Israel's Prime Minister Netanyahu visits Trump in Florida
Netanyahu defended Israel's actions in the Gaza Strip in a speech before the US Congress in Washington on Wednesday. On Thursday, he was received at the White House by Biden. In Congress, Netanyahu was welcomed with applause and cheers from Republicans, while Biden's Democrats clearly distanced themselves. The relationship between Biden and Netanyahu is tense, following Biden's repeated criticisms of Israel's military operations in the past few months.

- In contrast to Biden, his predecessor, Donald Trump, with a close personal relationship with Netanyahu, often praised Israel's actions and was a frequent critic of Biden on Fox News.
- The Democratic party, led by Biden, has faced criticism for their perceived lack of support for Israel in the Gaza Strip, a stance that has been a point of contention between the U.S. President and Binyamin Netanyahu.
