President Biden was caught on a hot mic telling US Senators that he told Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu that he was heading for a come to Jesus meeting with the president.

Biden said, “I told him, Bibi, and don’t repeat this, but you and I are going to have a ‘come to Jesus’ meeting.”

The Biden administration tried to convince Netanyahu for months to stop his invasion of Gaza and to allow humanitarian aid. The shift in administration policy toward stepping up and providing direct humanitarian aid to the Palestinians is the next step in what could be a very tough time for Netanyahu.

Prime Minister Netanyahu seems to be using the invasion of Gaza to hold on to power in Israel because he is facing corruption charges. If Netanyahu is ever out of power, his next stop will be back to criminal court as a defendant.

Patience has worn thin with Netanyahu, and the guess is that any come to Jesus meeting with Biden ends with the President telling Netanyahu to stop the war crimes in Gaza or US aid will be cut off.
