Biden accuses Netanyahu of broken promises in memoir
Former US President Joe Biden, in his memoir 'Promise Me, America', criticizes Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu for making promises he did not keep and prioritizing political survival over Israel's interests.
Former US President Joe Biden opens an account with Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu in his new memoir, "Promise Me, America," accusing him of making promises he never intended to keep, repeatedly ignoring US administration demands to reduce civilian harm in Gaza, and prioritizing his own personal political interests over Israel's welfare. In excerpts from the book revealed by CNN, Biden describes a pattern in which Netanyahu promised to change his conduct, only for another military operation to follow in which civilians were killed. "Bibi had no problem making promises he had no ability, or intention, to keep," Biden writes. The article also cites additional books by senior Biden administration officials, including Brett McGurk and Phil Gordon, which reveal sharp confrontations with Netanyahu over the war in Gaza and the hostage issue. Additionally, Biden attacks senior members of his own party, Nancy Pelosi and Chuck Schumer, for pressuring him to drop out of the presidential race, describing the sense of betrayal he felt.
