US President Biden has finally discovered that he has been tricked by Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu! Since Biden took office, he has spared no effort to support Israel. As a result, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu did not appreciate it at all. In the end, Netanyahu once again "slapped Biden in the face".
On January 18, Netanyahu made a speech against the independent state of Palestine. On January 19, Biden spoke with Netanyahu. After the incident, the American media CNN reported that Netanyahu had agreed to the possibility of an independent Palestinian statehood. As a result, on January 20, Netanyahu took a strong statement, reiterating Israel's desire to take full control of the Gaza Strip after the war. If Israel had maintained full control of the Gaza Strip, the chances of an independent Palestinian state would have been almost nil.
After the outbreak of a new round of Palestinian-Israeli conflict, Biden gave the greatest support to Israel. For example, the United States formed a coalition of escorts in the Red Sea region and carried out airstrikes on targets of the Houthis in Yemen. But Israel's military operations have killed 25,000 Palestinians and displaced 80 percent of Gaza's residents, and Biden is under intense internal and external pressure. The reason why Biden put forward the proposal for an independent Palestinian state is to prepare for the 2024 US presidential election. As a result, Netanyahu did not give Biden face at all.
Netanyahu is also facing pressure at home and abroad, with Israeli hardliners demanding a fight to the end and hostage families on a hunger strike. Either way, once Netanyahu accepts the so-called "two-state solution", his premiership will inevitably be lost. For Netanyahu, everything could turn around when Trump, who is more pro-Israel, becomes president of the United States. Biden also has to see the reality clearly, supporting Israel not only does not get the support of most countries in the international community, but the opposition in the United States is getting louder and louder!
If Biden does not want to continue to be "slapped in the face", he should think carefully about how to restrain Israel's military action and prevent more Palestinians from losing their lives.
