Mike Pompeo: Biden's Stance On Israel And Iran 'Emboldens Terrorists'
Fox News ^ | 05.12.2021 | Houston Keene

Former Secretary of State Mike Pompeo tore into President Biden's foreign policy regarding Israel and Iran, saying its stance on the long-standing disputes in the region "emboldens terrorists."

Pompeo's criticism comes after Hamas followers launched rockets into Jerusalem on Monday night, following clashes between Israeli forces and Palestinian protesters.

Pompeo said the Biden administration has "clearly signaled less support" for Israelis' right to self-defense than the Trump administration, and that doing so "invites precisely the kinds of violence we are seeing in the region today."

"Simple things like President Biden delaying his call with Israeli leadership and restarting funding to the [Palestinian Authority] through the [United Nations], all tell Hamas and terrorists in the West Bank that America places less value on the relationship between Israel and the United States," the former secretary of state said.

The Biden regime makes Obama look like Theodore Herzl. The USA has never before had a Presidency that seethes with so much hostility towards Israel.

Just heard from Jerusalem friends that many tanks and armoured personnel carriers are heading south. Might be a major Israeli action underway..

In his first 100 days, mr Biden gave American taxpayer money to the Hamas terrorist murder gang. He “recognized” again the plo-Abbas- fatah terrorist murder gangsters, too. He is actively trying to restore Obama’s support ($, military protection) for the Iranian terrorist murder gang controlling that great country. He’s appointed a number of anti-Semitic people ( where do they dredge rhis garbage up from??) into “our” federal government. And his administration actually tried to imply blame against the Jews for the Muslim Arab riots, murders, and bombings against the Jews and Christians there. We could go on about Biden’s promoting muslim terrorists and the outbreak of active warfare — a startk reversal and abandonment of Trump’s peace initiatives—but the issue is how much further damage Biden can do in the next 3.7 years. And just what we can do to stop this destruction of the promise we had just a few months ago for further genuine improvement in the world ( and at home, too!). Mr Biden’s regime is destroying it all, and fast too. Including American jobs, businesses, energy independence, and our defenses. This must be stopped

If the American voting public allows this — whether it’s voting in a totally incompetent leader or countenancing a stolen election — I suppose we deserve the consequences. Which I believe we are beginning to find out will be severe.

Wow. I wouldn’t be surprised...I think all of this is because the “Palestinians” have been emboldened by Biden (and they also had their shipments of US $ restored by him) and also because he has emboldened and rewarded the Iranians for their provocative behavior.
