You’re ignoring Option 3: he has access to information none of us do. However cynical one might be, that is a plausible option, and you can’t ignore it and claim it’s illogical to say what he said.
Only time will reveal if his statement is justified.
I don’t see that being the case tbh. Netanyahu said the IDF would enter Rafah, ceasefire or no ceasefire. And Hamas stated they wouldn’t accept any temporary ceasefire agreements.

Israel said it’s not happening and Hamas hasn’t responded.
Biden is either lying for good press to make it sound like he’s doing stuff behind the scenes, or so far gone he believes it.
