Recall that the U.S. State Department funded a Leftist group that was behind chaotic protests in Israel against Netanyahu’s judicial reform last March. This and more makes it clear that Biden is no friend to Netanyahu. Biden also views Netanyahu as the “primary obstacle” to Israel changing “its military tactics in the Gaza Strip.” On a personal level, according to NBC News, Biden is hostile to Netanyahu:

“He just feels like this is enough,” one of the people said of the views expressed by Biden. “It has to stop.”…..
His descriptions of his dealings with Netanyahu are peppered with contemptuous references to Netanyahu as “this guy,” these people said. And in at least three recent instances, Biden has called Netanyahu an “a**hole,” according to three of the people directly familiar with his comments.
A core reason why Biden is now reportedly “attempting to force the ‘collapse’ of the Israeli government of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu” in the middle of a war against Hamas terrorists in Gaza:
Netanyahu has been a frequent obstacle to Democrats’ policies in the Middle East, starting with his opposition to President Barack Obama’s nuclear deal with Iran, and continuing into his opposition to Biden’s Palestinian state ideas.
Another reason is the dilemma Biden faces in light of the upcoming elections, given his dependence on the Muslim vote and the pressure he has been receiving from Muslim communities. By shifting attention to Israel and the Netanyahu government, Biden diverts scrutiny away from himself and creates an excuse for evading his responsibility to ally with Israel against jihad terror. He also gets to shift blame away from his administration for pouring money into the coffers of Iran. Under Obama, Iran — a main funder of Hamas — saw $33.3 billion dollars in backroom deals flow into its coffers. Under Biden, billions more flowed into Iran.
Creating a crisis to avert attention and responsibility has become a signature ploy of Democrats.
“Report: Biden Trying to Collapse Netanyahu Government, Mid-war,” by Joel B. Pollak, Breitbart, March 11, 2024:
U.S. President Joe Biden is reportedly attempting to force the “collapse” of the Israeli government of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu in the middle of a war against Hamas terrorists in Gaza and a potential war against Hezbollah in Lebanon.
Biden has been increasingly hostile to Netanyahu in his public remarks, recently saying that Netanyahu is “hurting” Israel more than he is helping it through his conduct of the war. (Netanyahu fired back, saying that Biden was “wrong.”)
Now, New York Magazine reports that the Biden administration is actively looking for ways to force Netanyahu’s right-wing coalition, which has been remarkably unified, to fall apart, which would bring about early elections. Report (original emphasis):
One Israeli expert frequently consulted by American officials says, “I have been asked by a serious administration figure what it is that will force the Netanyahu coalition to collapse." They were interested in the mechanics, what can we demand which will collapse his coalition.”
In the event the new American position over Netanyahu remained unclear, Vice-President Kamala Harris left no doubts in a Friday interview with CBS News, which asked “Are the Israelis at risk of losing U.S. aid if this continues?” Harris replied: “I think it’s important for us to distinguish or at least not conflate the Israeli government with the Israeli people.”….
