Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu rejected a comment made by US President Joe Biden on how the management of the war in Gaza is "Hurting Israel more than helping it". 

In an interview with Politico, Netanyahu dissed the US president, saying "If he [Biden] meant by that that I'm pursuing private policies against the majority, the wish of the majority of Israelis, and that this is hurting the interests of Israel, then he's wrong on both counts." 

Netanyahu said on Sunday, in response to a question about whether Israeli forces would advance into Rafah: "We'll go there. We're not going to leave. You know, I have a red line. You know what the red line is, that October 7 doesn't happen again. Never happens again."

Netanyahu claimed that he has the tacit support of other Arab leaders to press forward with the war on Gaza and to confront the Palestinian Resistance, without identifying them.

The American president stated on MSNBC on Saturday that he opposed the war escalating into Rafah and that he could not tolerate "30,000 more Palestinians dead."

Claiming that the "overwhelming majority" of Israelis support the war in Gaza, Netanyahu said the end goal is the "defeat of Hamas." After that, Netanyahu declared that the Palestinian Authority could not be allowed to govern Gaza, a matter he claimed Israelis agree with as well.

"Israelis say that once we destroy the Hamas, the last thing we should do is put in Gaza, in charge of Gaza, the Palestinian Authority that educates its children towards terrorism and pays for terrorism," he said.

He added that any claims of his policies being disavowed by settlers is false, and that "Israel" has never been more united.

This comes a day after Joe Biden said Netanyahu should work more on preserving civilian lives in Gaza as the US-funded genocide drags onto its sixth month. 

The US has expressed growing frustration with Netanyahu's mismanagement of the war and his consistent failure to return Israeli captives and achieve any of his goals. 

'Israel' denounces, protests against Netanyahu

Israeli newspaper Maariv cited informed sources recently, stating that Israeli intransigence is taking over the talks with the Palestinian Resistance in Cairo. 

The sources further labeled the ideas being promoted by Mossad, claiming that Hamas does not care about the captives' deal, as "false", stressing that "Israel" is the one disrupting the current negotiations. 

Maariv also cited a senior Israeli security source as saying that as time passes, all negotiation purposes will cease as there will be no captives left. 

After the failure of the most recent negotiation attempt, Israeli media revealed that during a session including both political and "security" echelons, the IOF requested to expand the negotiations and show more flexibility in all negotiations related to the captives deal, which Netanyahu rejected.

Israeli settlers protested in "Tel Aviv", condemning Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's government policies regarding the Israeli captives held by the Palestinian Resistance in the Gaza Strip.

Opening up the protests, a group of family members and settlers are currently obstructing traffic on Route 1, the highway connecting "Tel Aviv" and occupied al-Quds, as they call for the immediate release of Israeli captives.

Israeli Walla! website reported that the families of the captives urged Netanyahu to reach an agreement immediately, urging him to allow someone else to do so if he cannot.

They emphasized that there is "no complete victory without the return of the captives."
