since October 7th and not the thousands of also innocent Palestinian hostage kidnapped by Israel both before and after October 7th — including hundreds of children who have been documented to have suffered assault, torture, sexual abuse, forced starvation after being imprisoned despite having no charges against them.

It also serves to completely absolve Israel of any accountability over the suffering of Palestinians by shifting the blame to Hamas, despite Israel being the active oppressor of Palestinians for decades, ethnically cleansing the population since the early 1900s and now actively committing a genocide while the entire world watches from their screens.
