Biden’s Middle East Stance: A Sign of Tragic Weakness
I have always been a fan of President Biden — and voted for him in 2020 (“Joe’s ‘tired’ tactics as war grows,” April 16).
But his policies on immigration and now the Middle East exhibit weaknesses we have not witnessed since the Carter presidency.
Biden needs to project an image of American strength. Unfortunately, perceived American power has now sunk to new lows.

Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu could take Biden’s suggestion not to retaliate against Iran by focusing on Hezbollah instead, simultaneously responding to Iran’s attack and dealing with a giant security threat. Arnold S. Mazur

By relaxing US sanctions against Tehran over the past several years, Biden effectively contributed billions of dollars to our enemy, Iran. That money, indirectly or directly, has helped finance
Hamas. As usual, Biden screwed up foreign affairs, something that seems to be his specialty.
We will be better off when this failed president leaves the White House for good.

Biden’s presidency is a complete failure. It is far worse than “sleepwalking.” It’s more akin to being asleep at the wheel as the ship of state crashes into one bridge after another. Biden sits crosslegged,
like a dilettante, while he so often dozes off or reads from a card.
If the man is too enfeebled or debilitated to be prosecuted, then how can he be allowed to run the executive branch? Stanley Rubin Fresh Meadows The Post focuses too much on Biden’s failures on Israel and Iran, rather than covering Netanyahu: an extremist megalomaniac desperately wanting a war with Iran.
US media should point out that Iran’s strike was in retaliation for Israel’s provocation: bombing the Damascus embassy and killing a top Tehran official. Yet the coverage makes it seem like Iran attacked Israel unprovoked.
I’m no fan of Iran, but what is it expected to do when Israel attacks it? I’m not a fan of Biden either. But most of all, I am not a fan of biased media. S. A. Linden
