"“The first time he called me ‘My rabbi’, we were at a Rosh Hashannah party. His eyes locked mine and he said ‘There’s my rabbi.’”

“It was a really nice honor. Whenever he needs something, I’m there. When his son died and there was a funeral, he wanted me to be there to represent the Jewish community, so of course I came.”

While Biden would, if elected, become the oldest president in US history at 78 on inauguration day (compared to 70 for the current record, held by Trump on his inauguration day), Rabbi Beals said the former Vice President is a “youngster” compared to Moses, adding that age was not a vulnerability but an asset.

“In the Jewish tradition, we put a connection between being old and being wise, because it comes with being wise. Moshe Rabbenu was 80 years old when he took our people out from slavery. So compared to Moshe Rabbenu, I said to Biden, ‘You’re a youngster.’”

Turning to the 2020 presidential election, Beals rejected concerns from Israel and its supporters that Biden would be less supportive than Trump.

“When Israel made its request from the US for military defenses in the time of Biden and Obama, it was too much – they didn’t make their request. And Biden convinced Obama. How can Israel not be supportive of Biden?”

“It’s very nice what Trump has done. He moved the embassy, but, thank you very much, it was King David who put the capital in Jerusalem. But it’s symbolic. Symbolism won’t put food on the table of an Israeli.”

These are the arguments he puts first. Bile rose in my gorge before I could read the rest.

At first glance, I thought the headline said “Biden’s Rabbit.” :-)

“Israel owes more to former Vice President Joe Biden than it does to President Donald Trump,”

So let’s see. Osama Obama and his sidekick Joe Birdbrain sent folks over there in interfere with their elections, sent $150 billion to Iran who has sworn to destroy Israel and has made it possible for Iran to get nukes. What is this Rabbi smoking?

Rabbi Michael Beals is simply doing electioneering for Joe Biden. Just look at Joe Biden’s record compared to Donald Trump’s full support of Israel and the number of goofball democrats who keep talking down Israel. Did Joe Biden do anything like move the embassy to Jerusalem? Does Joe Biden speak up against the idiots like Omar, Tlaib, etc. who constantly speak against Israel? I have never heard him utter a condemnation of anyone talking against Israel. Having this Rabbi speak up for Biden is just democratic campaigning, nothing else.

Israel is supposed to thank Joe Biden for the warning that they “better get used to a nuclear-armed Iran”?

Coincidentally, the Rabbi in question slipped into a Coma the third week of January 2009 and came out of his Coma exactly eight years later.

Rabbi Beals is so full of s**t that it is coming out his ears.

Biden’s Rabi is clearly a fool.

No matter what the Trump team achieves, there’s an effort to
diminish it’s importance.

This is a big deal, and is likely to lead to more agreements
in short order.

Israel has no desire to be the enemy of Arab nations in the
region, and I think the Arabs know it, and realized Israel
could be a help to them.

This Ribi just doesn’t get it.

The first Black Gomer and Biden, made no progress in eight
years. Trump made progress in less than four.

“...won’t put food on the table of an Israeli.”


Typical leftist phrase, “x won’t put food on the table of y”.

It is all right. I am sure that some putz brained Jews thought Goebbels and Himmler were good guys too.

Dollars to donuts the Rabbi is from Reformed Judaism.

They’re basically the Democratic Socialists in yarmulkes.

Notice I did not say “at prayer”.

All about outward appearances.

And here I thought Catholics had Priests. And Bishops, Cardinals and the Pope. I guess it's only devout Catholics like Joe that have Rabbis.

"Rabbi" Beals grew up in San Fransisco, went to Berkeley and American University to work at the State Department.

He became a "rabbi" by going to University of Judaism in Los Angeles (MA Hebrew Letters).

He's married to a woman, but here he is, looking really homosexual:
