President Joe Biden upped his criticism of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu role in the Israel-Hamas war but did not indicate any significant changes in U.S. policy toward its Mideast ally. 'I think what he’s doing is a mistake,' Biden said in an interview with Univision that's set to air Tuesday night in response to a question about whether Netanyahu is more concerned about political survival than Israelis’ national interest.
' 'I’ve spoken with everyone from the Saudis to the Jordanians to the Egyptians. They’re prepared to move in,' Biden said. 'They’re prepared to move this food in. And I think there’s no excuse to not provide for the medical and the food needs of those people. It should be done now.' Biden had been critical of Netanyahu before the Israeli airstrike on April 1 that killed seven World Central Kitchen humanitarian workers, but he began taking a harder line after the strike.
