President Biden sat down with the newly installed Israeli Prime Minister Naftali Bennett Friday, roughly 24 hours after the deadly suicide bombing in Kabul.
The president and the prime minister’s meeting, originally scheduled for Thursday, was postponed in the wake of the attack.
In a brief media availability kicking off the closed-door encounter, both Biden and Bennett started by acknowledging the “brave sacrifice” by the 13 U.S. service members killed in the Kabul bombing.
Biden told Bennett that he prefers diplomacy when it comes to preventing Iran from acquiring nuclear weapons, but he said if that fails, the U.S. will consider “other options” to ensure Iran “never” gets nuclear bombs.
Biden also stated an “unwavering commitment that we have in the United States to Israel’s security,” and that he “fully” supports “replenishing Israel’s Iron Dome system.”

What happened in Afghanistan?
The very much cognitively impaired Biden has been trying to make any kind of nuclear deal with Iran since he got in office.
Think about it–he’s looking to make a deal with the world’s largest sponsor of terrorism in a country that has repeatedly called for the total destruction of Israel. Am I missing something here?
Add to that–Iran almost immediately violated the terms of agreement regarding the last nuclear deal brokered by Obama.
An Iran Nuclear deal is potentially the death knell for Israel and quite possibly the world.
Are people insane?
He shudda invited Bibi instead & he cudda asked him how to get out of the mess heez in.
The guy can not say a full sentence without a piece of paper SCARY
It won’t be long they’ll be sending pallets of cash to the Taliban as well as Iran. I wonder what the going rate is going to be per hostage?
I think General Millie should go there & address wokeness & rage to the Taliban & ISIS, ISIS-k & ISIS a-z.
