Biden expresses concern over potential Israeli influence on US election ahead of Gaza peace deal
ai generated text
US President Joe Biden made a surprise appearance at a White House press briefing on Friday, during which he expressed frustration with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. Biden claimed that his administration has provided more support to Israel than any previous administration. He also stated that he is unsure whether Netanyahu is using the situation in Gaza to influence the upcoming US election. Some Democrats have expressed concern that Netanyahu is ignoring Biden's calls for a ceasefire and hostage release deal.
Hamas is not there with a deal. There's not a deal in the making, unfortunately.
I don't think you have to be a hopeless cynic to read some of Israel's actions, some of Prime Minister Netanyahu's actions, as connected to the American election.
I think if I were in their shoes, I'd be thinking about other alternatives than striking oil fields.
I'm assuming when they make a decision on how they're going to respond, we will then have a discussion.
No administration has helped Israel more than I have. None. None. None. And I think Bibi should remember that.
But the fact is that they have to be very much more careful about dealing with civilian casualties.
And whether he's trying to influence the election, I don't know, but I'm not counting on that.
The Israelis have not concluded what they are going to do in terms of a strike.
The Israelis have every right to respond to the vicious attacks on them, not just from the Iranians, but from everyone from Hezbollah to Houthis.
