Haaretz
. The Israeli Prime Minister threatens to attack the city of Rafah, but he especially attacks President Biden, the newspaper further believes. It became a personal conflict between the two men. Benyamin Netanyahu is ready to sacrifice relations between his country and the United States to achieve even a narrow media victory in Israel.

Yediot Ahronot
: a standoff between a tiny Bibi Netanyahu and the giant Joe Biden.
