Biden and the MIDDLE EAST - Biden Era

The WHITE House:  A readout of a telephone conversation between President Biden and Israeli PM Netanyahu, " President Biden spoke with Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu today. The two leaders had a detailed discussion on the state of events in Gaza, Israel’s progress in degrading the capabilities of Hamas and other terrorist elements, and ongoing diplomatic efforts by regional governments and the United States. The President conveyed to the Prime Minister that he expected a significant de-escalation today on the path to a ceasefire."

Lets Get Real:

The Biden OVAL is getting pressure from the LIBERAL LEFT of the Democratic Party, the left is very much pro Palestinian at the expense of Israel.   The Oval understand if it loses the House or the Senate next year, the Biden Presidency is OVER, really over.  Thus this blog expects that Biden was very firm with the Israeli PM, but the PM has answered him back, you either destroy the enemy or you weaken them, thus they back off for some time.  Also the Republicans in the US Congress on the whole supports Israel, thus the left do not have the numbers to make much of an impression.  Of course they could run a LEFT candidate as a spoiler in 2024, US politics never ends, just goes in to another cycle.

The LIBERAL LEFT and Israel - Israel - Gaza Update

BBC News: Reports in its 8.05pm post the following, " Democratic lawmakers in the US have launched a last-minute push to block the sale of weapons to Israel as they call for a ceasefire in Gaza....But the resolution is expected to fail, because Democratic leaders in the legislative chamber have expressed support for the sale.  "

Lets Get Real:

This is the dangerous LIBERAL LEFT of the Democrats, they tend to come from very LIBERAL States and thus are not under threat to losing their Seat in Congress.   The Democratic Leadership from Biden in the Oval and Speaker Pelosi know that they can not afford to lose any more SEATS in the 2022 Mid Terms, thus they are supporting ISRAEL, Israel has stated, that either your destroy the enemy or make them hurt so much that they request a ceasefire, the White House will not allow the US Congress to block arms sale to Israel, also the Biden Administration does not want it to look like the OVAL is taking the side of Hamas of the democratic Israel.  The Israel - Gaza fight has  a few more days to go.
