Israel suffered a major attack by Hamas on Saturday and hundreds of civilians are reported murdered and large numbers of Israeli civilians taken hostage. There have been reports that some Americans in Israel were taken hostage too, but I haven’t seen any confirmation of that yet. Israel has declared war on Hamas. Iran has reportedly aided Hamas in this attack and yet so far, President Biden hasn’t said anything and neither have former presidents Obama and Clinton. All three have been gung ho with appeasing Iran and Hamas and Biden recently cut some deal with Iran – a prisoner swap and releasing $6 billion in frozen Iranian funds.
Here’s a post on X of Sec. of State Anthony Blinken admitting Iran always focuses on funding terror, which begs the question why the Biden administration is so gung ho to cut deals with Iran and why they released this $6 billion:
One interesting bit of news yesterday was Israel has loosened its private gun ownership rules, to allow as many Israeli citizens as possible to arm themselves for self-defense:
This article today explains some of the background and many more details of the situation in this conflict: Hamas’s War on Israel: Everything You Need to Know: Answering your questions on Hamas, Iran, the occupation, and more., written by Alana Newhouse and Jeremy Stern. This article explains the Obama/Biden embrace of Iran, who funds, arms, and trains Hamas and raises some disturbing questions about why the Biden administration has been mostly silent on Hamas’ attack on Israel and slow on condemning Hamas. Former President Obama, likewise was silent over the weekend on condemning Hamas and Iran’s support of Hamas. Here’s an excerpt from this article:
When he was Obama’s vice president, Biden was a central progenitor of the Iran Deal, which he then solidified as the cornerstone of his own administration’s Middle East policy.
By allying the U.S. with Tehran, the Iran Deal created a deadly embrace between the United States and a terror state run by corrupt medieval clerics who keep power through violence against their own people and by promoting terror and chaos abroad. As a self-proclaimed “revolutionary regime,” Iran explicitly aims to set not just Israel, but the entire region, on fire.
Giving the Iranians the backing of the U.S. was a recipe for chaos and a green light for terror throughout the region, which is exactly what has happened since Obama announced his deal. Funding Iranian terror, to the tune of $16 billion that the Biden administration sent to Iran in recent weeks, is an act of criminal negligence. As a result, it is fair to say that America has Israeli blood on its hands, too.

There are still unanswered questions on how Hamas was able to to carry out this attack and how Israel’s high-tech border security systems failed. There are also unanswered questions as to whether Russia and/or China possibly aided Hamas’ attack. Turkey’s, leader, President Erdogan, was also urging Israel not to wage war on Hamas and as typically happens when Israel is attacked, there will likely be an effort to reframe Israel as somehow in the wrong and also a massive PR effort directed at the Arab Street in the Middle East and Erdogan is certainly no stranger to leaning into that propaganda effort.
Just like with the Afghanistan withdrawal debacle and the disjointed Biden effort to aid Ukraine after a full-scale Russian invasion, the Biden administration will likely bungle along with how they respond to this latest crisis. Despite doing the maintaining face lip service about supporting Israel, the Biden crowd is the same as the Obama crowd and definitely not pro-Israel. This crowd also consistently made excuses for Palestinian terror in the past. Ditto this for the Clintons and former President Clinton, likewise was silent on condemning Hamas over the weekend. Back during the Clinton years, the PLO leader, Yassir Arafat, was a frequent visitor to the Clinton WH, while Hillary hobnobbed with Arafat’s wife. Coddling Palestinian terrorists, while shifting blame to Israel is par for the course with Clinton, Obama and now Biden.
Secretary of State Anthony Blinken and his band of nincompoops at the State Department have been posting on X, urging Israel to not respond to the attack on its country and then deleting posts, apparently reacting to public outrage for sounding weak on condemning Hamas:
Just like in every other event that dominates the news lately, wild conspiracy theories are already permeating about this attack on Israel, but so far this seems to be the gist of what’s happening. Hamas was acting with Iran’s support and direction. Russian and/or Chinese involvement has not been proven. President Biden didn’t respond and instead hosted a BBQ at the White House yesterday afternoon: White House slammed for hosting BBQ with live band as war rages in Israel.
What happened in Israel should be a wake-up call for Democrats and their open borders embrace. Israel takes securing their borders very seriously. There have been reports that possibly cyberattacks dismantled some of the Israeli border security systems, but here in the US, our government has no idea how many illegals have flooded in, where they are from and what their intentions are. Judging by how obsessed the Biden administration and Democrats are at scapegoating the right, they’re more invested in hunting down “MAGA Republicans” than illegals who mean us harm.
The Biden administration is a complete disgrace and they’re already covering their own butts for their complicity in aiding and abetting Iranian terrorism and foot-dragging on supporting Israel. While many people reflexively jump on the bandwagon urging a “ceasefire,” just like in Ukraine, what demanding a “ceasefire” does is pressure the country that was invaded to appease the country that invaded – it rewards the bad actors. This happened in Ukraine too and many Americans bought into this idea that Ukraine should just agree to a ceasefire, which would freeze lines where Russia seized Ukrainian territory. Blinken immediately urging a ceasefire would pressure Israel not to rightly defend itself. In Ukraine, Russia invaded, not the other way around and this situation with Israel, it’s important to keep in mind, who was the aggressor. Hamas invaded Israel and murdered hundreds of Israeli citizens.
