Hamas’ gruesome terrorist attack against Israel has left the entire world in shock, primarily at the barbarity of Hamas’ actions but also at the monumental intelligence failure on the part of Israel’s vaunted security establishment. The tragic attack has also encouraged some healthy critical reflection on the Biden regime’s Middle East policy. In a colossal blunder worthy of the legendarily inaccurate financial commentator Jim Cramer, Biden’s national security advisor Jake Sullivan just this month bragged that “the Middle East is quieter now than it has been in two decades.”
Of course, no one can be expected to predict the future, but this unfortunate remark strikes us as particularly flat-footed. Possibly more disturbing than the Biden team’s flat-footedness on the emerging conflict is the distinct possibility that a Hamas sympathizer enjoys a senior role within Biden’s national security apparatus.
The individual in question is Maher Bitar, who currently serves as the Senior Director for Intelligence Programs on Joe Biden’s National Security Council.
Biden’s choice of Bitar for a senior intelligence role within the NSC is largely forgotten, though it generated considerable controversy in the immediate aftermath of Bitar’s appointment in 2021. Numerous reports emerged of Bitar’s history of activism on behalf of Palestine that extended into support for the BDS movement as well as organizations that have been accused of being friendly to terror groups like Hamas.
The Washington Free Beacon reported that Bitar was not only a member but also an executive director of the controversial “Students for Justice in Palestine” (SJP) group. SJP is known for its radical anti-Israel perspective.
SJP students at Vassar College, for instance, drew controversy for selling t-shirts depicting Leila Khaled, a convicted terrorist and airplane hijacker, in order to raise money for the “Palestinian resistance.” The SJP has of course responded to the recent Hamas terror attack on Israel by organizing a “Day of Resistance” in support of Hamas’ “historic win” against Israel, according to a recent report by the Daily Mail.
It is rather remarkable that a senior intelligence official in Biden’s national security council would have held a senior position in such an organization. Here is Bitar sporting a black and white “keffiyeh,” a symbol of Palestinian nationalism to express resistance, solidarity, and revolution. Bitar is standing in front of a sign that reads, “Divest from Israel Apartheid.”
This would help explain why our 'intelligence' people are more concerned with targeting white middle class middle aged traditional Americans... rather than our real enemies.
During FDR, there were spies and infiltrators everywhere inside the Whitehouse, Congress and the FBI.
Oppenheimer’s mistress Jean Tatlock was a Communist spy and was recruiting women to be mistresses for the scientists on the Manhattan Project.
Spies in the State Dept tried to get the USA to send Uranium to Russia under Lend-Lease and it was only vetoed when Los Alamos found out about it.
McCarthy was right on target and yet was destroyed for trying to point it out.
Sure does remind you of what we are seeing today.
This is a symptom of intersectionality and diversity. The entire Biden Administration and the Democrat Party is full of fellow travelers that work to destroy America. They have full representation of every flavor of reprobate. It is almost too easy to attack and abuse a different one each day. Hey Ronna, do you hear that, you lard ass RINO piece of chit?
Anybody else wonder why less than a week before the terrorist attack / invasion Joe Biden reversed his border wall policy and expedited the return to building the wall?
This G’D Joe Biden nightmare has got to come to an end.
“This G’D Joe Biden nightmare has got to come to an end”
To be replaced by a Gruesome Newsome nightmare?
Biden is not pro America
Biden is for himself only
He cares nothing for others
He never was a patriot
He auctioned his position for $$$$, worldwide
He is not capable
He was.. Is.. Always.. For sale.
He is an embarrassment and a lousy rep.

Adam Schiff’s top legal adviser is joining President Joe Biden’s National Security Council as its senior director for intelligence, a key role that serves as the day-to-day connective tissue between the intelligence community and the White House.
Maher Bitar, who has served as the general counsel for House Intelligence Committee Democrats since 2017 and played a key role during the first impeachment of former President Donald Trump, is set to begin in the new job in the coming days, said two people familiar with the move. His official title will be senior director for intelligence programs.
The entire Xiden regime consists of nothing but communists, nazis, criminals and various other extreme far left freaks.
Pray tell who really outed him?
“The individual in question is Maher Bitar, who currently serves as the Senior Director for Intelligence Programs on Joe Biden’s National Security Council.”
bttt
It’s hard to believe Biden’s done this much damage to the country and his four years aren’t even up yet.
Obama and these Marxists are just getting started.
Biden gazes his navel and doesn't run a G'D thing.
I had feelings about that as well but the horse is out of the barn. In my 14 years on Texas border we nabbed hundreds if not thousands in our sector with ME origins.
They would visit Mexico and other southern countries for 6 months or so training in new cultures. Then would head north and blend in with other Latinos.
Head on a swivel.
