So, That's Why Biden Wants Israel to Scale Down Its War in Gaza
Townhall ^ | 01/26/2024 | Matt Vespa

Posted on 01/26/2024 7:15:10 PM PST by SeekAndFind

Young voters are already frustrated that Joe Biden couldn’t deliver on an actual student loan bailout. Biden didn’t have the votes in Congress to pull off something of that scale, and doing so by executive decree was later deemed constitutionally questionable. He did so on a smaller scale because Joe, like crackhead Hunter, thinks the rules don’t apply to him.

Still, it hasn’t masked the fact that young voters are souring on Joe; they think he’s too old, and now he’s enabling genocide in Gaza. You know there’s no genocide in Gaza. Still, the kiddos and the Muslim voters here think Treblinka 2.0 is unfolding before our very eyes, blinded to the fact that Hamas committed an actual genocidal terrorist attack on October 7, 2023. Israel is killing terrorists. The Palestinian people support Hamas and their attacks. I’m not crying over the death toll.

Nevertheless, Biden dared to ask Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, whose nation experienced the equivalent of a dozen 9/11 attacks in proportion to population, to scale down the war…because it’s hurting his re-election chances (via Axios):

President Biden last week pressed Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to scale down the Israeli military operation in Gaza, stressing he is not in it for a year of war, two U.S. officials told Axios.

Why it matters: Biden's comments during the two leaders' call last Friday reflect the growing U.S. concern about the continuation of the war and the president's desire to see it end long before the November elections.

A Biden adviser told Axios the White House is very concerned about losing young voters, many of whom are opposed to the president's policy on the Gaza war.

A source close to the White House said Biden can't have the war and the growing death toll to continue dominating the news cycle as the elections get closer.

The White House and the Israeli Prime Minister's Office declined to comment. 

[…] 

Zoom in: Biden asked Netanyahu several times for his plan and strategy in Gaza and said he doesn't understand the "end state" the Israeli leader is envisioning for the enclave, the U.S. officials said. 

Netanyahu told Biden that the transition to low-intensity fighting took place in northern Gaza and will happen in the south, but Israel needs more time than it originally thought, the officials added.

Netanyahu also said that Hamas would return if the Israel Defense Forces left Gaza now. 

Israel should ignore Biden, as they’re already doing with the construction of a one-kilometer-wide DMZ along the border. Joe doesn’t know what he’s doing internationally and has a four-decade record to prove it. He has no leverage here because the United States is never going to abandon Israel. We won’t stop shipping arms because that will cost Biden more voters than young people. Netanyahu should still take the calls but play Wordle or something while Biden rambles about how killing Israel and terrorists is hurting his 2024 election chances. 

Biden is weak. Our enemies and allies know it. When someone can’t keep up, keep moving onward. Sorry, Joe. You were never qualified for this job, and you just proved it by begging another country to stop its justified war of self-defense because it could hurt your return to the White House.

Just when you think Biden couldn’t be any any bigger piece of sh-t than he already is.

Just like every other democrat.

To paraphrase a WW2-era joke:

Jews and the bicycles that are hurting Biden’s reelection.

What do the bicycles have to do with Biden’s reelection?

About as much as the Jews.

“It’s Hurting My Re-election Chances”

Perhaps Biden should have considered the above before trying to OVERTHROW the Netanyahu government.

Ceasefire in gaza is good
but ceasefire in the Ukraine is bad (despite 10x more damage and death)

I still think the plan is regime change in Israel.

Joe can’t get the war ‘toned down’ till he gets Netanyahu out.

*****
Netanyahu shouldn’t tell him anything-Biden will just convey it to Hamas!

Unless he feeds Biden false information.

Joe is trading the Jewish Voters for the Trans and Muslim voters. Wait, 88% of US Muslims vote Democrat anyways. Never mind. Schumer is trying to hold on to the Jewish voters and losing badly.

I wish that were true. But America isn’t trustworthy anymore.

Netanyahu can last a while before he'll have to ask Biden for more ammo.

The other guys who's causing a lot of trouble are the Houthis but mostly that's interfering with international commerce and we're not doing much to determine that.

Yessir, Joe, that’s right, the whole world revolves around you ... narcissistic (and demented) monomaniac.

And people actually vote for such a man ... unbelievable.

the IDF can’t wind down anything more than it already has

but leaving that aside,

anyone who has advised Biden that Israel’s defense forces are somehow hindering Biden’s re-election “campaign”... is a fool. Just like when they advised him that opening the US border would help re-elect him. Just like they advised him that closing down America’s self-sufficiency in energy supplies would somehow help his re=election. Just how they advised him to read daily statements siding with the Fakestinian terrorist murder gangs no matter how many more bombs they send into Israeli towns and villages.

Biden is being mis=advised terribly, all politics aside.
He is being handed scripts from the extreme commie/nazi leftists that seized control of the DNC a few years ago and who have effectively run the D party machine ever since.
These are extremely dangerous people. It is so sad that Biden thinks that he has to continue taking their orders. Very sad.
