Biden-Harris, now effectively Harris-Walz, are willing to give up anything – including Israel’s security and future, money and political kowtowing to Iran, and acceptance of false Hamas promises – to get an Israeli-Hamas ceasefire. Why? Because they own this war, and the world knows it.
Core reasons explain these faithless, fraudulent promises Biden-Harris– call it the Harris-Walz crowd – are making to the world, the American public, Israel, European allies, and even Palestinians.
After creating conditions that facilitated, actually invited, Iran’s surrogates to boldly attack Israel, including billions in money for Iran, lifting Trump’s sanctions, terror unpunished, Biden-Harris then sent mixed signals about US defense of Israel after October 7’s terror attacks on Israel.
Wavering between support and slowed weapons deliveries, condemning Israel then fawning on them, staying silent as US campuses got overrun with anti-Semitism and Hamas violence, then finally opposing political violence (tired words about January 6th), they snubbed Israel’s leader.
The world – and the entire American electorate – are watching, as two things happen.
First, Iran is growing bolder, and their terrorist surrogates – Hezbollah, Hamas, Houthis, Iraqi, Syrian, and Lebanese groups – are preparing to hit Israel harder, widen the conflict, and go global.
Second, Biden-Harris, really Harris-Walz, realize they may be held to account for the erosion of Israeli and Jewish safety, for widening Mideast violence, a nuclear Iran, and chaos in the US.
To rebut this avalanche of coming condemnation, to somehow delay, deflect, and distract from this widening horror and chaos before November, they have a new policy: Get the ceasefire, at all costs.
Accordingly, Biden, on behalf of Harris-Walz, is pretending a ceasefire is close. He rushes to put out the fire he started and claims Hamas is almost there while offering just about anything to get that deal.
To be blunt, Biden-Harris-Walz need a ceasefire to avert uncontrolled escalation of Iranian-initiated violence in the Mideast, and to prevent the steaming mess being put – as it should be – at their feet.
Observe: Harris is unable to speak in detail about anything, foreign, domestic, or border-related, all fast converging. Walz ducks the Mideast, as close to protestors, paper-thin on national security.
Meanwhile, Biden announces, “We’re closer than we’ve ever been,” promising his flop of a Secretary of State is on “intensive efforts to conclude this agreement.” Israel shrugs, and Hamas laughs.
To pretend he is fixing the mess he started, pushed to save the Harris-Walz ticket the way they pushed him to give up the nomination, Biden now promises Hamas anything, will pressure Israel. The whole process is a fraud, put up job, presented as something it is not, just politically craven.
Ironically, even Hamas knows it. They watch Biden-Harris-Walz betray one of America’s closest allies, watch appeasement grow, and ask for more, come to the table, walk away, come back, demand more, mocking Biden in public, making a fool of America, like trading in a Turkish bazaar.
Meanwhile, multiple Hamas “spokesmen” in recent days have laughed at Biden. They know Israel has no interest, except in the overpromised return of hostages, even say Biden is “selling illusions,” and “no progress” has been made. Never mind, Biden will gild the lily, and create a self-fulfilling prophecy.
Bottom line: Biden-Harris-Walz need this ceasefire, will betray Israel and favor Hamas to get it.
Robert Charles is a former Assistant Secretary of State under Colin Powell, former Reagan and Bush 41 White House staffer, attorney, and naval intelligence officer (USNR). He wrote “Narcotics and Terrorism” (2003), “Eagles and Evergreens” (2018), and is National Spokesman for AMAC.
There is no ceasefire to stop the enraged beast. Appeasement cajoling, ingratiating ,smiles and handshakes do not work when dealing with a thug. After more than 70 years it should be clear even to a mentally not so bright. What would happen should there be enough sense to tell the thug enough is enough, no more. – What is the purpose of UN and isn’t it time to fire them all, prison is the place for them for all the evil they’ve support it.
Democrats are clueless. They are especially clueless when it comes to a real crisis, but they are most clueless when it is a crisis that they themselves created. It is evident in the fact that any solution they devise is far worse than the crisis itself, whether it be Covid, the economy, inflation or international affairs.
There is one and only one thing democrats do well. and that is lying.
Why are they not trying to achieve a cease fire in Ukraine where casualties, civilian and military, are significantly higher and the cost to US taxpayers is in the hundreds of billions of dollars?
The US should defend its border against millions of invaders instead of financing wars on the other side of the world with a $2 trillion deficit.
Anyone calling for a ceasefire in Gaza needs to take it up with Hamas because THEY”RE THE ONES WHO STARTED ALL THIS ON OCTOBER 7, 2023! The only way I would even remotely consider supporting a ceasefire is if , after they’re defeated, Hamas does the following: 1. Hamas must release EVERY SINGLE HOSTAGE unharmed. 2. Lay down their arms. 3. give up EVERYONE involved in the October 7th massacre for punishment from the terrorists who actually it out to the people who actually planned it to the people who harbor the perpetrators. Unless and until these things happen I will support Israel’s right to defend itself and whatever they have to do to accomplish their goals.
RBC, unfortunately, you are correct about the Demos plans for deserting Israel and how its enemies are gloating over the opportunity to create more havoc in the Middle East. No matter what terms are set, Islamic militants will ignore it and initiate new terrors on Israel. On the other hand, God knows already what is in the works and will display his POWER at the appropriate time so NO NATION CAN TAKE CREDIT for His work, especially the USA. It is definitely the end times for the Church age.
Here’s a word you never hear about when they talk of ceasefires, feeding hungry Gazans, or “two-state solutions”: HOSTAGES. Any if these POS remember them?
The motions Harris/Walz will go through to make a false impression are making a very negative one. They’re telling the world , on a high-visibility stage, that they’re interfering in this volatile situation to help themselves before an election. They’re also telling the world that they’re a pair of pedestrian, snake oil salespeople instead of world leaders. They’re telling the world that they don’t take take Hamas’ terrorism against Israeli citizens seriously.
From the looks of our border, these two surely don’t seem to take American citizenship seriously, either… as they claim to be “saving democracy” while allowing criminals to cross into our country to commit horrible crimes… and to vote for them.
Excellent article. Biden and Harris have Betrayed/Sold Out the American public and our country. So why would it be a surprise that they wouldn’t selling out Israel? They will do anything for power and control including bribery for votes.
The Jewish people are God’s Chosen People.
The USA must stand with Israel!
God Bless Israel!
God Bless America!
TRUMP/VANCE 2024!
They never really intended to support Israel. All obvious and a lie. With the rejection of their stupid cease fire proposal by Hamas today on the usual insincere grounds they are left with blaming Israel with trying to survive when surrounded by hostile terrorists with an intransigeant USA regime.
There is no way any of these middle eastern groups will honor any kind of deal. Whatever happens there spills over to most of the world, especially the US (as it already has).
And the Bible did prophesize of the beginning…
and the end.
It was mentioned that chaos here in the United States could be one of the results of incompetence in dealing with the Middle East situation — specifically the Israel defense situation. People here in America ,who have never been to the Middle East ,but who care about principles care about what is just, what is fair, fortunately have this AMAC forum to help in understanding what is going on . I have never been to the Middle East but ever since September 11, 2001 I have realized that it is of great importance to be informed of developments in parts of this world that could bring chaos to this Country.. Prior to 2001 my interests in foreign countries involved some western European countries, Canada and Taiwan, the Republic of China. Plans to do something in connection with the shipping industry and navigation equipment specifically. Never got to Taiwan ,change of plans ,did travel to a few western European countries and Canada though. Came to the conclusion that shipbuilding here in the United States should be a priority issue and America should be among the leaders in that field as it has so much to do with security — in times of war or peace.. So, the idea that an ally such as Israel can be subjected to the less than sincere efforts to help in defense is a situation that needs to be corrected. All efforts should be directed to be able to stand by Israel — in the interest of doing what is honorable and right.
