President Biden will travel to Israel on Wednesday to “reaffirm the United States’ solidarity” with the Jewish nation — more than a week after Hamas terrorists slaughtered over 1,400 people, including at least 30 Americans, and took dozens of hostages to the Gaza Strip.
Biden’s expected trip was announced Monday night by Secretary of State Antony Blinken after the top US diplomat met for nearly eight hours with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.
“On Wednesday, President Biden will visit Israel,” Blinken said during a short press briefing. “He’s coming here at a critical moment for Israel, for the region and for the world.”
The 80-year-old president’s visit will come as the Israeli military prepares to invade Gaza to clear out Hamas.
Biden’s trip will serve multiple purposes — first and foremost, “the president will reaffirm the United States’ solidarity with Israel and our ironclad commitment to its security,” Blinken said.

Updated: Jordan and Egypt Cancel Summit With Joe Biden
Joe Biden was literally in the air, flying toward the region when Jordan’s King Abdullah cancelled the summit between Egyptian President al-Sisi, Abdullah and Biden.
Now tell me again, why Joe Biden is going to Israel? What strategic value is within this visit?
Yesterday I provided some of my own thoughts on the motives. “The people behind Joe Biden are sending him to Israel for (1) part of a rebranding effort; and (2) to impede Netanyahu and buy time for Hamas.”
Today, Caroline Glick gives some troubling information about: (a) the White House demanding an invitation; and (b) Anthony Blinken threatening Israeli President Benjamin Netanyahu to hold back the ground invasion or the U.S. will not allow munitions and bombs Israel needs for resupply.
President Joe Biden landed in Israel Wednesday morning as he demonstrated the United States’ commitment to the Middle Eastern country devastated by the Hamas terrorist attack that claimed over 1,400 Israeli lives.
Biden previously said his trip was “to stand in solidarity in the face of Hamas’s brutal terrorist attack and to consult on next steps.”
Upon arrival at Ben Gurion Airport, Biden was greeted by Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and President Isaac Herzog.
As Biden stepped off of Air Force One, Netanyahu pulled the commander-in-chief into a tight embrace.
