Washington, DC – US President Joe Biden has begun a meeting with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu a day after thousands of people protested against the Israeli leader’s visit to the United States capital amid the Gaza war.

US Vice President Kamala Harris, the likely Democratic presidential nominee in November’s election, is also expected to hold talks with Netanyahu on Thursday.

The Biden administration has continued to provide unwavering support to Israel amid the conflict in Gaza, authorising billions of dollars in military aid and providing Israel with key diplomatic backing.

Speaking from the Oval Office, Netanyahu said he “looked forward” to working with Biden during the remainder of his term.

“I look forward to it as well,” Biden responded.

    our 2 party system has been enacting recommendations from project 2025 since 1980; we’re somewhere around 75% so far and that’s not going to stop if we keep voting democrat or republicans. also wholesale extermination of the gazans is already a preventable tragedy that we’re enabling; taking it to a further extreme isn’t going to change that.
