Eli Lake joins the podcast to discuss the American abstention from yesterday’s UN Security Council ceasefire resolution. Why is the Biden administration saying the policy hasn’t changed when the policy has changed? Who exactly is being gaslit and how does this make an Israeli operation in Rafah any less likely? We also talk about the rise in violent crime and how it relates to the larger sense of unraveling. Give a listen.

    JPOD gives Biden excuses again – tiresome.

    I think Biden wants Israel to go in and finish off Hamas — while making it look like he’s sympathizing with the plight of the 13.8 million (or whatever the number is now) adversely affected Gazan civilians. His sole purpose is to stave off, to appease, the Hamas supporters on his left flank. However, as we all know from Churchill, an appeaser is the person who keeps feeding the crocodile in hopes that he will be the last to be eaten. 

    As for the other totally lacking in principles candidate, Trump is and always has been incoherent, so parsing his statements, John, I fear is a fool’s errand.
