Days after being reported to have called Trump a “sick f**k”, Netanyahu is the latest target of “Alzheimer Joe”

U.S. President Joe Biden is alleged to have disparaged Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu with coarse language, a move that has intensified scrutiny over his diplomatic tact amid escalating Middle East conflicts. According to Politico, insiders assert that Biden referred to Netanyahu as a “bad [expletive] guy” in private exchanges, highlighting the President’s purported frustration with the Israeli leader, who has not given in to his intensifying pressure to make concessions that would endanger Israel’s security.

Politico’s Jonathan Martin says that Biden is trying to talk tough to attract young liberal voters critical of U.S. support for Israel during these tumultuous times. Biden’s skepticism towards Netanyahu, as reported by unnamed sources, underscores a potential rift in the longstanding U.S.-Israel alliance. On the other hand, it may just be a sign of Biden’s worsening dementia.

The White House has countered these allegations, staunchly denying Biden’s use of such language and emphasizing the respectful nature of Biden and Netanyahu’s decades-long relationship. This defense follows prior incidents where Biden’s candid remarks have made headlines, including disparaging comments about former President Donald Trump, whom he called “a sick f**k.”

Biden’s public gestures towards pro-Palestinian constituents, including remarks at the National Prayer Breakfast condemning hate crimes against Arab-Americans, and issusing specious executive orders targeting Israelis living in Judea and Samaria, suggest a nuanced strategy to balance U.S. foreign policy interests. However, this balancing act faces criticism from within his party

The reported cooling of relations between Biden and Netanyahu, highlighted by a significant lapse in communication following disagreements over Palestinian tax revenues, marks a low point in diplomatic interactions between the two leaders. Critiques from figures like Senator Chris Van Hollen, who accuses Netanyahu of dismissiveness towards Biden’s efforts, amplify concerns over the health of U.S.-Israel relations.

As the situation unfolds, the implications of Biden’s alleged comments and the broader U.S. strategy in the Middle East remain focal points of political and diplomatic discourse.ShareSave

Ironically enough, Netanyahu yesterday defended Biden against remarks made by National Security Minister Itamar Ben-Gvir who had argued in an interview with The Wall Street Journal that Donald Trump’s presidency would have been more advantageous for Israel, especially in its current conflict with Hamas, criticizing Biden for focusing on humanitarian aid to Gaza, which he claimed benefits Hamas.

Netanyahu, in a cabinet meeting, expressed his appreciation for the support received from the Biden administration since the war’s outbreak, emphasizing his capability to navigate Israel’s relations with the U.S. and the international community while safeguarding national interests. He made it clear that Israel makes its own decisions, even in instances of disagreement with the U.S.​​​​.

It is well know that senior citizens, as they lose control of their mental faculties, lapse into outbursts of rage, including the use of foul language.
