Biden takes a tougher

stance on Israel’s
‘indiscriminate

bombing’ of Gaza

WASHINGTON (AP) — President Joe Bi-
den on Tuesday warned that Israel was
losing international support because of
its “indiscriminate bombing” of Gaza,
speaking out in unusually strong lan-
guage as the United Nations neared a
vote on demanding a cease-fire in the
Israel-Hamas war.
“Israel’s security can rest on the United
States, but right now it has more than
the United States. It has the European
Union, it has Europe, it has most of the
world supporting them,” Biden said to
donors during a fundraiser Tuesday.
“They’re starting to lose that support
by indiscriminate bombing that takes
place,” he said.
The president said he thought Prime
Minister Benjamin Netanyahu under-
stood, but he wasn’t so sure about the
Israeli war cabinet. President Joe Biden speaks at a Hanukkah reception in the East Room of the White House in Washington, Monday, Dec.
