“Israel Would Stand Alone”: PM Netanyahu Refuses To Bow Down To Biden’s Warning

PM Benjamin Netanyahu while outrightly refusing to bow down to the US warning of withholding arms if Jerusalem continues with the Rafah invasion, stated on Thursday that the US threat would not prevent Israel from going ahead with its offensive in Gaza. Going against the wishes of its strongest ally, the US, PM Netanyahu stated that if needed, Israel would “stand alone” and “fight with fingernails”. Meanwhile, drawing a comparison between Joe Biden and pro-Hamas protestors who demonstrated in large numbers across the US campuses, Trump accused the US President of “supporting the terrorist group, Hamas”.
