Title: Opinion Piece in Washington Post Attacks Netanyahu’s Conduct with Biden
In a scathing opinion piece published today in the American “Washington Post,” Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is strongly criticized for his conduct with American President Joe Biden. The article accuses Netanyahu of engaging in a “reckless and unnecessary” fight against Biden, and warns that he may soon learn the price of alienating Israel’s best friend.
The author of the piece, who remains unidentified, asserts that Netanyahu should be seeking to maintain the support of the United States in order to continue the destruction of Hamas, rather than engaging in a confrontational approach with the Biden administration. It is also suggested that Biden could signal his displeasure with Netanyahu’s behavior by not making a big effort to normalize relations between Israel and Saudi Arabia.
The article goes on to compare Netanyahu to historic leaders, specifically Winston Churchill, noting that during World War II, Churchill would often have policy differences with President Franklin D. Roosevelt, but never publicly aired his grievances.
Furthermore, the piece criticizes Netanyahu’s handling of his last year in office, claiming that it has damaged the reputation he worked to build over his previous decades in politics as a strong leader who kept Israel safe.
It is evident that the opinion article takes a strong stance against Netanyahu’s approach to his relationship with Biden, and warns that it may result in serious consequences for Israel’s security and international relations.
