“A Grave Mistake”

What set off Biden’s latest “stab in the back” was the tragic deaths of several members of a well-known aid group, World Central Kitchens.

There is no way that the Israel Defense Forces intentionally struck that group. It is beyond the realm of possibility that Israel deliberately attacked an aid group. 

But, of course, the media, the United Nations, and Israel’s enemies are all insinuating that it was intentional and a war crime. 

The IDF immediately investigated the incident and has released its initial findings, calling the strike “a grave mistake.” Two officers have been fired, and two senior commanders have been reprimanded.

But the White House is furious because they know this incident makes it even more challenging for them to keep the Hamas wing of the progressive movement in line in places like Michigan and Minnesota.

Benjamin Netanyahu doesn’t need advice from Joe Biden. He has a history of being wrong, including opposing the raid to take out Osama bin Laden.

Here’s more history. 

Biden ignored the advice of his generals and royally screwed up his retreat from Afghanistan. Among other things, he turned over security to the Taliban. Predictably, 13 American troops were killed, and many more were grievously wounded by a homicide bombing at Kabul airport’s Abbey Gate. 

In the aftermath of that self-inflicted wound, Biden pressured the Pentagon to help him look tough. So, they gave him a target of what they thought was an Islamic extremist, and Biden ordered a drone strike.

We ended up killing a family of ten, including seven children.

Did Benjamin Netanyahu berate the United States then? Did Israeli officials call Taliban leaders to make it clear that Israel had nothing to do with those deaths, and that it was all on us? Of course, not.

Biden’s criticism of Israel is tremendously hypocritical, and it is doing incalculable damage to the U.S.-Israel alliance and the Netanyahu government that will be difficult to repair.

All of this – the call to Netanyahu, the public berating of Netanyahu, the call to Iran – is happening as Iran and its allies are observing Al Quds Day. That holiday, celebrated by Islamic supremacists, is dedicated to the destruction of Israel and the celebration they look forward to when all of Jerusalem is conquered in jihad.

We know what would happen to Israeli Jews if that day ever came.

Everything Joe Biden has done in the last 72 hours has demoralized our most reliable ally and emboldened our sworn enemies, making it far more likely that something horrible will happen in the days ahead.
