Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu reportedly told President Biden that a ground operation in the Gaza Strip is necessary after Hamas launched deadly strikes on his country.
The remark, made in a phone call between the two leaders, came as Biden raised concerns about Israeli hostages in the Gaza Strip if a ground operation should commence, three Israeli and U.S. sources briefed on the call told Axios.
"We have to go in. We can't negotiate now," Netanyahu told the president, according to the outlet.
Netanyahu told Biden that Israel has no choice but to respond with force since a country cannot display weakness in the volatile Middle East, Axios also reported, citing the sources.

Keep the faith. FJB is nearing the end of his presidenting tenure.
Thousands of cheap drones overhead dropping grenades with a ~15m kill radius also dramatically complicates things. The bunched up squad sized elements moving from building to building and stacked up on entry become more perilous than ever.
Absolutely Agree.
That will work. Israel supplies water and electricity to Gaza. Additionally, they allow Gaza people to work in Israel, and allow transport of food and goods into Gaza.
Blockade Gaza. Turn off the electricity, stop water flows into Gaza, and stop the shipment of food and other supplies into Gaza. Stop the employment of Gaza people in Israel. And finally, block the sea ports. Until Hamas surrenders and gives up the Israeli hostages. If Hamas refuses, it's on them.
Gaza, and everyone it, are trapped. Their only endgame that includes any kind of survival is to broaden the war quickly…they have to somehow make this war much bigger than Gaza. Otherwise, Gaza is dead. So watch out in the next week for someone - Iran being the most likely - to escalate this on a very large scale.
Turkey has just announced they are preparing humanitarian aid for Gaza.
And the Israeli navy should block Turkey from landing any aid. But allow Turkey to evacuate Gaza people to Turkey. Take them all, makes it easier to clean up the Gaza pigsty.
I so agree. At this point Israel is going to need to do the RIGHT THING.. Wipe Gaza off the map....
Golden Weasel is gone? Nice. That troll lived under the bridge here way too long.
7-8 American hostages...can you believe that number?
9 Americans reported dead....can you believe that number?
Announcing that would be foolish as it would justify Israel destroying them. More likely a sneak attack first strike on Tel Aviv and the most prominent military facilities.
Retaliation via submarine. Teheran, Qom, and, depending on the situation, Mecca, Moscow, DC.
No rational person around the world is.
IF THEY ARE ALIVE—THEY ARE STILL A SERIOUS PROBLEM
I've said that about Ukraine from day one. Prisoners have to be guarded, housed and fed, a waste of manpower and resources. Kill 'em all. Goes double for Islamist murderers invading Israel.
9 Americans reported dead....can you believe that number?
I have always believed the Mainstream Media Journalists

Mecca should have been a smoking radioactive ruin by noon on 9/12/01.
You think he really spoke with dementia joe? I don’t for a minute.
Netanyahus head must roll. And the Mossad incompetents that didn’t pick it up.
All politicians who support gun control need to be driven from office. And the people who elected them need to be permanently banned from voting. As should happen to RATs here.
