Joe Biden reportedly has told Benjamin Netanyahu that he expects “significant de-escalation today” of the conflict between Israel and its Palestinian attackers. A White House spokesperson stated:
[Biden] wants this to be de-escalated. He wants this to be a sustainable calm. This is what we have been calling for, for the past eight days, and this is what we’re continuing to do.
Does Biden really expect Israel to “de-escalate” while Hamas rockets continue to bombard its farms, suburbs, and cities? Or is his statement for show — an attempt to appease the increasingly strong anti-Israel faction of the Democratic Party?
With Biden, the question is tough to answer and, perhaps, meaningless. This president has no true beliefs about policy. His shifting stances on position after position tell us so.
Maybe the key word in Biden’s “expectation” is “today.” Israel can probably afford to de-escalate for a day while Biden and others seek a cease fire. But if these efforts fail today, as seems likely if not certain, Israel will have to return to its current strategy of bombing Hamas targets until the terrorists’ rocket fire ceases. Israel might even have to up the ante.
Based on what we hear from my wife’s family in Israel, some of whom are very much on the left, Israelis are firmly behind Netanyahu’s efforts to bomb Hamas into temporary submission. These are the voices that matter to Netanyahu.
Biden can (and will) say whatever he finds it convenient to say in the moment. The dogs bark but the caravan moves on.

The Squat...err, the Squad....is leading Biden around by the nose.
Bibi should respond with “well, we expect you to stop funding our enemies!”
“Does Biden really expect Israel to “de-escalate” while Hamas rockets continue to bombard its farms, suburbs, and cities? Or is his statement for show — an attempt to appease the increasingly strong anti-Israel faction of the Democratic Party?”
I would think that is dependent on whether Biden is having a ‘good day’ or a ‘bad day’.
Worth changing my tagline for, the perfect metaphor for Biden.
Bibi: “ Hey, Jo-jo. ‘Sup? ....what’s that? —I can’t...(crackle, crackle)... sorry, Dude, you’re...you’re brea—p, I ca—you s—man? So, any-—....yeah, I’ll just bomb the s#!+ out of them till I can figure out what you’re saying, man...yeah. Buh-bye...”
Time to give Biden the finger and turn up the heat. Let the Dems side with the terrorists. They’re really the same thing.
Perhaps more apt to have Biden click the heels of his magic slippers together. It would take magic to make him relevant.
Now we're talkin', Bibi! You have my full support!
Bibi to Obiden. KMA
Joe Biden is a complete ass! He thinks people here will agree that Israel who was attacked with 3,000 rockets should unilaterally stop trying to dissuade Hamas from attacking them. Remember, there was no provocation for Hamas to fire even the first rocket. Only a dipstick would buy that Hamas would let up the rocket fire if Israel stops retaliating. Hamas must first show that they are done with the rocket barage. Then maybe Israel will talk.
Bibi to Joe: MYOFB
Before I started reading, I asked myself the question from third paragraph. I have no clue why this doesn’t occur to Biden. Probably all the anti-Semites in his administration.
Basement Gunner Joe let’s Bibi have it.
Netanyahu’s reply: “Oh yeah??!! Well, wish in one hand and shi- No, WAIT!!! Don’t REALLY do it!!”
He must think he is dealing with Ukraine.
Bombs away, Bibi!
translation he made a SECRET DEAL WITH SOMEONE.
Several times, to the chagrin of Doc Jill.
I hope Bibi privately tells Biden to FO before completely ignoring hiden Joe’s request.....then publicly thanking Joe for his support.
This would send Joe over the top and force him to publicly denounce Israel, letting everyone know he is a member of the squad, but with a dick.
Bibi to Bidet: up yours.
