Former U.N. ambassador John Bolton criticized President Biden’s approach to Israel’s reaction to Iran, alleging that the administration exerted “enormous pressure” on Israel’s response to Iran’s recent attack.
“I think what Israel did, as far as it went, was fine,” Bolton said Friday on the “Cats & Cosby” radio show, hosted by John Catsimatidis and Rita Cosby. “I think they were under enormous pressure, I mean, enormous pressure, from the Biden administration not to do more. I can appreciate that; it’s a difficult position to be in.”
Prime Minister Bibi Netanyahu had emphasized Israel’s commitment to self-defense, stating, “[t]he state of Israel will take all necessary measures to protect itself,” during a Cabinet meeting.
“But even within the war Cabinet in Israel, people believe that opposition leader Benny Gantz wanted to go further,” he continued. “And I think they should have. I think Iran was very, very lucky here.”
“The goal was to restore deterrence and discourage any further Iranian attack on the Israeli homeland,” Richard Haass, the president emeritus of the Council on Foreign Relations, wrote. But the Israeli action was also calibrated to make it easy for Iran not to respond. Israel’s government is not trumpeting what took place.”

“Biden claims he’s a friend of Israel but it just isn’t so.
Let’s walk down memory lane with the most hostile,
anti-Israel administration in American history.
It was Obama-Biden that rewarded the Palestinian Authority (PA)
with taxpayer dollars despite it handing out millions of dollars
to PA terrorists for killing Americans and Israelis.
It was Obama-Biden that pressured Israel to withdraw
to indefensible borders, release Palestinian terrorists from jail,
divide Israel’s capital Jerusalem, refrain from building homes,
and more. Deafening silence from Obama-Biden regarding
the PA’s murderous track record and its
refusal to recognize Israel as the one Jewish state.”

It was Obama-Biden that refused to oppose the
anti-Semitic Boycott, Divestment and Sanction (BDS) movement,
whose goal BDS co-founder admitted is to eliminate
“any Zionist state like the one we speak about [in present-day Israel].”
Even WaPo’s Jennifer Rubin (not exactly a friend of Republicans)
succinctly titled her piece, “Obama Winks at BDS”.

to President Obama about Jonathan Pollard:
“Over my dead body are we going to let him out before his time.
If it were up to me, he would stay in jail for life.”

Joe Biden NEVER expressed regret for United Nations
Resolution 2334, which states that ALL [100%] of Israel
is stolen land, including Jerusalem and THE KOTEL.

Caroline Glick said:
“…there was massive evidence five years ago
that Iran’s actions and intentions in relation
to its illicit nuclear program were aggressive.
Israel shared that evidence with the Obama administration,
and Barack Obama and his advisors didn’t care.
They drove forward and demonized Israeli leaders
and their American supporters as warmongers.
The same people who dismissed Israel’s evidence
then are now leading Biden’s national security team.”

Last week [USA President] Biden held a Passover seder
at the White House which erased the Jews and G*D
from the story of their deliverance from Egypt.
The White House invited the progressive, anti-Israel
“rabbi” Sharon Brous to officiate at the event,
which rewrote and de-Judaized every aspect
of the Jewish festival of Jewish freedom.

The Houthis lived up to their “Death to America” slogan
by repeatedly launching cruise missiles at the USS Mason
which had been protecting shipping in the area.
And they lived up to the second half of their slogan by
ethnically cleansing the remaining local Jewish population,
locking them up, and confiscating their homes and land.
Local reports stated that the Houthis were
“cutting off water & electricity to Jewish homes
and preventing Jews from purchasing food.”
“No Jew would be allowed to stay here,”
one of the Jewish refugees said.
The Iran-backed Islamic terrorists fight using 18,000 child soldiers.
The soldiers, many abducted, some as young as 10,
are taught to hate America and to kill enemies of Iran.
None of this stopped Biden’s State Department
from taking the Houthis off the terror list.
