After ten months of war, Biden believes Netanyahu is 'lying' about a ceasefire deal

A senior official in the Biden administration told the Israeli daily Haaretz on Saturday that the Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is ungrateful toward the United States and overlooks the substantial aid it has provided to Israel over the past 10 months of conflict.

"Biden realised that Netanyahu was lying to him about the hostages," the official told Haaretz. "He's not saying it publicly yet, but in the meeting between them, he specifically told him, 'Stop bullshitting me.'"
