Then Vice President Joe Biden Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu in Jerusalem, March 9, 2010.
What will the strategic alliance between the United States and Israel look like under President Biden? It is too soon to tell. On several crucial issues, including this vital relationship, the administration does not appear to be of one mind. We must wait and see which officials dominate.
Biden clearly wishes to build consensus on foreign policy matters. He also hopes to keep such complex strategic issues on the back burner while his administration focuses on its domestic agenda. At the same time, the core of his foreign policy team looks like an alumni reunion of officials from the administration of President Obama.

If imprisoned Palestinian leader Marwan Barghouti becomes president of the Palestinian Authority (PA), the status quo will change substantially. For Israel, as well as for current PA President Mahmoud Abbas, such a scenario is even more dangerous than another strong Hamas showing in the upcoming Palestinian parliamentary elections.
The long-delayed elections now scheduled for May 22 (parliamentary) and July 31 (presidential) will not only represent a watershed moment for the fractured Palestinian body politic, but also for Fatah, which has dominated the PA since its inception in 1994.
