The Biden administration is perplexed by what it views as a major overreaction by Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to cancel a planned Israeli delegation to Washington in response to the US allowing a UN Security Council resolution calling for a ceasefire and hostage release to be adopted, according to a US official. Briefing a small group of reporters, the official speculates that the move by Netanyahu had more to do with Israeli domestic politics. US President Joe Biden has no plans to call Netanyahu about the cancellation nor did Netanyahu call Biden about it in advance, the official adds.

I rushed to hope that the U.S. would turn the Gaza port initiative into the first step in the move toward its comprehensive peace vision, in cooperation with the UAE, Saudi Arabia, Israel, Jordan, and the Palestinian Authority. This was all based on the hope that Qatar, which is Hamas, would be ousted from any role in it, since it is a sponsor of Islamist terrorism worldwide. My hope was indeed consistent with the first reports about the port initiative. I termed it a "port of hope" and considered it a miracle that the Biden administration would take an actual...

Friday was a day that ended in a “y,” and so it was another occasion for leftist virtue-signaling. Old Joe Biden’s ghostwriter wrote on X: “On the International Day to Combat Islamophobia, we recognize the hate that Muslims face because of their beliefs and the ugly resurgence of Islamophobia following the war in Gaza. Let us rededicate ourselves to a world where people of all faiths are free to live without fear.” Biden hasn’t said a word, however, about the hate that Jews face from Muslims themselves. And it’s no wonder: such talk would clash with the left’s narrative.In that...

Democrat Party media hacks flipping out for being called out as the anti-Israel haters they are. As they use Hamas numbers, trash Netanyahu, and back Biden’s horrendous war on Israel. How dare Trump or anyone notice such flagrant and grotesque behavior by these frauds.Dana Bash and the other narcissistic media Democrats must be called out for what they’re doing and saying. Never Again must anyone be intimidated into silence while they spew their disgusting poison. No more. No more 1940s New York Times-like betrayal of the Jews by media self-haters.https://mediaite.com/news/cnns-dana-bash-unflinchingly-rips-trump-anti-semitic-and-incredibly-dangerous-comment-about-jews-calling-it-what-it-is

The Biden Administration is reporting preparing to allow a Hamas-linked contractor to participate in the construction of the floating port that the U.S. military is preparing to build off the coast of Gaza to assist the delivery of humanitarian aid. The shocking report comes from Baruch Yedid, the Arab affairs correspondent for Israel’s Channel 14, who reported that the Biden administration had asked Qatar to finance the project. Qatar agreed, on condition that the project be performed by the Al Hissi company, a company with close ties to Hamas, and which has been the primary contractor within Gaza under Hamas...

Every aspect of this story is bad, and each horrifying aspect is competing with the others for which can have the most negative consequences for the American people. After Jews suffered attacks in Chicago, the Biden regime reached out not to Jewish leaders, but to Muslim groups, including open supporters of Hamas. The Muslims, however, enraged at the regime’s continued (albeit hollow) support for Israel, refused to show. Then a Biden regime wonk lied brazenly and denied that one of the worst of the Muslim groups was even invited. This is the state of our staggered, sputtering republic in the...

President Biden told Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu Monday that sending Israeli troops into the southern Gaza city of Rafah would be a “mistake” — just three days after Biden praised Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer’s incendiary speech calling for the Jewish state to hold a “new election” and oust Netanyahu following the war against Hamas. “A major ground operation would be a mistake,” national security adviser Jake Sullivan told reporters that Biden, 81, stressed to Netanyahu, citing concerns about civilian safety in the city of more than 150,000 situated near the Egyptian border. Biden didn’t make “threats,” Sullivan added...

National Security Advisor Jake Sullivan told reporters at the White House on Monday that President Joe Biden had spoken with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to oppose Israeli plans to attack Hamas in the city of Rafah. Sullivan added that the president had asked Netanyahu an “interagency” team of military, defense, and humanitarian officials by “the beginning of next week” to meet with U.S. officials in Washington and negotiate over a Rafah operation. He said that the Biden Administration might approve limited, targeted strikes in Rafah, but would refuse a broader Israeli invasion of the town, saying that such an...

President Joe Biden praised Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY) on Friday for his speech Thursday in which he demanded new elections in Israel to replace Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu during the war. Biden answered a reporter’s question about the speech as he hosted Irish Prime Minister Leo Varadkar at the White House. He said: “Senate Schumer contacted my staff, my senior staff, that he was going to make that speech, and he, I am not going to elaborate on the speech. He made a good speech. And I think he expressed a serious concern, shared not only by...

JERUSALEM —As Joe Biden pushes to empower the Palestinian Authority .. the PA has committed tens of millions of dollars for terrorists who were killed or captured while carrying out Hamas’ Oct. 7 terror attack on Israel and the resulting war. Since Oct. 7, the PA has doubled down on its longstanding "pay for slay" policy, which gives salaries and benefits to Palestinians imprisoned for involvement in violence against Israel and to the families of those killed in "the revolution" against the Jewish state. The policy does not distinguish between terrorists and civilians. But based on Israel Defense Forces estimates...

The Biden administration suppressed information about Iran’s efforts to assassinate U.S. officials to ensure Congress and the American public were kept in the dark, according to a lawmaker on the Senate Foreign Relations Committee. "What Americans don’t know is that the Biden administration has gone to great lengths to hide the extent and persistence of those threats" from Iran, Sen. Ted Cruz (R., Texas) said during a Senate hearing Wednesday on Tehran’s network of terror proxies. Those threats include active plots to assassinate former secretary of state Mike Pompeo and other top U.S. officials. The administration has been "abusing the...

President Biden said Friday that the United States will begin airdrops of humanitarian aid into Gaza amid negotiations for a temporary ceasefire in the Israel-Hamas conflict. Biden confirmed the planned airdrops during an Oval Office meeting with the prime minister of Italy. The effort will provide humanitarian assistance to Palestinians in Gaza as watchdogs and aid agencies have warned of increasingly dire circumstances there as Israel carries out military operations throughout the enclave. The airdrops are seen as a way for the U.S. to get aid into the area while officials continue efforts to broker a ceasefire between Israel and...

After promising that Hamas wouldn't get the aid and denying that Hamas was taking the aid.When the Biden administration pressured Israel to open up more aid to the Hamas territories, it swore that the aid would not fall into the hands of Hamas. “If Hamas in any way blocks humanitarian assistance from reaching civilians, including by seizing the aid itself, we’ll be the first to condemn it. And we will work to prevent it from happening again,” Secretary of State Blinken pledged. Deputy National Security Advisor Jon Finer assured CNN that “the president was quite clear that if this assistance...

It has been clear for quite some time that the Biden regime, despite its show of support for Israel, is really on the side of Hamas. Now the regime is in serious talks to respond to Hamas’ brutal and inhuman murder of 1,200 Israelis on Oct. 7, 2023 by giving it the biggest reward of all: a Palestinian state.If you are skeptical that Old Joe and his henchmen are really on Hamas’ side, consider the fact that, in November, they enabled the release of ten billion dollars in frozen funds to the Islamic Republic of Iran, Hamas’ primary financier. That...

Prime Minister Netanyahu’s Office: “Now is not the time to be speaking about gifts for the Palestinian people.” The Biden administration is planning to reward the Palestinians for the October 7 massacre by enabling them to create a state with its capital in East Jerusalem, a report published by The Washington Post on Wednesday indicates.Barely four months after Hamas terrorists slaughtered 1200 Israelis as they raped and pillaged their way through Jewish communities in southern Israel, the Biden White House has reportedly joined hands with Arab states and the European Union to clear the path for statehood for Palestinians —...

A senior United Nations official defended the decision by President Joe Biden to limit his response to the Yemen Houthi terrorist organization to a weak “global terrorist” branding, claiming the move can help “safeguard many transactions necessary for our humanitarian activities.” The official – Edem Wosornu, the director of operations at the Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs – added, however, that even this minimal action could hurt the destitute economy of Yemen and thus elevate the humanitarian needs of civilians. Biden’s administration announced that he would brand Ansarullah, the official name of the Houthi terrorist gang, a “Specially...

His Fraudulency Joe Biden is losing a crucial part of the Arab vote in Michigan, and if Biden loses Michigan, he will almost certainly lose his reelection bid. “Since October 7, many Arab Americans in Michigan have become increasingly furious with Mr Biden over his support for Israel and have vowed not to vote for him again,” reports the National. “The situation could prove consequential for Mr Biden in the battleground state he narrowly won last time. The story goes on to report that Biden is so concerned about losing Dearborn’s Arab vote that he sent “senior administration officials last...

The Biden administration, after urging by left-wing Democrats, issued a memorandum Thursday that will require Israel to submit a report within 45 days on its compliance with international humanitarian law in its war against Hamas terrorists in Gaza. The memorandum, announced by the White House, theoretically applies to any country that receives weapons from the United States and is actively involved in armed conflict. But the White House all but admitted Friday that it was targeted at Israel.

Senior officials in the Biden administration are being deployed “to Michigan on Thursday to meet with Arab-American and Muslim leaders” in the swing state as the war between Israel and the terrorist organization Hamas continues to splinter the left, according to the Associated Press. The visit also comes as President Joe Biden is vulnerable in the Wolverine State and trails former President Donald Trump in several Michigan polls published in recent months. The Associated Press was the first to report on Thursday’s impending meeting, citing three sources familiar with the plans. At the gathering, Biden aides will be met with...
