If October 7 changed the way Israel sees Hamas, the Iranian attack over the weekend may have changed the way Hamas sees its leverage now. Their latest proposal for a cease-fire certainly implies it, coming just hours after the massive aerial attack. Hamas has not just rejected the US-drafted proposal for a 10:1 swap ratio […]
Remember what Robert Gates wrote in his 2014 memoir about Joe Biden’s foreign-policy acumen? “I think he has been wrong on nearly every major foreign policy and national security issue over the past four decades,” Gates concluded in Duty: Memoirs of a Secretary at War. Well, good news: Biden’s streak remains unbroken. Yesterday, the president […]
Chalk up another failure in Joe Biden’s strategic diplomacy. After ramping up pressure on Israel to give his administration more credibility in Dearborn as well as in Qatar, Biden and his team allowed the UN Security Council to pass a cease-fire demand without the condition of Hamas releasing the hostages it kidnapped. Supposedly, this momentum would […]
Oh my. Joe Biden picked this fight, and now he’s going to get it — no matter how useless this UN Security Council resolution actually is. And typically for Biden and Antony Blinken, they blundered their way into the hands of Russia and China. First, Biden and Blinken tried to pressure Israel’s unity government to […]
Good news if true, even it appears to be offered as an alternative to killing the last four Hamas brigades in Gaza. That certainly beats the ludicrous suggestion earlier this week from Joe Biden and his administration that the IDF could secure the Egypt-Gaza border to starve Hamas out of Rafah … while the US […]
Alternate headline: 19 Senate Democrats Endorse Terrorism As Legitimate Exercise of Politics. How else to describe a memo signed by almost half of the Senate Democrat caucus calling on Joe Biden to be “bold” and unilaterally declare an intent to recognize Palestine as a sovereign state as a direct result of the war Hamas started on […]
I swear, if you don’t laugh once in a while in politics, you’ll spend all day crying … or screaming. And this story will make us do all three, and not in that particular order. The Biden administration desperately needs to get Israel to slow down and let Hamas off the hook in Gaza, because […]
As Ed pointed out over the weekend, talks between Hamas and Israel seem to have reached a breaking point. Hamas is demanding more aid for northern Gaza and Israel is demanding a release of all remaining hostages. Neither side seems to believe progress is possible at this point. But as of Friday, Joe Biden was […]
Looks like Benjamin Netanyahu’s not the only one involved in negotiations over the hostages that believes Hamas is “delusional.” Yesterday, Egypt’s foreign minister blasted the terrorist group from a podium at the Munich Security Conference for its delusions in refusing to deal in good faith. Sameh Shoukry also took aim at aid efforts that got […]
Now this was a message worth sending — and not just to Hamas. In an overnight raid in Rafah, the IDF rescued two male hostages from the grips of the terrorists that kidnapped them while murdering at least 1200 others in one of the most grotesque terror attacks ever. The implications of this raid are […]
