To the Editor: Re “Biden Offers Terse Rebuke of Israeli Leader’s Efforts” (news article, Sept. 3): President Biden says Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is not doing enough to free the hostages.
My question is this: Is he doing all he can to pressure Mr. Netanyahu? Not as far as we know. The obvious lever he has is U.S.
weaponry. If the government of Israel is doing harm to Israel, as many of us think, then some discussion of consequences for following a dangerous policy is appropriate.
As far as we know, there has been little hint of that. Jack M. BloomGary, Ind. To the Editor: With a one-word rebuke — “No” — when asked if Benjamin Netanyahu is doing enough to secure a cease-fire, President Biden has, once again, emboldened Hamas and prolonged the war.
