Biden Told Netanyahu WHAT?...Meanwhile, many Americans have been stranded in the country, unable to leave, as the Biden administration has failed to organize evacuation flights, unlike other countries such as Poland and Mexico.

 

Biden Told Netanyahu WHAT?

(RightIsRight.com) – In a bizarre move considering Joe Biden’s failure to aid Americans in embattled Israel, the president has privately told Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to protect Palestinian civilians as Israel prepares to launch a ground operation to destroy the Hamas terrorist group.

Over 1,300 civilians, including upwards of 30 US citizens, were butchered in the recent Hamas terrorist attack on Southern Israel from the Gaza Strip.

Meanwhile, many Americans have been stranded in the country, unable to leave, as the Biden administration has failed to organize evacuation flights, unlike other countries such as Poland and Mexico. While Israel’s military has already killed off about 1,500 Hamas terrorists, it is preparing to storm the Gaza Strip, a tiny enclave with 2.2 million inhabitants, to wipe out the Islamist group’s entire infrastructure.

During a private discussion with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu amidst the conflict with Hamas terrorists in the Gaza Strip, President Joe Biden emphasized the importance of minimizing civilian casualties, two Biden administration sources and a former official told NBC News.Officials said Biden’s request for Netanyahu stemmed from the White House’s awareness and anticipation of potential backlash should Israel be perceived as exerting “excessive force” upon civilians – particularly women and children – not participating in the conflict.

Moreover, the Biden administration, in collaboration with other nations, is orchestrating an escape plan for citizens of Gaza who might find themselves caught in the hostilities between Hamas and Israel, the NBC sources reveal.

Reportedly, the contemplated strategy entails facilitating a safe passage for Palestinian civilians and Americans in Gaza through a southern corridor leading toward Egypt.

A White House release revealed on Tuesday that a conversation between Biden and Netanyahu revolved around assurances from the US President regarding continued support for Israel.

The same day, President Biden addressed the conflict during his first public appearance since Saturday’s attack, affirming that Israel possesses the “right to respond” to “vicious attacks.”

In a 10-minute address, he announced the US had sent the USS Gerald R. Ford Carrier Strike Group to Israel’s shores.

“And we stand ready to move in additional assets as needed. Let me say again — to any country, any organization, anyone thinking of taking advantage of this situation, I have one word: Don’t. Don’t. Our hearts may be broken, but our resolve is clear,” Biden said.

All hell is breaking loose after a former CIA and NSA Director called for the death of this one Republican Senator

Democrats routinely accuse Republicans of being domestic extremists who support violence.

But Republicans are the ones on the receiving end of political violence.And now all hell is breaking loose after a former CIA and NSA Director called for the death of this one Republican Senator. Abortion is the Democrat Party’s sacred cow. Democrats support taxpayer-funded abortion-on-demand up until birth with zero exemptions, and refuse to budge from this radical position that the overwhelming majority of Americans find inhumane.

That’s why Democrats are furious with Alabama Republican Senator Tommy Tuberville over his principled commitment to continue blocking promotions at the Pentagon until the Department of Defense ends its new policy of paying for female service members to travel out of state so they can have an abortion.

“The Biden administration, Democrats and the national security establishment are upset by Tuberville blocking the Senate from confirming on a blanket basis the Biden administration’s promotions of about 300 senior military officers, which the senator is doing so over the Biden Pentagon’s policy that pays for service members to travel to get abortions,” Breitbart reported. But it’s not just Democrats in Congress who are furious with Tuberville.

A former CIA and NSA Director and retired Air Force General just essentially called for Tuberville’s assassination in a post on X.

“Should Tommy Tuberville be removed from his committee? Yes or NO?” one social media user asked. “How about the human race,” Hayden replied.

Assassinating Tuberville is the only way to remove him from the human race as Hayden suggested. Of course, Hayden quickly drew fire for his sick comments.

Donald Trump Jr. ripped Hayden in a post on X. “The former Director of CIA, who lied to the world about Hunter’s laptop being Russian disinformation and disgraced himself even before that when, as head of NSA, he pioneered warrantless surveillance in the US — now wants to assassinate a US Senator,” Trump Jr. wrote.


Trump Jr. was referring to the letter signed by dozens of U.S. intelligence operatives falsely claiming the Hunter Biden laptop story was Russian disinformation before the election in 2020.

John Durham’s report proved these intelligence operatives knew they were lying when they signed the letter but did so in an effort to hurt Trump.

But when it comes to their sacred cow, Democrats are willing to publicly call for Senators to be “removed from the human race.”

Black Lives Matter Chapters Express Support For Terrorism;In a social media post on Monday evening, chapters of Black Lives Matter (BLM) expressed support for the murder of more than 1,000 Israelis by Palestinian terrorist group Hamas — arguing that the mass slaughter of civilians, women, and children was an “act of self-defense.”

 

Black Lives Matter Chapters Express Support For Terrorism

In a social media post on Monday evening, chapters of Black Lives Matter (BLM) expressed support for the murder of more than 1,000 Israelis by Palestinian terrorist group Hamas — arguing that the mass slaughter of civilians, women, and children was an “act of self-defense.”

The statement issued by BLM came after Hamas committed a surprise terror attack in Israel — supported by Iran — that left over 1,000 people dead, thousands injured and at least 100 people taken hostage. There were reportedly at least 14 Americans killed in the attack, and several more taken hostage.

In the post on X, formerly known as Twitter, the official account for Black Lives Matter Grassroots declared support for the mass murder and defended the terrorists.

“When a people have been subject to decades of apartheid and unimaginable violence, their resistance must not be condemned, but understood as a desperate act of self-defense,” the post read, adding that BLM stood “in solidarity with our Palestinian family who are currently resisting 57 years of settler colonialism and apartheid.”

The far-left group also repeated false claims that Gaza is “the world’s largest open-air prison” — while comparing their own supposed struggles to the alleged struggles of Palestinians.

“We, too, understand what it means to be surveilled, dehumanized, property seized, families separated, our people criminalized and slaughtered with impunity, locked up in droves, and when we resist they call us terrorists,” the group claimed. “We, too, dream of a world where our people may live freely on decolonized land. May the borders, checkpoints, prisons, police, and watchlists that terrorize our communities crumble and may the world we build from their ashes honor those who have fallen in struggle.”

“For lasting peace to come, the entire apartheid system must be dismantled. The war on the Palestinian people must cease,” the statement concluded. “We call on the United States government to immediately stop funding war and redirect the $4 billion in annual spending from the Israeli military to repair the damage caused by U.S.-backed wars, military air strikes, coups, and destabilizing interventions against oppressed people around the world.”

One particular chapter of BLM went even further than this — sharing a meme of a paratrooper with a Palestinian flag reading: “I stand with Palestine.” This is especially heinous because many of the terrorists who attacked Israel entered the country using parachutes.

Biden Admits to Hamas-Caused American Casualties, Touts Safety as Priority! by Staff Reports

 

Biden Admits to Hamas-Caused American Casualties, Touts Safety as Priority!

In an unexpected development, the White House opted to take a break during a critical moment. While American citizens faced danger during the Hamas attack on Israel, the White House declared a "lid" for the day before noon. It gave the impression that they were not inclined to engage in actual work. Finally, several hours later, President Joe Biden delivered a statement on "American Citizens Impacted in Israel."

Ezoic

One might assume that the president would address the primary cause of these deadly attacks, namely Hamas. However, Biden conveniently omitted that aspect. Instead, he confirmed the loss of 11 American citizens but refrained from attributing responsibility for their deaths. It raised questions about whether these events were accidental or deliberate.

The situation with the stranded Americans in Afghanistan cannot be overlooked. Despite Biden's claims that the safety of American citizens is his foremost concern, he was unable to ensure their safe return. It appears to be a case of unfulfilled promises.

Nevertheless, it is worth noting that Biden did acknowledge that American citizens may be among those held by Hamas, albeit belatedly. It is a positive sign that he is beginning to pay attention, even though the timing is less than ideal.

In his customary style, President Biden also emphasized the importance of the United States' relationship with Israel. However, actions speak louder than words. Mere promises and photo opportunities are insufficient.

n summary, it is evident that the White House appeared more interested in taking a break than addressing a crisis. Nonetheless, law enforcement agencies have increased security around Jewish centers, and the FBI is monitoring domestic threats—steps that are, at the very least, necessary.

We can only hope that President Biden awakens from his break soon and takes decisive actions to safeguard American citizens. Empty promises and missed opportunities are something we cannot afford any longer.
