From Virtual Jerusalem: Biden Forbids IDF Rafah Operation, Setting Stage for Showdown with Bibi
"In first call with Netanyahu in a month, US President reneges on previous solemn commitment and rejects any large-scale IDF move into Rafah under any conditions, setting up an impending full frontal collision between the US and Israel.
"President Joe Biden has shown what his word is worth, moving the goalposts dramatically on the US ally, undermining what Israelis across the political spectrum see as an essential last step to defeating Hamas."
--------------------
The absolute gall. Biden is a disaster as President of his own country, yet he feels he can tell Bibi how to conduct a war he didn't start. All to appease his constituents.
Andrea Widburg at American Thinker feels the same way:
Biden is throwing Israel under the bus to appease genocidal antisemitic voters
"It’s been apparent to anyone who isn’t in total denial that rabid antisemitism now lives at the very heart of the Democrat party. October 7 proved that it’s completely taken over the Democrats’ ideological nesting grounds and incubators (aka academia). Worse, antisemitism’s political face—that is, anti-Israel policies—is now an integral part of Biden’s administration. Biden needs the votes of the Israel haters, which means he’s gotten into bed with, and is forcing America into bed with, people who are indistinguishable from the Nazis at their most virulent.
"It’s old news that Biden is trying to force Israel’s Prime Minister, Benjamin Netanyahu, out of office. It’s also old news that Sen. Chuck Schumer openly called for Bibi’s ouster and that Biden approved of that demand.
"For those who note that presidents have called for regime change in the past, here’s the rule of a principled American government: As president, you’re allowed to call for regime change in nations that are your geopolitical enemies and have non-democratically elected governments. However, you’re not allowed to call for regime change in an allied country that has true democratic elections and that is in the middle of an existential war.
"The Biden attack on Israel, though, goes beyond a war of words. The administration is actively trying to destroy Israel’s ability to wage war."

Talk about chutzpah!
