“I look forward to working with Prime Minister Netanyahu, who has been my friend for decades, to jointly address the many challenges and opportunities facing Israel and the Middle East region, including threats from Iran,” Biden said in a statement released by the White House.

“The United States is working to promote a region that’s increasingly integrated, prosperous and secure, with benefits for all of its people. From the start of my administration, we have worked with partners to promote this more hopeful vision of a region at peace, including between Israelis and Palestinians,” the statement continued, adding that Washington would “continue to support the two-state solution and to oppose policies that endanger its viability or contradict our mutual interests and values.”

Israel’s thirty-seventh government was inaugurated earlier in the day, the culmination of a weeks-long political process following the victory of Netanyahu’s right-religious bloc in the Nov. 1 national election.

Netanyahu, Israel’s longest-ever serving leader, takes the reins for his sixth term in the Prime Minister’s Office, to which he returns following a year-and-a-half hiatus.

Wait a minute. Fellow democrats Kirsten Gillabrand, Cory Booker, & Bob Casey are still gung ho on giving the Iranian regime whatever they need to build weapons to wipe the Jewish Nation off the earth. Jerrold Nadler and Rashida Tlaib in Congress also want to make sure that Iran is given every opportunity to kill Jews.
