President Joe Biden’s sudden status as the isolated and outgoing commander in chief has thrown a wrench into Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s attempt to rally U.S. opposition to Iran and its proxies, as the embattled premier faces a cold shoulder from Democratic leaders amid pressure from his own security establishment.

“I think what we’re going to see is a prime minister of Israel that tries to shift the focus to … [the analysis that] Israel is at war with Iran,” Foundation for Defense of Democracies Senior Vice President Jonathan Schanzer told the Washington Examiner. “It is a multifront war that is now being waged across the Middle East — Lebanon, Gaza, West Bank, Iraq, Syria, Yemen, Iran itself — all of these fronts have gone hot at different points over the last nine months, but they are all part of a much bigger picture that I believe has been lost on the American public.”
