U.S. Presisdent Joe Biden is growing frustrated with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's constant snubbing of Washington's requests, the RT website reports. "Netanyahu has given Biden the finger" repeatedly, one Democratic lawmaker said.
The two have not spoken since Dec. 23, when Biden unsuccessfully attempted to pressure the Israeli PM into releasing tax revenue withheld for the Palestinian Authority (PA).
"The situation sucks and we are stuck. The presaident's patience is running out," an anonymous U.S. official told the Axios website. "At every juncture, Netanyahu has given Biden the finger," Democratic Senator Chris Van Hollen added.
