In 2024 global leaders including Joe Biden, Rishi Sunak and Emmanuel Macron publicly questioned the leadership of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. Their criticisms came after the Gaza War reached a stalemate in March 2024 as Israel was planning an invasion of the Gaza City of Rafah. Western leaders insisted that all civilians should be evacuated from the city prior to an invasion. Netanyahu responded by saying that Israel is "not a banana republic" and doesn't listen to the other countries when security is on the line. Western leaders fear that if the Rafah invasion happens without an evacuation a further massacre of Palestinian citizens will take place. Israel political observers note that Netanyahu is incentivized to prolong the war since he will likely be voted out of office at its conclusion.

US Government should support Israel in protecting itself, but should hold Israel military to rules of engagement under international treaties guiding war.
@9LDTTKQ2mos2MO
Yes and no. I believe that since Hamas started, Israel has the right to defend themselves. However, it's been too much murder from Israel's part. An agreement will only be done when the two leaders decide to meet up and solve problems. The U.S. should focus first on its citizen and then try to help others.

No but the US can’t be seen as picking their leader. We should express our discontent and leave it for the Israeli people to decide.
@9MW7PSW1wk1W
He should be recognized as any other leader would be, but his decisions should be condemned and questioned freely when necessary
@tmcgee023wks3W
This is an internal decision hat should be made by the Israeli citizenry an would be seen as the US involving itself in foreign elections. It is an assault of foreign sovereignty.
@9MC5LGW3wks3W
The government should continue to support the elected government of Israel, not Benjamin Netanyahu and his politics in particular.
