In some of his strongest public comments to date acknowledging criticism of Israel's retaliatory campaign in Gaza, President Joe Biden on Tuesday said that the country was starting to lose support around the world due to what he said was "the indiscriminate bombing that takes place."
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu had a "tough decision to make," Biden said during a fundraising event, while noting that Netanyahu understands that "he's got to make some moves to strengthen [the Palestinian Authority] -- strengthen it, change it, move it."
"You cannot say there's no Palestinian state at all in the future. And that's going to be the hard part," he added, according to a transcript of his remarks at a closed-door reception in Washington.

“Biden’s puppeteers put their hand in the sock.”
“indiscriminate bombing” is the leftists smear on Israel. He’s a jerk.
You’re right. Barack Hussein and his minions are the ones who are actually in control. They are effectively running our country. And they hate Israel.
I would prefer dead. Otherwise, they will be released, at the next hostage crisis.
If it were true and he supported Israel, he would no state this publicly. If it were not true and he did not support Israel, this is what he would say. I’m beginning to believe he does not support Israel.
And Biden knows this how?
Joe Biden on Tuesday said that Israel was “starting to lose support”
due to what Biden said was Israel’s “indiscriminate bombing.”
Hypocrite Biden should just shut up.
Was that “indiscriminate bombing” he criticized Israel for happening before or after Biden calculatedly avoided Congress, to approve the emergency sale to Israel of nearly 14,000 rounds of tank ammunition worth more than $106 million dollars?
Yes, Israel has intensified its military operations in the southern Gaza Strip. And it came as Joe Biden requested a nearly $106 billion aid package for more bombing in Ukraine, and Israel.
Some Democratic lawmakers have even spoken of making the proposed billions in American assistance to Israel contingent on concrete steps by the Netanyahu government to reduce civilian casualties in Gaza during the ground incursion.

The truth is most of the Arab world except Iran is secretly cheering Israel on with it’s war on Hamas.
“Biden says Israel’s military campaign is starting to lose support”
Not as fast as you, Joe.
He is so full of himself.
The. Worst. President. Ever. And the Democrats own it; lock, stock, and barrel.
Biden just sees his poll numbers dwindling and that’s all he cares about. But it’s true Israel’s reputation is now seriusly damaged. I’ve supported Israel in the past but the indiscriminate bombing of civilians has turned me off. They need to dump Netanyahu if they know what’s good for them.
As far as resurrecting the Palestinian Authority that’s just a joke and unlikely to happen. They’ve got a serious mess over there and now Netanyahu wants to engage Hezbollah and expand this to a regional war which could very well cause Iran to engage too. This will be another mistake on his part. If this war goes regional it could very well be the end of Israel.
Meanwhile, in Hell Tojo is very upset. “Why didn’t FDR back off like Biden did?”
No. Loss of support is in Biden & Cabal.
It’s stupid of Biden to pressure Israel into “negotiating,” since Israel
has munitions and weaponry to destroy Hamas entirely on its own.
There’s Biden’s 2023 arms handout to Israel:
<><>57,000 155mm artillery shells
<><>more than 5,000 Mk82 unguided or “dumb” bombs,
<><>more than 5,400 Mk84 2,000 pound warhead bombs,
<><>around 1,000 GBU-39 small diameter bombs,
<><>approximately 3,000 JDAMs, which turn unguided bombs into guided “smart” bombs,
<><>BLU-109 bunker busters w/ 2,000 pound warheads designed to penetrate concrete shelters.
There’s Obama’s $38 billion deal that covers fiscal years 2019-2028 that includes:
<><>-annual US payments to Israel of $3.3 billion in “military financing,”
<><>-$500 million a year for Israel’s missile defense operations in the Negev, a foreign aid first,
<><>-A phasing-out of Israel’s decades-long “special arrangement”
<><>ie. Israel used 26.3% of US aid on its own global defense industry (not on US-made weapons).
<><>-Eliminates Israel using some 13% of US aid to buy military fuel.
<><>-will allow Israel to update “the lion’s share” of its fighter aircraft,
<><>includes purchasing additional F-35 Joint Strike Fighters.
<><>Israel is to initially receive thirty-three F-35 aircraft,
<><>the first two F-35’s will be delivered in December.
The (a) weaponry build-up from Obama 2018 into 2028, (b) follows the $30 billion weaponry deal Israel signed in 2007, which expires at the end of fiscal 2018, and (c) a systematic buildup of Israeli arms, like this one in 2015. (one of many requests).
