Biden's Speech: A Historic Moment for America's Global Role

In a recent address, President Biden linked Ukraine's struggle against Russia and Israel's struggle against Hamas, depicting the conflicts as battles between authoritarianism and democracy. However, the article argues that Biden's equivalencies and analogies are flawed. It highlights the corruption charges against Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu and his government's illiberal tendencies. The article also criticizes Biden for neglecting the Israeli occupation of Palestinian territories and the suffering of Palestinians under Israeli control. The author accuses Biden of hypocrisy for claiming to care about Palestinian civilians while vetoing a UN resolution for an immediate ceasefire. The article calls for an end to Israeli apartheid and the establishment of a Palestinian state to achieve peace and mutual understanding. It criticizes Biden for being stuck in an outdated paradigm and failing to take decisive action.
