President Joe Biden hardly glossed over the horrific Hamas attack in Israel during his speech Thursday night. He said, “More than 1,300 people [were] slaughtered in Israel, including at least 32 American citizens. Scores of innocents from infants to the elderly, grandparents, Israelis, Americans taken hostage.” He also said Hamas “unleashed pure unadulterated evil” and that Jews know well “that there is no limit to the depravity of people when they want to inflict pain on others.”

Apparently, Sean Hannity had been hoping for graphic descriptions of that depravity. Or maybe photos! Squinting into the camera, he said, “I wanted to hear more about the barbaric brutality that took place in Israel and their terror attack the worst in their history. I wanted to hear more about the hostages. I wanted to hear more about the Americans killed.”

We all know Hannity would have complained about Biden’s address to the nation no matter what he said. But as a long time observer of Hannity, I can assure you his bloodlust is genuine.
