There was a time when the United States government supported Israel unconditionally; when the executive and legislative branches were united in their support of Israel, the only democracy in the region; and when our leaders unflinchingly called out the PLO, Hamas, Hezbollah, etc. for what they are: terrorists committed to the destruction of Israel.
But sadly, those days are gone. The United States now has abandoned Israel and her safety. While this has been a discussion for months (and some believe years), recent actions demonstrate it all too clearly.
Let's start first with Congress. We are all aware of how the House has welcomed Jew- and America-hating people like Ilhan Omar, Rashida Tlaib, and Ayanna Pressley. How these vitriolic anti-Semites have been allowed to spew their hatred without censure or any repercussions. How their disdain and vitriol against the United States itself has been accepted and even welcomed in the halls of Congress.
But now the Senate has fully joined in on the anti-Israel bandwagon. An amendment was proposed and voted on today that would prohibit any more aid to the Palestinian Authority or any governing body in the West Bank or Gaza until President Joe Biden certifies that, among other things, the Palestinian Authority would:
Publicly renounce Hamas and condemn the October 7 attacks
Formally recognize the right of Israel to exist as a Jewish state
Publicly recognize the State of Israel
Remove all security personnel with ties to terrorist organizations
Fully terminate all funding for anti-Israel and anti-American actions
Release any hostages being kept in areas controlled by the P.A.
It would seem that it would be a no-brainer for the Senate to demand this in exchange for the hundreds of millions of dollars in aid to the Palestinian Authority. But this amendment was thoroughly rejected.

We’re losing our own nation. We don’t have the money, time, or manpower to help Israel until we can recover our own nation.
I’m worried about both America 🇺🇸 and Israel 🇮🇱. Anyone who goes against Israel 🇮🇱 goes against God Himself, and you don’t want to do that. Just ask HAMas.
RE: The Israelis can take care of themselves without an entangling alliance with us.
OK, what about Biden and his team SHUTTING THE F UP and not give Israel anymore advise or pressure regarding what she ought to do against Hamas?
Is that too much to ask?
Ok
I don’t believe the headline at all
At the same time while Biden isn’t best friends with Bibi. STILL DURING the same time sold them a literal sh1t ton of weapons to our own stockpile detriment.
It is no surprise that democRATS / DemoKKKrats are against Israel. The Party of Hate never sleeps.
RE: STILL DURING the same time sold them a literal sh1t ton of weapons
SOLD, NOT GIVE, unlike Ukraine. We can use that money to replenish our stockpiles.
Not overnight.
When will our Republican Congressmen stop blocking aid to Israel?
The Reagan Republicans supporting “peace through strength” seem to be long gone...
Sad world we are living in.
Joe Biden may be the last Democrat to align with the pro-Israel bloc in the Democratic Party (other than the Jewish Democrats).
I believe the Israelis learned long ago that you can fully count on the US government being on your side and depend on that except when you can’t.
Famous and disputed quote:
George W. Bush: The Jews aren’t going to like it.
Sec. of State James Baker: F#$% the Jews. They don’t vote for us anyway.
Our biggest problem in attempting to crawl out of this grave is the central evil socialist government and the Congress. Congress and the complicated courts system are peopled by those who are paid out of the bankrupted treasury. They are all company men and women.
Why they are screwing America is due to their evil desire for a world government. They placate us with phony hearings where they grill useful nitwit and we think ‘gee. They’re doing their job.
There’s only a handful of politicos who serve with honor and one wonders if they know where all this kabuki is leading.
Since the majority of the government hates and fears him Trump could be our nation’s savior. We can’t look toward our military as it’s now larded with queers and tinhorns.
Honestly, I'm now looking at FR mainly to see what the ingnorati are thinking about Israel (and Ukraine).
Like they say nowadays, “It’s dangerous to be an enemy of the United States, but it’s fatal to by its friend”.
“Is that too much to ask?”
Yup, it is.
As the spirit and core of America dies, so does the thing that made America great - liberty, rights and freedom.
As we die, we take the religious support that created the liberty, rights and freedom away with us.
The fools who took us to this point won’t like the regression of what comes after America.
That’s not even possible
Not only delusional but badly distorts what the scripture actually says
Biden and company are “the main internal enemy” to America!!!
Maybe when the *Israelis* actually ask for it? Remember, the Israeli government does not want the strings that Biden wants to attach to the aid. I mean seriously, who in the region actually supports a two state solution?
