Israel Prime Minister will ignore Joe Biden’s “red line” in his war against Hamas by proceeding with an invasion of the Palestinian city of Rafah, he announced on Sunday.
In an interview with Politico, Netanyahu confirmed that he would proceed with an invasion of the Rafah on the southern border of the Gaza Strip with Egypt, disregarding Biden’s protests on the matter.
“We’ll go there. We’re not going to leave,” he explained. “You know, I have a red line. You know what the red line is, that October 7 doesn’t happen again. Never happens again.”
When asked about Biden’s concerns, Netanyahu said he was not sure “exactly what the president meant,” but that he was “wrong on both counts.”
He continued:
[The Israeli people] also support my position that says that we should resoundingly reject the attempt to ram down our throats a Palestinian state.
