Rubio has consistently opposed a ceasefire in the conflict between Israel and Hamas. In October 2023, he stated, “A “cease fire” right now would prolong the war. Hamas would use it to steal humanitarian aid, move their fighters to better fighting positions, move hostages to new hiding places and arm their rocket launchers for attacks inside Israel.”
In a post in April, Rubio said, “The next time you hear the “ceasefire” crowd described as “peace activists” remember how many of them cheered the launch of hundreds of drones and missiles at Israel. They don’t want a ceasefire, they want Israel destroyed.”
