President Joe Biden's rant continues after he reportedly called Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu a “fucking villain.”
People who have spoken to President Joe Biden claim that the 81-year-old leader called Benjamin Netanyahu a “bad guy” in private conversations, Politico revealed.
Biden's alleged insults come as the US becomes increasingly embroiled in war and conflict in the Middle East.
Politico's Jonathan Martin wrote a column on Sunday explaining how Biden, 81, is losing millions of votes among young liberals for the United States' support of Israel amid the ongoing conflict with Hamas in Gaza.
Martin revealed that unnamed sources told him Biden was “deeply suspicious” of Netanyahu.
Biden's latest tirade comes after it was revealed that he called Trump a “sick guy” in conversations.

The White House vehemently denied the statements published in the column.
“The president has not said that and would not say that,” Biden’s spokesman told Politico, adding that Biden and Netanyahu “have a decades-long relationship that is respectful in public and in private.”
Martin further suggested that Biden's recent behavior indicates efforts to win support from pro-Palestinian voters, citing the president's speech at the National Prayer Breakfast.
Biden spoke out at the event against hate crimes and discrimination against Arab Americans and said he sympathized with those who are “held hostage, bombed or displaced.”
According to Martin, a Democrat in the House of Representatives told him that it was “unanimous that this war between Israel and Gaza must end now and that Biden must stand up to Bibi,” adding that the conflict in Gaza is “politically a disaster.”
“Bibi is toxic among many Democratic voters and Biden needs to distance himself from him — yesterday,” the lawmaker reportedly told Martin.
These revelations come shortly after it was reported that Biden had not spoken to Netanyahu in a month as the president's patience was reportedly exhausted amid the incessant bombardment of the Gaza Strip.
The two's last conversation reportedly took place on December 23, when Netanyahu rejected Biden's request for Israel to release Palestinian tax revenues and an angry Biden ended the call by saying, “This conversation is over.”
Sen. Chris Van Hollen told Axios, “Netanyahu has given Biden the finger at all times. “They beg the Netanyahu coalition, but they keep getting slapped.”

The White House vehemently denied the statements published in the column after it was published on Sunday, insisting that Biden “did not say that and would not say it.”
The long period of silence is unusual as the couple had spoken almost every other day since October.
Rumors of Biden's profanity also extended to his political opponent Donald Trump, whom he reportedly referred to as a “sick guy” in conversations with close confidants and longtime friends.
The combative words came as Biden spoke about Trump's alleged comments that fallen American soldiers were “suckers” and “losers” and he grew angry as he raised his late son Beau, who served in the Delaware National Guard in Iraq before he Died in 2015.
“I have to control my Irish temper. I'm glad I wasn't with him. I'm not sure what I would have done. “He said they were all idiots and losers,” Biden said of Trump.
Then Biden raised his voice and sounded angry as he referred to his late son: “My son was no fool, and neither were any of you. 'Who does this guy think he is talking about Americans?'
Biden repeated a shortened version of his fundraising speech later that evening during his rally in Las Vegas and toned down his direct threats.
“This is a guy, when he was in France, they asked him to go to the American cemetery,” Biden noted. Do you know what he said? He said these people were idiots and losers. Idiots and losers, for heaven's sake. I'm glad I wasn't there. No, I should say that.'
