Biden says Netanyahu must 'change' amid growing US dissent with Israel war

2023-12-13

[Washington Examiner] Biden, speaking to Democratic donors at a fundraiser in Washington, D.C., said the United States would continue to provide Israel support in its efforts to root out Hamas from Gaza but that he warned Netanyahu about waning public support for Israel's bombing campaigns among voters.

"Bibi's got a tough decision to make," Biden told the group Tuesday. "This is the most conservative government in Israel's history."

The president added that Israel is losing support in the U.S. and other countries as civilian casualties mount in Gaza.

"I think he has to change, and with this government, this government in Israel is making it very difficult for him to move," he continued.

Biden's remarks Tuesday mark his greatest departure from supporting Netanyahu's military campaign as Democratic voters and lawmakers pressure him to end the fighting in Gaza.

Biden and top officials, including National Security Council spokesman John Kirby and White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre, have all reiterated calls for a two-state solution after the fighting ends.

#9 Shambling, Cartoon Stage-Prop reads prepared text and MSM Propaganda Shills report it as a Presidential statement. The farce that is the current Ass-ministration continues while at least 5,000 illegals invade our nation each and every day, over 5,500,000 since the Puppet Show was installed.

#7 Biden is under pressure for pretending to support Israel for the purposes of his fake reelection bid. It is 3D chess by a special student.

#6 The dissent is not growing - pure BS. It is getting louder and more violent. Just about time for a righteous smack down.

#5 Oh, come no. Israel, of all countries, can hardly complain of election interference. AIPAC interferes in our elections constantly. No man can become presiddent who does not kiss AIPAC's ring and receive their approval to be elected. One of the reasons Kennedy was assassinated was his desire for them to exert less control over us.

#4 Well, it's nice for once to see US making demands of Israel, instead of the other way around.

Supposedly influence is why we give them such massive financial support. It's what we get "in exchange". Let's see if it works. My bet is on they tell us to go fuck ourselves" but hey, it's worth a try.

#3 Bidet is not in charge of sh*t. The people the deep state has put around him (Blinken, I'm looking at you) are pathetic.

Says a lot about the "deep state."

#1 Given that Biden & Co. were funding Bibi's opposition party (can you say interfering in another nation's politics), why should BiBi care. Deep State is really showing desperation in retaining power short of an outright coup. Other powers can now call the game as domestic politics put many players into checkmate situations.
