President Joe Biden, who doesn’t seem to be able to pronounce “Iran” correctly, was at it again this week, spouting off about the U.S. backing Israel’s right to security. As if that’s something new! The United States has always had Israel’s back, especially when it comes to dealing with those pesky drone and missile attacks from Iran.
Biden says he does not want the Middle East conflict ‘spreading’ in talks with Iraqi Prime Minister: President reiterates that he is ‘committed to Israel’s security’… while also demanding a Gaza ceasefire https://t.co/7gLCvU3i5M #US #Americanpolitics #Biden

During a meeting with Iraq’s Prime Minister Mohammed Shia al Sudani, Biden couldn’t resist the opportunity to pat himself on the back for the partnership between the U.S., Israel, and their allies. He also made sure to call for a negotiated ceasefire between Israel and Hamas in Gaza because, apparently, he thinks he knows how to solve all the world’s problems.
Biden blabbered on about how committed the U.S. is to a ceasefire, bringing hostages home, and preventing the conflict from spreading. He also made sure to throw in some praise for Iraq, emphasizing how the two nations have fought “side-by-side” against the Islamic State. It’s nice to see Biden acknowledging some of the good stuff the U.S. has been doing, but does he really think he’s fooling anyone?
Prime Minister al Sudani, on the other hand, pledged through an interpreter that Iraq would uphold its “humanitarian responsibility” in the region, whatever that means. But, of course, he also had to spout off some politically correct jargon about international law and protecting civilians, specifically women and children. It’s like he’s reading a script straight out of the liberal playbook.
So, there you have it. President Biden and Prime Minister al Sudani spouting off about U.S. commitment, international law, and humanitarian responsibility. But let’s not be fooled by all this grandstanding. The real question is: will anything actually change in the Middle East? And unfortunately, with these leaders at the helm, the answer doesn’t look too promising.
