When Biden meets with Prime Minister Naftali Bennett later this month he needs to crack the whip regarding Israel's trade with China.
Jerusalem Post
Opinion
This is the same China that has been eating Israel’s infrastructure for the last decade. Ports, power stations, bridges, tunnels and more have all been built
by China. All indications are that Biden will bring this up with Bennett when the two meet. Some in Israel’s government have recommended convening the
security cabinet to discuss the issue. It is that important.
While Trump officials tried to move the previous government to crack down on Chinese investments in Israel, former prime minister Benjamin Netanyahu
did not do much except buy time, with the establishment of a weak oversight mechanism in 2019 that officials admit is impotent. The Americans have
noticed too, and want to see tougher action.

Israel will pay a price for being on wrong side of the US-China fight
America's greatest adversary is not Iran, Islamic terrorism, or even Russia. It is China, and Israel is on the wrong side of those battle lines.
