Biden will meet Prime Minister Netanyahu and the Israeli War Cabinet to understand Israel’s plans and goals in the coming days and weeks, White House spokesman John Kirby told reporters on board the government plane Air Force One on Tuesday Way to Tel Aviv.
“Uncomfortable questions”
“He will ask some uncomfortable questions, he will ask them as a friend, as a true friend of Israel, but he will also ask uncomfortable questions.” Kirby declines to specify the types of questions Biden intends to ask. According to Palestinian information, hundreds of deaths are feared as a result of the rocket hitting the hospital. Hamas and Israel blame each other for the rocket strike.

Biden originally wanted to fly on to Amman after the meeting with Netanyahu to meet Jordan’s King Abdullah, Egyptian President Abdel Fattah al-Sisi and Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas – we reported. If Biden does not meet with Abbas or a Palestinian leader while meeting Israelis on Israeli soil, it could undermine his diplomatic message and draw criticism at home and abroad.
