U.S. Turns on Israel

Like me, you may have assumed from everything Joe Biden has said, that he has Israel’s back. I have news for you—he’s really working for Hamas. That sounds like a drastic comment, but in the video of this post, Caroline Glick lays out the hypocrisy of Biden, and how I believe it has not only crept up on Benjamin Netanyahu, but on the American public. And I’m alarmed and angry.

As I describe what has actually been going on, I think you’ll be able to see how the rules have changed (if you’ve at least partly followed the words and actions of the U.S.) Let me provide you with a summary of Glick’s observations.

  • The terms for a “cease fire” and the release of hostages keep changing. Remember when Netanyahu refused to have a cease fire, but agreed to a “humanitarian pause,” when all the hostages were released? The latest terms are that fighting will be stopped in certain areas, so that people can be let through. But now, Qatar (you know, that other center of terrorism) is working on an agreement that says 10-15 hostages can be released for longer “pauses.” What happened to Netanyahu’s resolve? Has the U.S. been making unreasonable demands so that Netanyahu is capitulating? Why is Biden allowing Qatar to cater to Hamas?
  • Maybe the answer is because U.S. generals are telling the Israelis that they should be using less powerful bombs; they think the 2,000-pound bombs might hurt too many people. So, the U.S. military is suggesting they will send 350-pound bombs to Israel. Of course, the smaller bombs will not penetrate the earth to reach the tunnels underneath. But fewer civilians might be killed.
  • Finally, there was a 1km buffer zone between Gaza and Israel at one time. I don’t have the details of why it was removed, but there is no buffer between the kibbutzim and Gaza and hasn’t been for a while. Do you remember the fiery kites and other flaming objects that were pitched from Gaza into Israel, wounding Israelis and destroying Israeli crops? Glick says that not only should a buffer zone be restored, perhaps 2km, but Israel should also annex some land to do so. If the Gazans feel that they’ve lost very little as a result of the war (since people don’t count), they will attack Israel again. Of course, the U.S. disagrees.

Caroline Glick had several other points she made that support her contention that Biden is working for Hamas, and not for the benefit of Israel; I encourage you to watch the video. Many of us suspected that Biden would apply more pressure on Israel to make decisions counter to their interests. He is not a fan of Israel, but he is certainly a supporter of Iran, the country that supports and backs Hamas.

Where do you think his allegiances lie?

    I never assumed he was pro Israel. They were walking back his support on day 1.

    Yes he is pro Iran and thus pro Hamas.

    Alternate theory: Biden and Hamas are both working for Obama. Change my mind.
