Israel and the U.S. are discussing a possible visit by President Biden to Israel later this week, three Israeli and U.S. officials confirmed on Sunday.
Why it matters: A Biden visit would be both a show of support for Israel amid the war with Hamas and a message to Iran and Hezbollah not to join the fighting.
Behind the scenes: The Israeli officials said Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu invited Biden to Israel during their phone call on Saturday.
- Israeli Channel 12 first reported the invitation.
- A U.S. official said a possible visit to the region is being considered, but no decision has been made.
- The Israeli Prime Minister's Office declined to comment.
- White House National Security Council spokesperson Adrienne Watson told Axios: "We have no new travel to announce."
“I'm thinking this is a BAD idea. It's an active war zone and Biden is an old man with dementia who shuffles and couldn't jump fast enough to get into a bomb shelter.”
YES! Send him PLEASE! Pretty please!!!!
At this point, I’m ready to deal with Kamala. It would only be a year, and it would ensure they don’t get re-elected. I’ll take a cackling clown over a dementia ridden corrupt mob boss.

There are some "things" that must be said in person, regardless of how sophisticated the available communications systems might be.
Things people wouldn't want to think about, not to mention, hear.

All metrics of Biden's performance are sub 30% approval.
Methinks he'll take any opportunity he can.
