President Biden sought to take credit for a cease-fire Thursday between Israel and Hamas, despite reports that it was Egypt that brokered the peace.
Biden, who spoke at the White House, included a sentence in his remarks commending Egyptian officials for their "critical role" in ending the fighting. But he repeatedly emphasized the intensive work he said was done by his own administration.
"Over the last 11 days, I spoke with the prime minister six times. I've also spoken with President Abbas and the Palestinian Authority more the once and part of our intense diplomatic engagement," Biden said, "And I want to also thank secretary of state, the secretary of defense, our national security adviser, and everyone on our team for their incredible efforts to bring this about, this outcome that we're about to see.
"You know, we've held intensive, high-level discussions, hour by hour, literally, Egypt, the Palestinian Authority and other Middle Eastern countries, with an aim of avoiding this sort of prolonged conflict we've seen in previous years when the hostilities have broken out."
Biden vowed to help Israel replenish its Iron Dome system and to work with the Palestinian Authority to rebuild Gaza.
Biden said he’d spoken with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu on the cease-fire and commended him on his decision to bring hostilities to a close.
"The United States fully supports Israel's right to defend itself against indiscriminate rocket attacks from Hamas," Biden said.

The son-of-a-bitch is no good. He is a liar, a cheat, a thief, a thug, and a tyrant. This crosses over several of those.
Bibi just using Biden like the CCP puppet he is.
Yeah terrorists!!!... go back and fix your tunnels now.
Bibi will just watch. He promises!
What a joke.
And a demented, senile, corrupt, retromingent pedophile to boot.
Too bad. I wanted to see Israel pound them every day until all that was left was an ugly memory .
I’d like to see Joe find Israel on a map.
50/50 he can find it.
In Jao BaiDin’s “mind” he DID end the Middle East conflict; EXTRA pudding !!
I guess it wasn’t any of the upcoming Biblical battles? Sooner or later, one of Israel’s enemies will do something that causes them to truly beat their war drums, and go to war until they reach victory and the enemy completely capitulates.
A common trait of weak minded individuals is to take credit for other’s achievements.
Netanyahu and Arab Hamas leader: Well, at least we agree on one thing. We think Biden is a self-serving, egotistical jerk. WE did the ceasefire thing, not him.
Does he even know it's in the Middle East? Does he know where the M.E. is?
Regardless, Israel is a tiny sliver of land in the M.E. The Arabs could give 100 times the real estate to the Palestinian Arabs within the rest of the M.E. without encroaching on existing Arab settlements, and solve the conflict with Israel. Best place would be in Jordan where they were supposed to go last century when TransJordan was divided up (March/April 1921). Jewish national home west of River Jordan in Palestine, and Arabs to east of River Jordan. But Arabs only want to exterminate the Jews from anywhere in the M.E.
How many trolions did he give the paleo simians?
And when this cease fire fails, as it will, will he take the blame? Of course not.
considering Hamas has gone on record stating they will not negotiate with the US, Biden is crazy if he thinks we’re going to buy the US had anything to do with a ceasefire.
Hamas ran out of money again, lobbed Iranian’supplied rockets at Israel and now will sit back and wait for the ‘outpouring’ of ‘international aid’ to ‘rebuild’. Same old game Hamas has played for decades and the ‘international community ‘falls for it every darn time.
So, peace was breaking out in the Mideast when Trump brokered 4 Muslim countries recognizing Israel in 2020. THE UAE, Bahrain, Sudan & Morocco, and air travel opening with another for the first time in years. Liberals, as usual, ignore that kind of an achievement.
Another assault takes place on Israel, and we see the media & liberals lambast Israel for stopping it’s citizens from being killed & otherwise blown up.
And Joe claims he’s the big peacemaker there.
It’s pathetic.
And when this cease fire fails, as it will, will he take the blame? Of course not.
A common trait of weak minded individuals is to take credit for other’s achievements.
...............................................
That’s what all his plagiarism is about.
Ridiculous. Abbas has no say in Gaza.
Wonder if he will take credit for when Hamas breaks the cease? Like we all know that they will do.
