With legislation almost certain to fail given bipartisan backing for Israel, administration’s decision to weigh in shows desire for party to maintain pro-Israel stance after election
Meanwhile, the Biden administration has been privately working to push back against the Senate legislation, with officials from the White House, State Department and Pentagon reaching out to various lawmakers on the fence about how they might vote, one US official told The Times of Israel.
Source remained unnamed, basically “trust us bro.”
Do you think the Times of Israel is making things up? Because anonymous sources aren’t anonymous to the reporter, they’re anonymous to us. Granted, Israeli newspapers are quite a bit less trustworthy than most, but it’s hard to see how a fabrication is valuable to them.
Considering the Biden admin just vetoed a UN Security Council resolution for a ceasefire and release of hostages, the idea that this is a “trust us bro” situation is willful blindness. At this point I’m just going to assume either Biden will do whatever Israel wants on his own free will, or they have some serious blackmail on him.

He’s following decades of US State Department foreign policy. At this point nothing short of Israel attacking the US will change the stance.
