The Deterioration of Democratic Support for Israel

In 1981 Israel’s Prime Minister Menachem Begin was asked by a group of Americans what he thought were the lessons of the Holocaust. He answered, “if an enemy of our people seeks to destroy us, believe him. Don’t doubt him for a moment, don’t make light of it. Do all in your power to deny him the means of carrying out his satanic intent.” This past April in Vienna, on the eve of Holocaust Remembrance Day, the Biden Administration joined talks to renegotiate the terms of a return to the 2015 Iran Nuclear Deal (The Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action or JCPOA). If revived, the Iran Nuclear deal would restore billions of dollars in economic sanctions to Iran, the chief financial backer of Hamas and Palestinian Islamic Jihad.

As Michael Doran, a senior fellow at the Hudson Institute, explains, “the appeasement on the nuclear question leads to appeasement across the region.” On Monday, senior Hamas official Mahmoud Al-Zahar asserted that "Israel has no right to exist.” On a visit to Iran last week Hamas leader Ismail Haniyeh publicly thanked Iran for providing Hamas with money, weapons, and technical support during recent clashes between the terrorist organization and Israel. The fragile truce that remains in effect between Hamas and Israel follows eleven days of Israel enduring the worst violence it has witnessed in years, with Iranian proxies in Gaza launching over 4,000 rockets towards Israeli cities and terrorizing its citizens.

The conflict also revealed the fraying support among Democrats in Congress, a growing number of who struck a tone of moral relativism and concentrated their efforts on criticizing Israel’s defensive actions rather than Hamas’ terrorist aggressions.

Since the D party was taken over by soroznazi and his islamonazi and Commie crowd, they’ve been importing and inculcating as many disruptive or seditious or violent “supporters” as they can. All with a common element- must be as strongly anti- American and anti- Christian as possible. And of course the objective is to win and impose the Fourth Reich or Communist International on America. Stealing elections right out in the open works too, with their mass media puppet supporters’ propaganda support. So, it appears they’re winning and winning big.

Perhaps they’ll wind up fighting amongst themselves later, as hitler and Stalin did ? Or perhaps not? An interesting question

Islam is higher up on the social justice latter than any other group except Communists. Any group below that is excluded. Thus why leftists have to hate Israel even though Israel is much more progressive than Palestine.

Democrats and socialists have always hated Jews. Especially the latter.
