National Security Minister responds to US President's claim Israel's government the most extreme ever on Judea and Samaria
National Security Minister Itamar Ben Gvir spoke at an event honoring the Chabad movement in the Knesset today (Monday) during which he responded to the latest criticism of the Israeli government by US President Joe Biden.
"The things that US President (Biden) said yesterday, the US is a wonderful friend to us and we love (the Americans). But I say from here to President Biden: 'The Land of Israel is for the People of Israel, according to the Torah of Israel," Ben-Gvir said...

Biden says the "extreme" members impede a solution to the Israel-Palestinian dispute.
Biden needs to stfu with his Nazi style remarks and this includes his evil a
Appointees.
I believe the real author of these remarks is BHO or one of his surrogates. Biden is simply a joke.
Not the first time. When Biden Met Begin The young senator clashed with the old Israeli prime minister.
Mr. Biden and Begin once clashed, in a private June 1982 session with the Senate Foreign Relations Committee. Mr. Biden, 39, lectured the 68-year-old Begin over Israeli settlements, jabbing his finger at the prime minister and banging his fist on the desk. Mr. Biden warned that eroding support for Israel threatened U.S. aid. Israel was at war in Lebanon and far more dependent on American assistance than it is today.
Begin wouldn’t be cowed. “Don’t threaten us with cutting off aid to give up our principles,” he shouted back, according to Time magazine. Former Sen. Bob Packwood of Oregon later recalled that Begin went further: “I’m not a Jew with trembling knees,” he reminded Mr. Biden.
In the lore that has since developed, Begin’s response supposedly continued: “I am a proud Jew with 3,700 years of civilized history. Nobody came to our aid when we were dying in the gas chambers and ovens. Nobody came to our aid when we were striving to create our country. We paid for it. We fought for it. We died for it. We will stand by our principles. We will defend them. And, when necessary, we will die for them again, with or without your aid.”
We don’t know exactly what Begin said in the closed session. But the meeting was fiery. “I’ve never seen such an angry session with a foreign head of state.” said Massachusetts Sen. Paul Tsongas. “It was a lively discussion,’’ Mr. Begin told the press afterward. “If you want to use other adjectives . . .” He paused, then reconsidered: “Lively is enough.’’
Presumably Biden didn't invite Begin to go behind the gym.
Begin was one tough cookie I did read his book “The Revolt” when I was a teenager.
If Biden had, Begin would have clobbered him.
He sure talks like Obummer.
Moshe Dayan said that the worst mistake Israel ever made was creating an occupation rather than annexing the territory it needed and then leaving the Palestinians to their own misery.
Biden like so many on the left hates Israel
