0:56Now PlayingIsraeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu referred to US President Joe Biden as a “proud Irish-American Zionist” during a meeting at the White House on July 25. Netanyahu thanked Biden for his support of Israel and pledged to continue working together at a meeting marking the US leader’s first sit-down with a foreign counterpart since forgoing reelection.
“From a proud Jewish Zionist to a proud Irish-American Zionist, I want to thank you for 50 years of public service and 50 years of support for the state of Israel,” Netanyahu said Thursday in the Oval Office.
Netanyahu said the two had “known each other for 40 years,” adding, “I look forward to working with you in the months ahead.”
Despite the public display of goodwill, the two leaders have clashed over Israel’s conduct of the war against Hamas, designated a terrorist group by the US and European Union. The meeting comes at a politically fraught time for Biden’s party.
