Joe Biden’s advisers believe the United States president does not want to bow out of the November election before Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s trip to Washington this week, as Biden is unwilling to give Netanyahu “the satisfaction” given the two leaders’ tensions over the war in Gaza, The New York Times reported on Friday.
The report, citing several unnamed people close to Biden, came after the Axios news site on Friday cited top Democrats as saying Biden had resigned himself to the pressure on him to quit, and could bow out as soon as this weekend.
But advisers say that Netanyahu’s impending visit could draw out the process of Biden pulling out of the race, with the president unwilling to give Netanyahu the satisfaction, given their strained relations lately over the Gaza war.
US-Israel tensions have simmered in recent months over the civilian toll in Gaza and the shortage of humanitarian aid there; the lack of a tangible plan by Netanyahu for Gaza’s post-war governance; Biden’s withholding arms from Israel over its offensive in Rafah; and Netanyahu’s perceived derailing of talks, mediated in part by the US, to secure a ceasefire and release of hostages held in Gaza. At least one member of Netanyahu’s government has also explicitly endorsed Biden’s rival, former US president Donald Trump, in the upcoming election.

Biden’s entire political career has been driven by arrogance, lies, condescension and spite. I can see no reason he would change now.
This is what the Biden camp is floating to get the hating far left to back of a bit so they can delay pulling out of the race. The longer they stay in the race the better chance they have to stay in it.
O fall of the issues and dilemmas facing this administration, can it actually be his personal anti-Bibi vendetta is the cornerstone to his decision to leave the race or not???
Beyond ridiculous.
“Well, son of a bitch!”
I hope Bibi snubs him.
Rick and Morty?
Yeah...I wish Bibi would find a reason NOT to come.
i hope Net cancels...and calls Trump....
GREAT!! I want a LONGER HUMILIATION for BIDEN!! The LONGER THE BETTER!! Is that a SIN?
I know I would find any reason not to talk with Biden.
Maybe Bibi could claim that he’s not confident that he could be protected while visiting here.
I’m partial to Romans 12:9 - “Abhor that which is evil; cleave to that which is good.”
They are negotiating with Jill as we speak.
Sounds more like an excuse than a reason.
This sentence is a perfect characterization of the entire life and political career of slowjoe.
He is an arrogant, self centered but very petty man, traits that he genetically passed on to his off spring.
At this point in time, slowjoe is barely aware of his own existence and so revenge against Bibi may be one of the thoughts that keep him alive.
It might be above his pay grade.
Captain Queeg just ordered the strawberries served for desert.
Oh, I ABHOR all right!!
It’s only a sin if the sentiment is born of contempt. If you’re hoping he’ll wake up as a result of consequences of his actions and see the Light and repent, that’s not sinful.
That’s my hope for truly pathetic Biden as he nears the end of his earthly life, that he repents and calls upon our Savior.
But it’s also very possible he’s a reprobate, no longer able to determine right from wrong, as his own god. If this is the case, God will take care of that.
