Behind the scenes: Biden hasn’t spoken to Netanyahu in the 20 days since a tense Dec. 23 call, which a frustrated Biden ended with the words: “This conversation is over.” They had spoken almost every other day in the first two months of the war.
Why it matters: Since the Oct. 7 Hamas attack 100 days ago, Biden has given Israel his full backing, with unprecedented military and diplomatic support, even while taking a political hit from part of his base in an election year.
Plausible. Furious but not at what some gullible libs will assume. More like he’s upset that Bibi hasn’t shown enough gratitude and explained how much fun he’s having with all the military aid landing wrapped in ribbons.
He’s mad Bibi isn’t lying through his teeth to give him plausible deniability and as a result is getting blamed for supporting a genocide just because he said he would support rhe genocide unconditionally
