Biden was recorded in a conversation with an American senator: I told Bibi that we would have a "alignment conversation" regarding the war in Gaza - voila! news. Biden used a phrase that means having a tough, direct conversation.

This is after the State of the Nation speech, which signals a significant change of direction in Biden's approach to the war. In his speech, Biden spoke for the first time about 30,000 Palestinians who were killed during the war and claimed that most of them were not members of Hamas.
