To expect US to drop Israel is untenable, yet. Biden is well aware of how dire the situation is and that Israel isn't motivated to change course. What is set in motion here will have profound and long term effects and not in Israelis favor. They may end up getting what they wanted and finding out how hollow that is as the rest of the world ostracize a pariah state.
They think being on the outs with the Arab world is harsh but will come to understand that they were a construct of the international community and that community doesn't need an Israeli state as much as they need them.
Israel under Bibi is in danger of becoming as desirable to the international world as South Africa was under apartheid.
