Benjamin Netanyahu has many skills that have allowed him to survive so long as Israel’s prime minister, defying domestic rivals and international critics. But one skill in particular makes him indispensable: his ability to stand up to bad American policies. Right now, that bad policy is a Palestinian state. Giving the Palestinians a state after the Palestinian terrorist group known as Hamas carried out the biggest mass murder of Jews since the Holocaust would reward terror and create terrible incentives. What Biden does not understand, or chooses to ignore, is the fact that nearly two-thirds of Israelis now oppose a Palestinian state — a complete reversal from a decade ago, when nearly two-thirds supported one. Rockets, and terror, have changed their minds. Obama’s big idea was the Iran nuclear deal, a complete sham that allowed the Iranian regime to emerge as a nuclear power after a decade or so, and that gave it potentially hundreds of billions of dollars that it could use to fund its terror operations worldwide. Netanyahu had the audacity to oppose the nuclear deal. Israel was supposed to stay quiet, like Czechoslovakia at Munich in 1938, another small democratic nation cut out from the high-level diplomatic maneuverings that would ultimately determine its fate. With that history in mind, Netanyahu spoke out against the Iran deal from every available platform, even delivering a speech in Congress against Obama’s proposal. He was not opposed to any deal, but rejected one that put his own people in grave danger. Netanyahu could do that because he is, in a sense, American: he went to high school in Pennsylvania, studied at MIT, and speaks English fluently, without an accent, albeit with a deep Israeli baritone. He knows how to appeal directly to the American people. Netanyahu has held onto power because he has convinced a broad coalition of right-wing parties, who together represent the majority of Israeli citizens, that he is the only person capable of governing when Israel faces pressure from its strongest ally. And the world needs him. Because he is right about a Palestinian state — as he was right about the Iran deal, and many other mistakes. Rewarding terror would make us all more unsafe. Ironically, the more Biden attacks him, the more powerful he is. KS Rajan on Five Doves, Pompeo: The Backward Belief Of A Two-State Solution: As Olivier Melnick recently underscored, “As much as the Palestinian narrative has wanted us to believe it was, this was never about the land. This has always been about the complete annihilation of the Jewish people and the complete eradication of the State of Israel from the world map.” Hal Lindsey likewise wrote: “Even if [Netanyahu] can depose Hamas, the nature of this conflict means that a similar group will arise. Hatred against Israel is not about land, rights, or money. It is a tenet of [Islamic] faith.” Rewarding terrorists with land and autonomy couldn’t possibly bring peace to the region. So why are the Biden administration and numerous world leaders championing this “solution”? The answer is found in Scripture. A two-state solution advocates for the dividing of Jerusalem, with the east portion of the city being given to the Palestinians for their state capital. God told the prophet Zechariah that a time would come when Israel is re-established, and the world would be fixated on the idea of dividing the Jewish State, specifically Jerusalem. In Zechariah 12:3, God warned the nations: “And in that day will I make Jerusalem a burdensome stone for all people: all that burden themselves with it shall be cut in pieces, though all the people of the earth be gathered together against it.” https://harbingersdaily.com/pompeo-the-backward-belief-of-a-two-state-solution/ The son of Hamas’ co-founder speaks out on why Hamas needs to be eradicated: Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu defied U.S. President Joe Biden on Sunday by submitting a resolution to his government opposing a Palestinian state imposed from outside, and having the resolution endorsed unanimously.
