Topics: Joe Biden, Conspiracy Theories
The US President is returning home after visiting Israel following the deadly Hamas terror attack.
Joe Biden says his trip to the Middle East was a success because he was able to unblock humanitarian aid to the Gaza Strip.
The besieged Palestinian territory has been mercilessly bombed as Israel launched a counter-offensive after Hamas' attack.
Thousands of people have been murdered in both the attack and the resulting retaliatory airstrikes.

Speaking on Air Force One, Biden said: “I was very blunt with the Israelis.
“Israel has been badly victimized, but the truth is if they have an opportunity to relieve the suffering of people who have nowhere to go, that’s what they should do.”
“If they don’t, they’ll be held accountable in ways that may be unfair."
However, loads of conspiracy theorists are questioning whether that was truly Joe Biden on the President's plane.
They believe it's a body double on Air Force One who is wearing a not-so convincing mask.

One said: "This is 1000000% a guy in a mask & not Biden."
Another added: "They've been pretty good up until now making sure he never spends too long in a hot room so the mask will start coming off of his chin. Here the mask is starting to coming loose, it is visible and you can see the bulging in the chin area."
A third wrote: "I guess the person wearing the Biden mask didn't realize it was malfunctioning lmao! An actor wearing a mask!!!!! And they think we're all that stupid lol....NOT! Welcome to the SHOW...the Great Awakening."
People on Twitter/X have pointed at other videos from Biden's trip to the Middle East to highlight the President's face showing odd wrinkles and creases.

Others believe the person on Air Force One has a different eye color to Joe Biden's blue ones.
Okay, it might be time to take off the tinfoil hat for now.
It's worth point out that several Twitter/X accounts have been writing the exact same phrase, which could suggest bots are disseminating the misinformation.
Biden has been plagued with rumors for ages that he uses a body double.

This speculation went into overdrive during the Covid-19 pandemic when he received his coronavirus vaccine.
However, this was widely debunked by fact-checkers who said it definitely was not another person getting the shot.
