For decades, the United States has been one of Israel’s most loyal allies. That trend was in jeopardy when Barack Obama was president. Donald Trump, however, was such a supporter of Israel that he moved the U.S. embassy to Jerusalem.
But with Joe Biden in office, America’s support for the Jewish nation is once again in peril. Biden seems terrified of losing support among far-left Democrats. These progressives have been extremely hostile to Israel, in the wake of the October 7th attack.
Biden has appeared to be pulling support from Israel, even scolding it for retaliation against the terror attack. Now, it seems Biden is taking even larger steps to placate the far left, at the expense of Israel.
From Fox News:
The Biden administration has put a hold on a shipment of U.S.-manufactured ammunition to Israel for the first time since the deadly Oct. 7 Hamas terror attack, according to a report.Two Israeli officials told Axios that the weapons shipment was stopped last week, leaving officials within the Israeli government scrambling to understand why.
There seems to be no logical reason for the U.S. to stop sending resources to Israel, especially as they face threats from Hamas, Hezbollah, and Iran. Yet Biden is refusing to ship ammunition to Israel. The only reason for this seems to be Biden’s fear of losing progressive voters in November.
Would Biden risk letting Israel face extinction, just to save his own campaign? Looks that way. He had previously urged Israel to stop its offensive in Gaza to wipe out Hamas and save hostages. Meanwhile, Biden has vowed to spend hundreds of millions of dollars to build a pier in Gaza.
(It seems Hamas, who controls Gaza, never bothered to build a single pier, despite Gaza bordering the Mediterranean Sea.)
Now, with this shocking move, it seems Biden is trying to starve Israel of its offensive capabilities. But if he thought this was going to work, a top Israeli leader just shut him down.
From Fox News:
Former Prime Minister of Israel Naftali Bennett addressed the ongoing conflict between Israel and Hamas and concerns over U.S. involvement and rising antisemitism on “Sunday Night in America.”Bennett assured Fox News host Trey Gowdy that Israel would continue to push the offensive so long as Hamas holds hostages.
“Hamas is, I would say, dedicated to destroying and annihilating Israel. They say it explicitly. They say they’re going to continue trying to kill Jews as long as they exist and they are on our border, so we really have no choice,” Bennett said.
Former Prime Minister of Israel Naftali Bennett made it clear that his nation was not going to stop its offensive until every hostage is freed. Israel’s defensive forces vowed to destroy Hamas after October 7th. Biden’s refusal to support them won’t stop that goal.
Israel has made it clear that they are not only fighting for its survival. Bennett said they are on the front lines of radical Islam, which is a threat to both Europe and America.
Why Biden isn’t doing everything he can to help Israel in this fight is shocking.
Key Takeaways:
- Biden has withheld a shipment of ammunition meant to aid Israel.
- This comes as Biden bends to the demands of antisemitic progressives.
- The former PM of Israel vowed the nation will not stop its war with Hamas.
