The White House interns who sent an anonymous \u2018demand\u2019 letter to President Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris for a ceasefire in the Israel war were mocked online.<\/p>\n

A group of 40 interns, who did not put their names on the letter, made headlines after they demanded the president and vice president push for a \u2018permanent cease-fire\u2019 in the war between Israel and the Palestinian terrorist organization Hamas.<\/p>\n

\u2018We, the undersigned Fall 2023 White House and Executive Office of the President interns, will no longer remain silent on the ongoing genocide of the Palestinian people,\u2019 the interns\u2019 letter begins. \u2018We are Palestinian, Jewish, Arab, Muslim, Christian, Black, Asian, Latine, White, and Queer.\u2019<\/p>\n

\u2018We heed the voices of the American people and call on the Administration to demand a permanent cease-fire,\u2019 the letter continued. \u2018We are not the decision makers of today, but we aspire to be the leaders of tomorrow, and we will never forget how the pleas of the American people have been heard and thus far, ignored.\u2019<\/p>\n

The letter adds that while the interns were \u2018horrified\u2019 by the Oct. 7 Hamas attack on southern Israel that launched the war, they oppose the \u2018brutal and genocidal response by the Israeli government, funded by our American tax dollars, which has killed over 14,000 innocent Palestinian civilians in Gaza, a large percentage of whom are children\u2019 \u2014 echoing a death statistic from the Hamas-run Palestinian Ministry of Health.<\/p>\n

The progressive demands from the anonymous interns, however, did not hit home with the many on X, formerly Twitter, who mocked the interns for demanding the president of the United States capitulate to their foreign policy.<\/p>\n

\u2018Hate to say it, but interns who think they have the right to usurp the President\u2019s role as policy maker, are not wise enough to be interning anywhere, let alone in the White House,\u2019 the Democratic Majority for Israel tweeted.<\/p>\n

\u2018Interns going \u2018Veep\u2019 on Biden,\u2019 congressional meme king Rep. Mike Collins, R-Ga., tweeted, referencing the hit TV show.<\/p>\n

\u2018Incredible. The media is writing breathlessly about anonymous interns who demand Biden support Hamas,\u2019 Arkansas Republican Sen. Tom Cotton tweeted.<\/p>\n

Other users didn\u2019t hold back on their thoughts on the interns \u2014 or the press coverage about the letter.<\/p>\n

The White House did not immediately respond to Fox News Digital\u2019s request for comment on the criticism of the interns they hired.<\/p>\n

A temporary cease-fire and hostage release deal between Israel and Hamas went into effect in late November but lasted for only a week before fighting resumed in the Gaza Strip.<\/p>\n

On Tuesday, Biden blamed Hamas for breaking the pause in fighting, telling donors the terrorist group\u2019s \u2018refusal to release the remaining young women is what broke this deal.\u2019<\/p>\n

Fox News Digital\u2019s Greg Norman contributed reporting.<\/p>\n\n
