Clueless Joe said DON'T !
Biden to Iran: Don’t attack Israel (youtube.com) (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f5GLqHn5uAE)
And Iran did .

Joe ;the leader of the free world ,had to cut his beach weekend short.

So he could return to the WH; phone Bibi ,and tell him it was an Israeli victory because most of the missiles and drones Iran launched were intercepted and no major target was struck .

Then he told Bibi Don't
Biden tells Netanyahu US will not engage in offensive against Iran, calls Saturday a win for Israel: report (nypost.com) (https://nypost.com/2024/04/14/world-news/biden-tells-netanyahu-us-will-not-engage-in-offensive-against-iran-calls-saturday-a-win-for-israel-report/)
What would the US do if hundreds of missiles and drones were launched at the US by a neighboring country ? What did the US do when a terrorist group attacked us and killed almost 3,000 Americans ? .......(to put it in perspective .......October 7 Israel with a much smaller nation that is so small that many Americans have longer commutes to work than the width of Israel .....whereas most Americans did not know the 9-11 victims ; almost every Israeli family was directly affected ).
No nation dared telling us our response should be restrained .
Iran has been waging war against Israel for years with proxies . But now they have played their card . There can be no longer any doubt that Israel is under attack directly by Iran.

During his phony Holocaust Day address .Clueless Joe gave unwavering support for Israel. Before the pablum left his lips ;he betrayed our most important ally in the region by unilaterally denying them shipments of weapons because Israel actually wants to defeat the enemy that attacked them on October 7.
He says he will only send "defensive " weapons to Israel. He is holding back precision munitions that the IDF could use in Gaza in an attempt to limit Palestinian civilian casualties .
BUT that is likely to result in Israel using dumber bombs ;which in turn would lead to MORE Casualties .
Biden’s Pause on Weapons Tests Ties to Israel - The New York Times (nytimes.com) (https://www.nytimes.com/2024/05/08/us/politics/biden-bombs-israel.html)
He claims they use the precision bombs to target civilians . That is a disgusting lie right out of the Hamas playbook.
There is good and bad Senator Lindsey Graham. On this issue he is right on .

Impeachment Count 2
.
... President Trump—acting both directlyand through his agents within and outside the United StatesGovernment—conditioned two official acts on the public announcements that hehad requested— (A) the release of $391 million of United States taxpayer funds thatCongress had appropriated on a bipartisan basis for the purpose ofproviding vital military and security assistance to Ukraine to opposeRussian aggression and which President Trump had ordered suspended;
BILLS-116hres755enr.pdf (congress.gov) (https://www.congress.gov/116/bills/hres755/BILLS-116hres755enr.pdf)
Hmmmm..... "for political proposes"; he(temporarily) withheld weapons that had been appropriated and approved by Congress , for a country that had been attacked by a hostile nation.
Even though a transcript of the phone conversation was released ;the House of Reps used the conversation between Trump and Zelensky (after deleting over 500 words of the transcript) as a pretext to impeach. The partisan House voted to impeach and send it to the Senate for a trial ;which they gladly did even though they knew they would not get a conviction.
That was not the point . The point was to brand Trump as the 1st impeached President running for reelection.
Forget the fact that Quid Pro Joe (10% for the big guy) is on tape bragging that as VP he threatened to withhold weapons to Ukraine until a prosecutor; who was investigating a company his son was taking bribes from ;was fired .
User Clip: Biden Tells Story of Getting the Ukraine Prosecutor Fired | C-SPAN.org (https://www.c-span.org/video/?c4820105/user-clip-biden-tells-story-ukraine-prosecutor-fired)
All that leads to is further proof of the Dem double standard .
Michigan is a swing state ;and Joe needs the Muslim constituency there ;and those rabid antisemitic students in his base if he has any chance of winning.
Stabbing Israel in the back will be a small price to pay. He can always make amends after an election victory.
Even the lead Dems running the impeachment of Trump ;Adam Schiffhead and Jamie Raskin ,who both happen to be Jewish, are fine with his betrayal.

At some point it begins to be difficult to know how to respond to your posts. They are well documented and doubtless true. The lone remaining liberal dem on this site, being Wondergirl, has evidently given up the fight and gone elsewhere. All I can say is the "amen" to your fine sermon.

I've been a registered Republican all my long life since about age 18. I haven't posted because I've been working through some serious medical issues -- hospitalization, echocardiograms, AFib, shock treatment on my heart, dehydration, and a kidney stone yet to be dealt with. Glad you miss me!

Sorry to hear of that. Hope you get well soon. God bless you in your recovery.
Sorry to apparently mislabel you as a liberal dem. I guess I was fooled by your unerring support of all things liberal and your consistent support of all liberal dem candidates including an overweight porn author. Go figure! (<;

Quid Pro Joe is a slime. At first I bought into the notion that his position on Israel was cynical politics. But now I have to wonder who is buying him .
He tried withholding precision bombs ;which means that Israel would need to continue their Gaza offensive with dumb bombs guaranteed to increase civilian collateral damage.
Not deterred ;Israel began it's next stage of the war last week ;an incursion into Hamas last stronghold in Rafah .
Now Joe is offering vital intel about the location of Hamas leaders and tunnels in exchange for Israel to cease it's Rafah campaign.
U.S. offers Israel intelligence, supplies in effort to avoid Rafah invasion - The Washington Post (https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/2024/05/11/us-israel-rafah-invasion-palestinians-evacuation/)
If the US has this information ;and is truly concerned about civilians being caught in the cross fire ;then why have we held onto this info for so long? I'm sure if the info is true ;and it is new info for Israel ;then they could've spared a lot of civilians .
It almost sounds like Quid wants the war prolonged ;and more civilians killed.

This is from the letter GW Bush sent Israeli PM Ariel Sharon prior to Israel's hand over of Gaza to the Palestinians 2005 .
Third, Israel will retain its right to defend itself against terrorism, including to take actions against terrorist organizations. The United States will lead efforts, working together with Jordan, Egypt, and others in the international community, to build the capacity and will of Palestinian institutions to fight terrorism, dismantle terrorist organizations, and prevent the areas from which Israel has withdrawn from posing a threat that would have to be addressed by any other means.
Letter From President Bush to Prime Minister Sharon (archives.gov) (https://georgewbush-whitehouse.archives.gov/news/releases/2004/04/20040414-3.html)
This principle was ratified by large majorities in both houses of Congress.

Does it look to you like the US is "leading the fight "against terrorists in Gaza ? Does it look like the US is trying to prevent Gaza from being a base to attack Israel ? Is it really in the US best interests renegue on one security commitment and strategic partnership after another as has happened since Clueless Joe assumed command ?

Yesterday was Israel's Memorial Day .
Yom Hazikaron in Israel | Tourist Israel (https://www.touristisrael.com/yom-hazikaron-in-israel/6019/)
What better way to honor their war dead by bashing the state. Clueless Joe sent out Sec State Blinken to do the hatchet job.
No 'credible plan': U.S.' Blinken criticizes Israel's Gaza operations (cnbc.com) (https://www.cnbc.com/2024/05/13/no-credible-plan-us-blinken-criticizes-israels-operations-in-gaza.html)
"It's reasonable to assess that in a number of instances, Israel has not acted in a manner that is consistent with international humanitarian law," Blinken said Sunday on CBS.
Blinken says US review of Israel weapons use in Gaza ongoing (usatoday.com) (https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/world/israel-hamas/2024/05/12/blinken-israel-gaza-weapons-review/73662574007/)
That's diplomat speak for calling Israel war criminals .
Selective application of international law is consistent with the State Dept. For the Sec State to bring it up on Israel's Memorial day is despicable .
