Back when Ambassador David Friedman was serving under President Trump, the media never stopped pointing out that he was pro-Israel. Meanwhile, Biden staffers can be as viciously anti-Israel as possible without the media mentioning it even when they get sent to mediate.
Now that the Islamic terrorists of Hamas and the PLO have responded to a pro-terrorist administration in the White House by restarting a full-scale war, the Biden administration is sending their best man out to mediate between Israel and the terrorists.
S Secretary of State Antony Blinken announced Wednesday that he is sending an envoy to the Middle East to “seek to calm tensions” even as he urged Israel to avoid killing civilians.
Deputy Assistant Secretary of State Hady Amr, who oversees Israeli and Palestinian Authority affairs at the department, was to leave Wednesday. He is expected to meet with both Israeli and Palestinian Authority leaders.
If the man sounds at all familiar, it ought to.
“I was inspired by the Palestinian intifada,” Hady Amr wrote a year after September 11, discussing his work as the national coordinator of the anti-Israel Middle East Justice Network.
“I have news for every Israeli,” Amr ranted in one column written after Sheikh Salah Shahada, the head of Hamas’ Izz ad-Din al-Qassam Brigades, was taken out by an Israeli air strike.
Amr warned that Arabs “now have televisions, and they will never, never forget what the Israeli people, the Israeli military and Israeli democracy have done to Palestinian children. And there will be thousands who will seek to avenge these brutal murders of innocents.”
He also threatened Americans that “we too shouldn’t be shocked when our military assistance to Israel and our security council vetoes that keep on protecting Israel come back to haunt us”
Amr then got a gig from Qatar: the state sponsor of Hamas.
A few years later, the Beirut-born extremist had become an advisor on Muslim relations to the World Economic Forum before heading up Brookings’ Doha Center for Qatar. The tiny Islamic tyranny is allied with Iran, Al Qaeda, and the Muslim Brotherhood. It’s a backer of Hamas.
A decade after Amr had responded to the death of a Hamas leader by ranting that “there will be thousands who will seek to avenge these brutal murders of innocents”, the Obama administration made him a Deputy to its Special Envoy for Israeli Palestinian negotiations.
At Brookings Doha, Amr had urged that the “Muslim brotherhood organizations across the Muslim World should be engaged”. Then he wondered, “in Lebanese and Palestinian society, the faith-based organizations are seen as the least corrupt… Hamas and Hezbollah are often cited by their populations as being non-corrupt. This needs more analysis. Is this the case?”
Over the past few years, Amr has repeatedly urged negotiations with Hamas. When the Trump administration unveiled its proposed peace deal, Amr co-wrote an article declaring that it should be scrapped in favor of focusing on a deal with Hamas.
“By laying out the terms of a three-way Hamas-Israel-PA/PLO deal now, and building an international consensus around it, the United States could create a pathway toward resolution,” the article had argued. That would potentially not only restart Obama’s attempt to impose a plan on Israel, but would do so not only on behalf of the PLO, but also on behalf of Hamas.
Hady Amr got the flow of US aid restarted. Now the fighting will help him bring Hamas into the “negotiations”.
In 2019, Amr had co-written an article arguing that the United States should lay “out the terms of a three-way Hamas-Israel-PA/PLO deal now” and “build an international consensus around it.”
That would mean the Biden administration and its point man developing a plan to legitimize Hamas, gaining the support of the Europeans and the Russians, and then imposing it on Israel.
Hamas, according to Amr and his co-authors, would offer Israel nothing more than a cease-fire, while Israel would have to “incentivize” by “offering a significant move” on peace.
You can’t have a cease-fire without a war.
The war is a prelude to Israel being forced to make concessions for a temporary cease-fire and to negotiate with Hamas.
Everything is going according to plan. But hardly anyone is paying attention to the plan because they’re too busy being distracted by being in the moment.

Thank you again for the details with warnings to let others know, what is going on in Israel. The Church needs to be better informed, along with Christian magazine reporters.

That aggressive and hostile Islamic regime supports and funds its stooge jihad terror entity, Hamas to send deadly rocket attacks into Israel to murder Israeli citizens. The officials of the State of Israel comprehend this then strike back, for brute force is the only language that the jihadists are able to understand. Just like a common criminal, the Iran’s Muslim tyrants refuse to accept that they are the ones that cause Israel to strike back. Therefore, that “mullah tyranny” launches further terrors strike against Israel for “revenge.” Even though they stated it all.
Iran’s mullah president Rouhani along with Ayatollah Ali Khamenei with their despicable words with his brainwash and then get the Iranian people all worked up until they chant, over and over again, “Death to Israel.”
Ayatollah Khamenei is so ignorant that he neither knows nor understand that that all his Muslim stooge terror organization. Hamas etc. is fated to fail with their Islamic agenda of destroying the State of Israel and replacing with Islamic “state.”
The reason that they will lose in the end and lose hard is because the members of those jihad terror entities are striving against the Will of God. The jihadists who made up might be too ignorant to know this; nevertheless, the truth is the God had given all land that now composes the State of Israel, including all of the West Bank, to the Jewish people.
This may be found in the Bible, as seen in, for example, Genesis 28:13-15. 35:10-12. Deuteronomy 32:48,49. Psalm 105:7-11. 135:4. In other words the Jews have all this land by Divine Right. Furthermore, the Jewish people should have this land by historic rights as shown in First Kings 4:20,21, 24,25. 8:55, 56.
Still, in all fairness, there is one way for Khamenei and Iran’s Revolutionary Guards along with the Muslim members who make up Hamas to convince God to change His Mind about being so much for Israel and then cause Him to turn His back on Israel and then have that nation be no more.
That way is for the members of the jihad organizations to gather together and then change the laws of astrophysics, including those laws of astrophysics the control the sun, the moon and the stars. For God had declared in His Word, the Bible, in Jeremiah 31:35,36. “Thus saith the Lord, Who gives the sun for a light by day and the ordinances of the moon and stars for a light by night…The Lord of host is His name. If those ordinances depart from before Me, saith the Lord, then the seed of Israel also shall cease from being a nation before Me forever.”

If I was Israel…yeah, I know, I’m not a country…I would refuse to “meet” with this so-called “mediator” and tell biden to send someone who has a hinged brain.
There is no point in talking to him or listening to him. Israel would be better off talking to the dogs in the street.
Infidel says
Israel should just deny him entry, or better yet, make it contingent on Biden dropping the idea of JCPOA completely. See, Israel holds the cards: Biden and the Dems need more from Israel than Israel needs from the US
somehistory says
Drop-kick him into the deep blue, and tell biden to go fish.
If Israel didn’t matter so much, the idiots wouldn’t try so hard to boss her around.

Biden Sends Pro-Hamas Envoy ‘Inspired by Intifada’ to Mediate Between Israel and Jihad Terrorists
………………..
So someone who was ““I was inspired by the Palestinian intifada”–that is, by the Jihad against Jews–is being sent to Israel to “deescalate” things? In reality, this means to strong-arm Isreal into not defending herself.
Biden keeps getting worse and worse.

What countries might be willing to help Israel fight off Hamas, Hezbollah/Iran, Russia, Syria both Shia and Muslim Bro Sunni?Who would help in this cowardly, shallow world where only money counts. I want to talk to Pompeo.

Just like they pay thousands of dollars to ex-pimps to advise on human trafficking, and no one has anything to say.
