CLAIM: President Joe Biden claimed Wednesday he was invited to Israel as a "Liaison" to Egypt during the Six Day War.
VERDICT: FALSE. Biden was a law student during the Six Day War in 1967.
President Biden tried to impress his audience at the annual White House menorah lighting ceremony, telling the kind of tall tale that has become his trademark, claiming to have been invited to Israel by Prime Minister Golda Meir in the Six Day War.
Biden's first visit to Israel as a U.S. Senator took place in 1973.
Biden was not a "Liaison" between Israel and Egypt; if he was, he was a poor one, because war broke out weeks later.
Biden does not mention any work as a "Liaison" between Israel and Egypt in his 2007 memoir, Promises to Keep.
One meeting with an Israeli leader that Biden does not want to talk about is a clash that took place behind closed doors in 1982, when he tried to threaten Israeli Prime Minister Menachem Begin with a cutoff of U.S. aid.
It's becoming increasingly difficult to discern fact from fiction, and unfortunately the media has a strong bias. They spin stories to make conservatives look bad and will go to great lengths to avoid reporting on the good that comes from conservative policies. There are a few shining lights in the media landscape-brave conservative outlets that report the truth and offer a different perspective. We must support conservative outlets like this one and ensure that our voices are heard.
