A billboard in a western Jerusalem neighborhood that once thanked U.S. President Joe Biden for his support has been changed to criticize Biden for pressuring Israel not to pursue Hamas terrorists and win the war in Gaza.
As Breitbart News noted in October, shortly after the outbreak of war:
On Emek Refaim — a street in the heart of the old German Colony, an area popular with Americans — a billboard thanking President Joe Biden for his support was the only face in sight Friday evening. Families gathered quietly for the Sabbath meal; some walked through the streets, the mothers pushing strollers, the fathers carrying rifles slung across their shoulders. There are fears that some of the Hamas terrorists who infiltrated Israel on Oct. 7 had lain low, and could strike again at any moment.
Biden had visited Israel just a few days before, the first U.S. president to visit Israel during wartime.

Why ANYONE would create a billboard thanking Biden for anything is beyond me. Biden never gave a crap about Israel, can you imagine Biden holding weapons for Ukraine, of course not, since Ukraine is paying the big guy so much money
Hey! C’mon, man!
President Retard is a coward
you don;t thank someone who’s backstabbed you
Billboard in Jerusalem thanks Biden.
Why was there ever a billboard in Jerusalem thanking Biden?
Now it says “ Thanks For Nothing Shmuck”,
Put your trust in Biden and kiss your ass goodbye.
The poster was for the benefit of American visitors, and to display public gratitude for American aid hopefully to be coming in the future. I doubt that one Israeli in ten has any illusions about Biden. Israelis, like the Kurds, can afford to trust no one but themselves. Still, they have to play the ingratiation game to insure his favor in the future. Now they see how far that has got them.
