Can Israel afford to stand up to America?

Netanyahu is addressing Congress because he has no other option.

There’s no denying the severe tensions between the Biden administration and the Israeli government over the war being waged against Israel by Iran and its proxies.

Last month, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu publicly accused U.S. President Joe Biden of withholding weapons and ammunition from the embattled Jewish state.

Two weeks later, Rep. Michael McCaul (R-Tex.), chairman of the House Foreign Affairs Committee, said the U.S. was withholding from Israel no fewer than seven weapons systems.

Ever since the Oct. 7 Palestinian Arab pogrom in southern Israel, America has been giving to Israel with one hand while chaining it with the other.

The Biden administration has made Israel slow down its attempt to destroy Hamas in Gaza, repeatedly forcing the Israelis into paralyzing ceasefire negotiations that have given Hamas the upper hand and insisting on humanitarian aid supplies, most of which were stolen by Hamas to strengthen itself.

Crucially, the U.S. forced Israel not to take early preemptive action against Hezbollah in Lebanon, where the terror group has embedded among the civilian population around 150,000 rockets and missiles. As a result, there have been hundreds of missile and rocket strikes on northern Israel, with more than 60,000 Israelis displaced from their homes over the past nine months while swathes of the upper Galilee have been burned to the ground.

The Iranian regime has said that if Hezbollah is seriously attacked, Iran will “obliterate” Israel. Hezbollah’s foreign relations chief, Khalil Rizk, said on Al-Manar TV last month: “Is this war now with Israel? My answer is that this is not a war with Israel. Israel is merely a tool. The main war, the real war, is with America.”

Yet astoundingly, the Biden administration wants an empowered Iran to be a key pillar of the future architecture of the Middle East. It purports to believe this will produce “stability.” Accordingly, the U.S. is actually protecting Iran from Israel, the nation that the genocidal Iranian regime has sworn to exterminate.

Earlier this week, The New York Times reported that Netanyahu had pushed Biden hard on the need to hit Iran and avoid looking weak. “Let me be crystal clear,” Biden was said have told Netanyahu in a phone call. “If you launch a big attack on Iran, you’re on your own. You do this and I’m out.”

Accordingly, the U.S. is solemnly “negotiating” with Hezbollah, just as it “negotiated” with Iran. The Bidenites really believe that genocidal fanatics can be reasoned out of their intention to murder, destroy and conquer. This is beyond grotesque.

Hezbollah has to be neutralized. But it has now said that if Israel launches an all-out war against it, this will be a war with Iran.

The only way through this nightmare is to strike the head of the snake itself in Tehran. Israel cannot afford to wait until Haifa or Tel Aviv start sustaining massive casualties from Hezbollah’s vast arsenal or Iran itself. Faced with such an enemy, a preemptive strike that gains the initiative is essential.

But for that to happen, Israel needs America. And it’s far from clear that the Biden administration would come to Israel’s aid even in a war limited to Hezbollah but in which Iran would unleash itself along with its proxies in Iraq, Yemen and the disputed territories of Judea and Samaria.

Against this dire backdrop, Netanyahu is going to America in three weeks’ time to address Congress. Among the many who loathe and distrust him, there is nervousness and criticism that he may make a bad situation even worse by criticizing Biden so close to the presidential election.

... Netanyahu has a moral duty to explain to Congress and the American people the dire consequences of the Biden administration’s appeasement of Iran, why Israel is fighting a war for its survival unlike any other since its foundation and that the seven-front war against it is merely the opening shot in Iran’s war against America and the West.

What Netanyahu’s critics fail to acknowledge is that he is a supremely cautious politician. He rarely airs his grievances with the U.S. in public. When he does so, it signifies desperation. It’s because he feels he has no other option.

@patrician They're worried about an election?  They should worry about Genesis 12:3.

@terry Many Jews know the Old Testament inside and out, and yet they miss that it all points to Jesus. Some Jews are discovering the true Savior now, but the Lord will eventually bring many more of them around...after we are gone. Bibi is a brilliant man. Let’s pray that he opens his eyes if he hasn’t already. 🙏

@erby  I suspect he has but can't go before the people and run the government that way.  He has a line to walk.  Joel Rosenberg was his campaign manager at one time, and I read that Bibi held Bible, not Torah, studies in his home.  One has to assume (hope?) that the author of that article knows the difference.

Amir Tsarfati:

The Israeli Cabinet approved the extension of compulsory military service to three years for the next 8 years.
Earlier, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu instructed Defense Minister Yoav Galant and Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich to agree on the details of the new law, and, after consultations with representatives of the Ministry of Defense, the final version is presented:
- Service life will increase to 36 months for both men and women;
- The temporary order will be valid for 8 years;
- It will affect both soldiers currently serving and everyone who will be called up over the next five years;
- After 8 years, the service life will be reduced again to 32 months.
During the discussion, Secretary of Defense Galant insisted on a 10-year duration of the temporary order, and the Treasury proposed limiting it to 5 years (due to economic consequences).
A final vote on the legislation is expected at the next cabinet meeting on Sunday.
.....
Israel sent a letter to UNRWA with names and ID numbers of 108 Gazan Palestinian humanitarian aid workers of the UN group who are proven to be Hamas and Islamic Jihad active terrorists.
UNRWA has yet to respond.
.....
Only in New York: “Black people are the real Jews”.
It’s refreshing to see that there are still people who really want to be Jews 🤣
.....
Jeremiah the prophet wrote:
Then the word of the Lord came to me, saying:
“Before I formed you in the womb I knew you; Before you were born I sanctified you..."
A baby is a separate human being. A woman doesn’t need a baby in her in order to live.
A baby, however, needs his mother in order to live.
So, the question remains- will you allow him to live or sentence him to death?
Life is a choice! That is why keeping the baby is a both pro-life and pro-choice!
“I call heaven and earth as witnesses today against you, that I have set before you life and death, blessing and cursing; therefore choose life, that both you and your descendants may live;”
(Deuteronomy 30:19)
.....
We are promised an inheritance incorruptible and undefiled and that does not fade away, reserved in heaven for us.
Listen, I tell you a mystery: We will not all sleep, but we will all be changed— in a flash, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trumpet. For the trumpet will sound, the dead will be raised imperishable, and we will be changed. For the perishable must clothe itself with the imperishable, and the mortal with immortality. When the perishable has been clothed with the imperishable, and the mortal with immortality, then the saying that is written will come true: “Death has been swallowed up in victory.”
.....
Israel Finance Minister Smotrich on the looming hostage deal:
Why am I opposed to the hostage deal?  

If we withdraw now, all the work we've done would be in vain, and all the soldiers who sacrificed their lives would have done so for nothing. We now have the chance to finish the job, and we’re expected to stop?

Do you understand what happens if we allow Hamas to regain control of the Philadelphi corridor? It means thousands of terrorists flooding back remaining with still lots of infrastructure. It might be hard, but we can finally get the job done.
..... 
The ultimate victory over Hamas and all the antisemites around the world is to have all Jews move to Israel.
That’s what this country was intended to be. That’s where Jews are intended to be.

Amir Tsarfati:

World War 3 began on October 7.

Immediately after the massacre, way before Israel began the counteroffensive in Gaza, the well-planned and skillfully coordinated protests on U.S. university campuses and on the streets of major cities around the world began.

The war on Israel is not only on Israel. It’s a religious war, a cultural war, and above all a spiritual war. Anyone who is running for president of the United States had better surround himself with a war-savvy people with a steel spine.

This war will find its culmination once Hamas and Hezbollah are defeated, leaving the Iranian ayatollahs’ only chance to contribute to Israel’s annihilation to be through joining a new coalition led by Russia. This will lead to the Big War.

Gog from the land of Magog is getting ready. But don’t worry and don’t fret. The end is known. Read Ezekiel 38 all the way through and find your comfort there.

Amir Tsarfati:

Leaked documents from negotiations with Hamas reveal the militia's demands: monetary compensation, security guarantees for their leaders, safe passage to Turkey, the return of confiscated funds, and the lifting of bans on their foreign bank accounts.

The suffering of Gaza's residents, a result of Hamas' actions, is notably absent from their concerns. Their focus remains solely on money and personal safety.
.....
Fathi Hammad, senior Hamas official: “All of you 7 million Palestinians abroad, enough of the warming up. You have Jews everywhere and we must attack every Jew on the globe by way of slaughter and killing,”

The purest form of genocidal language.
.....
UNRWA:
It will take Gaza about 15 years to clear 40 million tons of rubble caused by the war.
The cost of clearing the ruins is 600 million dollars.
• A land area of ​​305 acres is required to bury debris that cannot be recycled.
• The UN development plan for the reconstruction of Gaza will not be completed before 2040 at a cost of 40 billion dollars.
• Gaza returned to the 1980s, meaning that 44 years of development in Gaza were erased.
• There is no place in Khan Yunis that has not been damaged.
• 137,297 buildings were damaged in Gaza, meaning more than half of the total buildings in Gaza were damaged.
.....
Secret Service director Kimberly Cheatle now admits that the USSS knew the building 125 yards from President Trump was a huge vulnerability, but didn’t station an agent there because it had a “sloped roof.”

“That building in particular has a sloped roof at its highest point. And so, you know, there's a safety factor that would be considered there that we wouldn't want to put somebody up on a sloped roof. And so, you know, the decision was made to secure the building, from inside.”
..... 
The IDF estimates: so far 14,000 terrorists were eliminated in Gaza.
.....
CNN:: The U.S. obtained intel in recent weeks on a plot by Iran to try to assassinate Trump, a development that led to the Secret Service increasing his security before Saturday’s shooting. Plot has no known connection to Crooks, however.

And I am asking, if there was such a threat, why did the Secret Service act so poorly in Pennsylvania?

Horrific news from Israel.

Knesset Member: “There will be no Palestinian State. Not Now. Not Ever!”

Last night, 68 Members of the Knesset from nine different parties, representing more than 80 Knesset Members voted against a Palestinian state.

Knesset member Dan Illouz of the Likud party gave his remarks in English, the full transcript is below:

“A Palestinian state is not just a bad idea – it’s a dangerous one, under any circumstances, but especially now.

“On October 7th, we witnessed pure evil. Hamas terrorists butchered innocent Israelis, children, women, and men in cold blood. And now, there are voices suggesting we reward this savagery with statehood? This is madness.  A Palestinian state would be a reward for terrorism. It tells the world that violence pays off. This cannot happen.

Look at history. Every time we conceded land for peace, we got more terror. The Oslo Accords, the Gaza disengagement, the withdrawal from southern Lebanon – each move brought more bloodshed. Gaza, given to the Palestinian Authority, became a Hamas stronghold. They used it as a launchpad for rockets and murder. We cannot make the same mistake again.

A Palestinian state would put terrorists at our doorstep. Imagine Hamas rockets not just from Gaza, but from the heart of Judea and Samaria. Tel Aviv, Jerusalem, our airports – all within easy range of their terror. Can we afford this? Absolutely not.

And what about our history? Bethlehem, Hebron, Shechem – these are the cradle of Jewish civilization. Handing them over is not just a territorial compromise. It’s a betrayal of our ancestors, our identity, our soul.

Showing strength is the true way to move the whole region, and the whole world, forward. It will allow for the expansion of the Abraham Accords and turn Israel into a center of world trade, connecting East to West. The future can be bright, but only if we show strength. Those who believe that dangerous concessions will bring peace need to learn history. Only strength brings real peace, development, and when good actors are strong, then the future is brighter.

So let’s be unequivocal: There will be no Palestinian state. Not now. Not ever. We owe this to our children. We owe it to our ancestors. We owe it to the future of Israel and the free world.”
