The Israeli PM's rejection of Washington's efforts shows the growing disagreement between the two allies.

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu says he has told the United States that he opposes the establishment of a Palestinian state once the conflict in Gaza comes to an end.

In a news conference, a defiant Mr Netanyahu vowed to press on with the offensive in Gaza “until complete victory”: the destruction of Hamas and return of the remaining Israeli hostages, adding that it could take “many more months”.

With almost 25,000 Palestinians killed in Gaza, according to the Hamas-run health ministry, and 85% of the strip’s population displaced, Israel is under intense pressure to rein in its offensive and engage in meaningful talks over a sustainable end to the war.

      And the more war crimes he does while Biden blindly supports him, the more likely he is to get Trump. Since Biden seems to be pathologically incapable of actual pushback there are no downsides to Bibi for just being as bad as possible. He gets to pursue his lebensraum while also helping elect the US fascist he prefers.

        I feel like this is how the US will lose it’s relevancy in the world and finally fall. An obese orange clown and a dictator that’s 2nd to Hitler.

      No he isn’t lmao. He’s already openly committing genocide while Biden is in power.

      And Biden isn’t doing anything about this except trying to give Netanyahu 15 Billion taxpayer dollars as fast as possible.

      Democrats coping hard.

          Vote third party then. If everyone stopped crawling into a hole and actually jumped ship this entire dilemma could’ve solved.

            And if everyone stopped consuming, capitalism would be no more.

            Such a great solution, why hasn’t anyone come up with it prior?

            Our system is not setup to have viable third parties. We would need to have all states implement something other than first past the post for presidential elections. Currently only Alaska and Maine do ranked choice for their presidential elections. Feel free to advocate that in your state but until that changes on a significant scale (more than for 7 electoral votes), a third party presidential candidate is not an option.
