Biden appears determined to enable Hamas to survive.
“Biden warns Netanyahu against escalation as risk of regional war grows,” by Barak Ravid, Axios, August 2, 2024 (thanks to The Religion of Peace):
President Biden privately demanded in a “tough” call Thursday that Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu stop escalating tensions in the region and move immediately toward a Gaza hostage and ceasefire deal, two U.S. officials told Axios….
Behind the scenes: At the end of the meeting with Netanyahu in the Oval office last Thursday, Biden became emotional, raised his voice and told Netanyahu he needs to reach a Gaza deal as soon as possible, three Israeli officials with knowledge of the meeting told Axios.
“Biden raised his voice and said he wants a deal reached within a week to two weeks,” a senior Israeli official said.
“Biden told Netanyahu that a hostage and ceasefire deal is the most important thing right now,” the Israeli official added.
Shortly after, when the president and the Israeli prime minister met with the families of the American hostages held in Gaza, Biden doubled down on his message to Netanyahu.
“We are at an inflection point … we need to do everything to end the war and reach regional stability, even if the deal is not perfect. Hamas wants the deal right now. It might change,” Biden told Netanyahu, according to the notes of one of the participants.
What they’re saying: “I had a very direct meeting with the prime minister today. Very direct,” Biden told reporters on Thursday night about his call with Netanyahu.
Biden said there is a basis for a ceasefire and stressed Netanyahu should “move on it now.”
When asked if the assassination of Hamas leader Haniyeh has ruined the chances for a deal, Biden said: “It hasn’t helped.”
Nice comparison, EvRe. Bibi has just reason not to want to be tied too tightly to Biden, who recently orchestrated yet ANOTHER great military and diplomatic failure (this time, in Africa):

When you raise your voice you have already lost the argument. Biden can yell all he wants. It’s the impotent rage of one who has been politically and personally emasculated.
Bibi has a military that is more effective, more nimble, has better intelligence capability, and a force more determined to win than the entire US military under the US Commander in Chief of the DEI forces. Biden’s military advertises employment openings using transvestites, and Biden’s military is focused on green energy. Bibi’s military is currently waging a winning battle against a genocidal foe.
Biden is demented. Bibi is not.

Actually the opposite.
In his heart Biden may be a friend of Israel.
But his heart is not in charge of the show.
The interests of the Democratic party, and of the globalist elites behind them are in charge.
Biden is not our friend but theoretically our ally. It is always better when an ally is really also a friend, not just theoretically. Now the US government is proud to announce that they are sending some of the smaller bombs they promised. I guess those bombs, when they penetrate the earth, are absolutely going to hit mostly women and children, just like in all the other cases, rather than the booby-trapped tunnels they are intended for where no women or children are to be found. I guess Biden deserves a round of slow clapping applause.
