While Israel is crippling Hezbollah and preparing to strike Iran, the Biden-Harris administration is continuing to undermine the Jewish State’s war against Iran and its proxies in multiple ways.
Trying to restrain Israel’s counter-attack on Iran
The United States and Arab countries are currently in talks with Iran in an attempt to get Iran to a ceasefire on all fronts against Israel, but Israel is not at the table. Additionally, the Biden-Harris administration has communicated that it prefer that Israel not bomb Iran’s nuclear sites, nor bomb its oil facilities, and has offered Israel a “compensation package” if it refrains from attacking certain targets in Iran.
The promotion of a ceasefire this early into Israel’s counter-strike on Iran and its proxies, coupled with setting redlines which include an attempt to bribe Israel to temper its response, demonstrate that the Biden-Harris administration’s top priorities are to slow Israel’s efforts at significantly checking Iranian power in the region, to keep the theocratic Iranian regime in power, and to preserve Iran’s nuclear infrastructure.
Leaking plans of Israel’s ground invasion of Lebanon
An unnamed Israeli senior official stated that the Biden-Harris administration leaked Israel’s plans to wage a ground invasion of Lebanon. The senior official stated that while the US supported such an invasion, “…it is clear to us that the US is worried — and therefore they [the Biden administration] outed the operation to try to limit it.” The senior official also stated that such a leak put Israel’s soldiers at risk.
Not putting bounties on the heads of Hamas leadership
Twelve US senators have proposed that the Biden-Harris State Department put a $25 million bounty on Yahya Sinwar’s head, and this proposal has so far been left unanswered. Sinwar is the architect of Hamas’ genocidal October 7 attack on Israel. The senators have also called for bounties to be placed on the heads of: “Mohammad Al-Masri, Hamas’s top military commander; Khaled Meshaal, the terror group’s exiled leader who is living in Qatar; and Ali Baraka, who helms Hamas’s foreign affairs bureau from Lebanon.” The Biden-Harris State Department has not responded to these requests as well.
Opposing Israel’s killing of Hassan Nasrallah
When Israel killed Hezbollah chief Hassan Nasrallah in September, in a tense conversation US Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin asked Israeli Defense Minister Yoav Gallant, “Excuse me, what did you say?” Nasrallah had been terrorizing Israel since 1992, planned to conquer Israel’s north, and had orchestrated at least two wars and countless rocket attacks and skirmishes against the Jewish State. Nasrallah also called Israel “a cancer that must be eradicated.”
Opposing Israel’s killing of Fuad Shukr
When Israel killed Hezbollah’s #2 man Fuad Shukr in July, Joe Biden scolded the Israeli prime minister by saying “Bibi, what the f***?” The United States had an active $5 million bounty on his head for his role in the 1983 Hezbollah bombing of the US Army barracks which killed 241 Americans. Shukr was also the architect of the rocket attack on Majdal Shams in Israel, which killed 12 Druze children on a soccer field in July.
Opposing Israel’s Rafah invasion
President Biden asked Bibi what his plans were in Israel’s campaign in Gaza, asking him: “What is your strategy, man?” When Bibi replied, “We need to enter Rafah,” Biden gaslighted him by saying “Bibi, you’ve got no strategy.” The Biden-Harris administration initially opposed any invasion of Rafah, claiming that Israel couldn’t evacuate civilians. Then the administration pivoted, and threatened Israel with withholding arms if the scope of Israel’s invasion was not to the administration’s liking. Israel later proved that the Biden-Harris administration wrong and properly evacuated civilians. Israel’s delay in entering Rafah amounted to a “strategic mistake” as Rafah was “Hamas’ oxygen lifeline,” according to an Israeli major general (res.), and retaining Rafah allowed Hamas to resupply itself through Egypt. Had Israel entered Rafah earlier, others have speculated that Israel could have saved more hostages and potentially routed Hamas militarily.
Will Israel be able to defeat its mortal enemies, or will the Biden-Harris administration continue to stand in the way? For the sake of its survival as well as the survival of the US and the West, hopefully Israel will persevere.
