Biden Is Lying Against Us – Israeli Prime Minister Tells AIPAC Leadership
By Daily Tab24.
Israel-Hamas war is taking a significant toll on US President Joe Biden and he is finding it difficult to dictate to Israel. Since the war began in October 7, Biden’s rating has plummeted to a record low. A recent poll shows he is trailing his Republican rival in a couple of battleground States. Joe Biden is now finding it hard to accept, and appears to be deliberately attacking the government of Israel.
Initially, Joe Biden internally communicated to his government staff to avoid publicly criticizing Israel, as he doesn’t want the kind of fraught relationship Democrats under Obama had with Israel. Democrats enjoy most of left-wing votes and liberals, due to the policies and ideology the party was built on, and everything happening in Gaza Strip seems to negate the ideology.
In Washington, accusations have been directed against Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. They have even called for the ouster of Netanyahu in what could be best described as desperate pressure to force Netanyahu to listen to Joe Biden.
Speaking to the leadership of AIPAC in Israel, Prime Minister Netanyahu said the narratives from Washington concerning the handling of the war in Gaza is “deliberate false”. The Prime minister noted that Washington is well aware of what is going on and the importance of dismantling all the Hamas battalions wherever they are. He accused Biden of prioritizing domestic politics over the existential threat Hamas posed to Israel.
“They know it’s false, But that falsehood is perpetrated and it’s wrong” the Prime Minister said of the narrative in Washington by Democrats Senate leader, who opined that Prime Minister Benjamin surrounded himself with extreme right ministers who lie and promote the policy of extremism.
The Prime Minister also hinted on how Washington is lying that his policies and decision regarding the war are influenced by local politics and his quest to remain in power. He expressly denied the insinuation and questioned who is the culprit within the context of local politics. He further insinuated that Joe Biden is the one being driven by local politics, hence his administration is unduly pressuring Israel to abandon the war without achieving the aims of the war.
Donald Trump did accuse Democrats of abandoning Israel because of their hunt for votes. Saying that the Senate leader saw “marches” (protesters) and felt abandoning Israel for the votes of the thousands of protesters was better off.
Centrally, it is believed that Joe Biden’s policies in the Middle East are now all about salvaging his poor rating as a result of the war.
“We have to stand together and win this war. We have to stand together here and we have to stand together there” Netanyahu said of Washington and AIPAC.
Reports have said that Biden is angry with Netanyahu and his public criticism of the Israeli leader confirms the reports. Prime Minister Benjamin is insisting on completing the war to achieve the aims of the war while Biden is determined to end the war prematurely to salvage his chance of re-election.
Biden is desperately pursuing six weeks ceasefire for the release of hostages and has rebuked Israel’s plan of invading Rafah. He has held back Israeli’s invasion with the promise of securing the release of hostages, even making unfounded claim that ceasefire has been agreed in the past.
Too many lies against Netanyahu who seems not be shaken by the accusations from Washington.
