Biden fumbles again, mistakes northern Israeli city of Haifa for Gazan city of Rafah
Biden fumbles again, mistakes northern Israeli city of Haifa for Gazan city of Rafah
During a discussion about Israel's ongoing conflict in Gaza, President Joe Biden exhibited his ongoing cognitive decline as he referenced the Israeli city of Haifa when he was actually referring to the Gazan city of Rafah.
Haifa, located in northern Israel, is the country's third-largest city and home to a major Israeli port, whereas Rafah is situated in the very southern tip of Gaza, right next to the border with Egypt.
In an interview addressing his efforts to engage with voters sympathetic to the Palestinian cause, Biden mentioned meeting with Israeli officials and emphasized the need to increase humanitarian aid to Gaza. (Related: Biden regime providing nearly all the weapons used by Israel to commit genocide.)
"I've been meeting with them [pro-Palestinian voters], number one," said Biden. "Number two, I made it clear that we have to vastly increase the amount of food, water, healthcare going into Gaza."
"And I made it clear to Israelis: Don't move on Haifa," he added, supposedly referring to Rafah rather than the major Israeli city. "It's just not – I mean, anyway…"
Rafah has emerged as the primary target for Israeli military operations due to its strategic significance, and due to Israeli claims that it houses most of Hamas' remaining strength as well as the dozens of Israeli hostages still in Gaza.
Additionally, the city accommodates a large population of displaced Palestinians, raising concerns about civilian casualties in the event of a major offensive.
Biden's memory and cognitive function are getting worse
This is not the first time Biden has made this kind of mistake. Previously, he mistakenly referred to Egyptian President Abd el-Fattah el-Sisi as the president of Mexico.

Additionally, despite being debunked by reputable sources, Biden has persistently claimed to have traveled extensively with Chinese leader Xi Jinping, further raising questions about the accuracy of his statements.
However, neurologists are cautioning against jumping to conclusions about Biden's cognitive abilities following a report by special counsel Robert Hur describing him as an "elderly man with a poor memory."
While the report highlighted instances of forgetfulness regarding specific details, experts stressed that such lapses may be a normal part of aging.
The report mentioned Biden's difficulty recalling certain time frames, including his tenure as vice president and the passing of his son, Beau Biden, due to brain cancer. Despite this, Biden refuted any concerns about his memory during a press conference, asserting that his memory remains intact.
Dr. Paul Newhouse, from the Vanderbilt Alzheimer’s Disease Research Center, noted that difficulty recalling names is a widespread complaint among older adults and doesn't reliably predict memory disorders.
Similarly, Dr. Dennis Selkoe, co-director of the Ann Romney Center for Neurologic Diseases, pointed out that stress and sleep deprivation can impact memory function regardless of age.
Dr. Thomas Wisniewski, from NYU Langone Health's Alzheimer's Disease Research Center, noted that accumulated life experiences may enhance wisdom despite declines in memory. However, experts emphasized that concerns arise when memory lapses extend to recent or significant events, indicating potential progressive disorders.
