Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu says he intends to press ahead with an invasion of the city of Rafah on the southern border of the Gaza Strip in defiance of United States President Joe Biden, who has warned such an offensive would be a “red line.”

Without naming them, Netanyahu claimed he had the tacit support of several Arab leaders for driving ahead with the onslaught against Hamas.

Israel’s prime minister also doubled down on his rejection of thepossibility of a Palestinian state — a topic that pits Israel against most of the rest of the world.

"The positions that I espouse are supported by the overwhelming majority of Israelis who say to you after October 7: ‘We don’t want to see a Palestinian state,’” he said.

      But doesn’t it make you feel good that Biden pretends to care about the babies being killed with his bombs? Trump doesn’t pretend to care at all.
