Journalist Bob Woodward is to publish the book “War,” which traces the history of three conflicts: the Middle East, Ukraine and Russia, as well as the struggle for the presidency of the United States.
In it, he reveals some of the conversations that current US President Joe Biden has had over the years with Vladimir Putin, Benjamin Netanyahu and Volodymyr Zelensky.
In one passage in the book, Joe Biden called Netanyahu a “bad guy” in private conversations in the spring of 2024, as the Gaza war escalated and began to spread to other countries. “That son of a b—, Bibi Netanyahu, is a bad guy. He’s a f—ing bad guy,” Mr. Biden said, according to Mr. Woodward.
Relations between the two American and Israeli leaders were on the rocks during those months, and the disagreements between them were evident. Woodward recounts this in another chapter, which features a telephone conversation from April.
– What’s your strategy, man? Biden asks Netanyahu.
– We have to enter Rafah,” Mr. Netanyahu replied.
– Bibi, you have no strategy,” Biden replied.
It’s a safe bet that investigative journalist Bob Woodward’s “War” will generate a lot of controversy and reaction.
