I think Biden has been working very hard on this, while juggling everything else on the planet and running a presidential election campaign, and just not blabbing it all over kingdom come because that's how such negotiating works.

I am pretty sure that, knowing bibi and his mindset rather well, Biden has been working hard to get even slight acknowledgement in order to have successful talks. Netanyahoo (bibi) is -45 of the ME and has an agenda and that's that. He has backing from hostile nations and, likely, secret info which is being used to blackmail the US, that was sold to him from guess who. Negotiating around the labarynth created by -45 and his fellow dictators will take decades to undo if we can ever accomplish that. Much damage was done and it is far from being remedied. Biden is one of the most skilled negotiators in the country and I am willing to trust his judgement in these freakish times. I voted for the candidate whom I was sure could jump into the driver's seat, take control of the bus and steer us away from an abyss and calm everybody down like a kind dad. He's done that to my satisfaction.

I don't like the way some things get done but the end result is usually the best option available. Most of the grumbling about Biden spins around the country's collective lack of patience, everybody wants everything, every project completed the moment they think of it no matter how complex. Biden has this, it's the other players who want to control our lives that we should direct our concerns toward and not fall over and die with every political attack before we figure out a game plan to confront it.

That's the only part I find different.
