We can hope that the Biden administration’s joining of the antisemitic gang-up on Israel will backfire. It is, meanwhile, causing a stir among Republicans. “GOP members described the ‘shocking betrayal’ of Israel by the Biden administration as both “disgusting and cowardly.” It was Rep. Chip Roy who called the administration’s decision to abstain from the UN vote calling for ceasefire in Gaza “cowardly.”
The administration did not vote outright for a unconditional ceasefire, which would appear to be worse, but the US decision to abstain (instead of vetoing the resolution) amounted to the same result: a betrayal of Israel. It also sent a message to Hamas and Iran that America was weak against the jihad threat, not only the threat against Israel, but against all free societies.
Israel’s battle against Hamas is a battle for its own existence, as well as for all free societies. Those who stand for “America First” should realize that America is also under threat from Islamic jihadis. Hamas is a powerful Muslim Brotherhood offshoot. Hamas, as does the Muslim Brotherhood, seeks a global caliphate. The Muslim Brotherhood instructs its members that “Jihad is the way.”
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu recently met with US Senator Rick Scott. A after thanking Scott for visiting Jerusalem, Netanyahu stated (thanks to the Israel Government Press Office):
I thought the US decision in the Security Council was a very, very bad move. The worst part about it was that it encouraged Hamas to take a hard line and to believe that international pressure will prevent Israel from freeing the hostages and destroying Hamas.
My decision not to send the delegation to Washington in the wake of that resolution was a message to Hamas: Don’t bet on this pressure, it’s not going to work.
I hope they got the message.
“Exclusive: Rep. Chip Roy Accuses Biden of Pandering to ‘Radical’ Progressives by ‘Abandoning’ Ally Israel,” by Joshua Klein, Breitbart, March 26, 2024:
President Joe Biden’s “cowardly” decision for the U.S. to abstain from the U.N. Security Council’s call for a ceasefire in the Gaza conflict — effectively granting Hamas its wish to remain in power — is a “slap in the face” to Israel, according to Representative Chip Roy.
The Texas Republican further accused the Democrat president of pandering to progressive extremists while “abandoning” America’s longtime ally in the Middle East.
In an exclusive statement to Breitbart News on Tuesday, Rep. Roy addressed the recent U.S. abstention from a U.N. Security Council vote calling for a ceasefire in the Gaza war, a move that diverged from its usual practice of vetoing resolutions against Israel.
“The Biden administration’s cowardly decision to abandon our ally Israel and abstain instead of vetoing this biased UN Security Council Resolution is a slap in the face,” he said. “This is yet another shameless ploy to curry favor with the radical progressive Democrats whose true sympathies lie with Hamas.”…..

Rep. Roy is right.
pandering….one synonym is “bow to.” and “cater to” and “please.”
the lack of a veto was likely beyond *pleasing* to mozlums and their cohorts everywhere.
“bowing down to the beast” …giving worship to evil.
Abandoning Israel. And the female at the U.N. who has claimed that Israel is committing genocide (who also now claims she’s been threatened) and calling for every nation to ban giving any kind of support to Israel, is another bow to evil.
Ezekiel says that Israel is “without walls” against the nations “from the North.”
“10 “‘This is what the Sovereign Lord says: On that day thoughts will come into your mind and you will devise an evil scheme. 11 You will say, “I will invade a land of unwalled villages; I will attack a peaceful and unsuspecting people—all of them living without walls and without gates and bars. 12 I will plunder and loot and turn my hand against the resettled ruins and the people gathered from the nations, rich in livestock and goods, living at the center of the land.
Walls in the Bible can be literal…as the literal walls around Jerusalem in days of old; and they can be symbolic as the young woman about whom King Soloman wrote being ‘like a wall’ and not ‘like a door.’
There are no literal walls around Israel to keep out those who wish to commit genocide…a **real** genocide…against the Jews. Now, it seems there are no figurative walls, as the U.S. has abandoned Israel to her enemies.

I was watching an Alan Dershowitz video today warning Democrats that Biden’s moves are making him reconsider voting for the Dems. The good news is that Dershowitz is happy w/ Kennedy, & thinks “No-labels” might have a good candidate if they announce one, since he himself is a deranged Never-Trumper, although he’s fair to Trump on the legal challenges posed before the former president

I do hope that all Jewish never-Trump Dems vote for RFK in November, while the Intifada crowd votes for Cornel West. It’ll be hilarious to watch Biden lose both camps and hopefully even states like New York and California

The trouble is Biden has the voting blocks at the cemeteries thru-out the country lock up .Plus the mystery mail in votes from vacant lots and fields ,do not forget the “new arrivals ” votes from no ID blue states and early voting plus post election counting in blue states. I am waiting for some mystery flu or numerous terror attacks to cause another lock down for our good by our “betters” to cause another giant steal in the 2024 Presidential election. We all fell down a rabbit hole in the year 2020 ,BLM mostly peaceful riots ,lock down for the China US finance lab flu ,Hunters laptop hush up by big tech and government censors , everyone taking the mystery shots or losing their jobs by orders of I am the science. I think the fun has not begun for 2024 ,we are all Alice going thru the looking glass ,feed your head. The Soros paid rent a mob has not fired up yet , and the commie toddlers and Islamic savages have not reveled the masterpieces of plan misery yet.

I can’t understand how an otherwise intelligent / reasonable constitutional law expert like attorney Alan Dershowitz can STILL remain a Democrat.
I guess it’s an extremely hard habit to break…

I didn’t read the article because I got incensed when I read “pandering to progressive extremists.” Why do conservatives self-censor?
What the heck is a progressive extremist?
What the heck is a progressive?
What the heck are “radical progressives?”
I’m sick of Conservatives afraid to say “Communist” or “Fascist” when describing the de facto Democrat Communist Party USA. Even Trump is using the word “Communist” interchangeably with Democrat. If Conservatives can’t tell it like it is, we will lose are country to the anti-American, totalitarian Democrat FascistCommies.
