Israeli Prime Minister Bibi Netanyahu on Sunday held a telephone conversation with US President Joe Biden, understood to be the first direct communication between the two leaders since Netanyahu came to power late last year.
Netanyahu apprised Biden of the latest developments concerning the terrorist attack that took place today in the West Bank town of Huwara earlier in the day, in which an Israeli citizen was shot and seriously wounded by a Palestinian terrorist. The attack took place in full view of the Israeli man’s wife, sending her into a panic attack.
The US president called on “all sides to take urgent, collaborative steps to enhance security coordination, condemn all acts of terrorism, and maintain the viability of a two-state solution,” according to a readout released by the White House.
The Israeli leader affirmed that the Jewish state will continue to act everywhere against the perpetrators and architects of terrorism.
The conversation focused on the Iranian nuclear threat and expanding the circle of peace.
Regarding legal reform, Netanyahu told the Democrat leader that Israel was and will be a strong and vibrant democracy. Finally, he thanked US leader for his unwavering commitment to Israel’s security.
Biden “underscored his belief that democratic values have always been, and must remain, a hallmark of the U.S.-Israel relationship, that democratic societies are strengthened by genuine checks and balances, and that fundamental changes should be pursued with the broadest possible base of popular support.” –I24 News
Both sides both sides both sides both sides both sides both sides both sides both sides both sides both sides both sides both sides both sides both sides. President Biden is correct. Susan Rice is correct. Kristen Gillabrand is correct. The Israeli government defending their very lives is just as bad as an Arab terrorist murdering an innocent Jew. Equivocating has become the norm of the anti semitic democrat party. At the behest of Obama, I started this.
Commenter #1 is so right! Well said.
Actors telling each other that all sides must condemn all sides.
