President Joe Biden, expressing concern over Israel’s actions in Gaza, urged Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to alter his government’s hardline stance. At a fundraising event for his 2024 campaign, Biden highlighted the need for Israel to eventually accept a Palestinian state. This comes amidst Israel’s bombing in Gaza, causing numerous Palestinian civilian casualties and diminishing international support.
Netanyahu, recognizing U.S. support against Hamas, noted differences with the U.S. on post-conflict plans. Biden criticized the conservative nature of Netanyahu’s government, particularly addressing National Security Minister Itamar Ben-Gvir.
U.S. National Security Adviser Jake Sullivan is set to discuss the Gaza conflict’s timeline with Israeli officials. While the U.S. backs Israel’s military actions against Hamas, there is growing concern about Palestinian civilian deaths. Biden plans to meet with families of Americans taken hostage by Hamas in a recent attack. Sullivan blamed Hamas for violating a truce, affirming Israel’s right to defend itself.
