Netanyahu and Biden spar over Israel-Gaza war support
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and US President Joe Biden are engaged in a heated debate over the ongoing conflict between Israel and Hamas in Gaza. The two leaders have differing opinions on the level of support that the US should provide to Israel in its efforts to defend itself against rocket attacks from Hamas.
Netanyahu has called on the US to fully back Israel in its military actions in Gaza, stating that Israel has the right to defend itself against terrorist threats. He has criticized Biden for not expressing strong enough support for Israel, accusing him of being too lenient towards Hamas.
On the other hand, Biden has urged for a ceasefire in the conflict, expressing concern over the civilian casualties in Gaza. He has called for a de-escalation of the violence and a path towards a lasting peace agreement between Israel and the Palestinians.
The disagreement between Netanyahu and Biden highlights the complexities of the Israel-Palestine conflict and the challenges of navigating US foreign policy in the region. It remains to be seen how this dispute will impact the US-Israel relationship and the prospects for peace in the Middle East.
