Biden said to tell Netanyahu he cannot support year-long war in Gaza
2024-01-27
Such a good friend to Israel.
[IsraelTimes] US President Biden told Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu during a phone conversation last week that he will not support a year-long war in Gazoo
...Hellhole adjunct to Israel and Egypt's Sinai Peninsula, inhabited by Gazooks. The place was acquired in the wake of the 1967 War and then presented to Paleostinian control in 2006 by Ariel Sharon, who had entered his dotage. It is currently ruled with an iron fist by Hamas with about the living conditions you'd expect. It periodically attacks the Hated Zionist Entity whenever Iran needs a ruckus created or the hard boyz get bored, getting thumped by the IDF in return. The ruling turbans then wave the bloody shirt and holler loudly about oppression and disproportionate response...
, Hebrew media outlet Walla reports.

Citing two anonymous US officials, the report alleges that Biden asked Netanyahu to speed up the transition to low-intensity fighting against Hamas
...a regional Iranian catspaw,...
that would reduce harm to civilians.

Biden reportedly told Netanyahu that he does not understand what Israel’s strategy for ending the war is, and pressed him to provide an answer as to what the plan is for the day after the war ends.

In response to the Walla report, Netanyahu’s office says, "Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu appreciates President Biden’s support and made it clear in his conversation with him that Israel is determined to continue the war until all its goals are completed."

#4  It is hard to support a year-long war when you have to pee on the hour. However, short war *is* better than long war. So chop, chop! Let's get it going and done with.

#3  I doubt "Biden" said anything other than what flavor of ice cream he wanted.
