After Iran attack, will the US stand with Israel against Hezbollah? - opinion

As a consequence of October 7, Israel is a traumatized but still resilient country. Until the joint American-Israeli anti-missile response to the Iranian assault on April 14, Israel felt isolated, as its primary ally in the world appeared to be turning its back because of its actions in Gaza as it fought an existential battle against Hamas, Hezbollah, and their patron, Iran.

Will the alliance remain strong after Israel responded to the Iranian attack? President Joe Biden told Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to “take the win” and not counterattack the Islamic Republic of Iran. Or will the relationship return to the strained status before the attack, as Israel may next be forced to confront Hezbollah in Lebanon? Without American support and resupply, can Israel effectively fight Hezbollah, returning its citizens to the North and regaining deterrence against Iran’s principal proxy?

Statements from the Biden administration and its supporters before the Iranian attack have shocked Israelis as never before. Former House speaker Nancy Pelosi signed a letter written by antisemitic members of Congress calling to end the transfer of weapons to Israel. Biden called for an immediate ceasefire without an explicit linkage to the release of all the hostages, who are continually sexually abused.

Dear Israel,

You are free to do whatever you want in your region as long as not a single penny of American taxpayer money funds it

President Retard is more likely to fund terrorism than help Israel

I am all for supporting Israel by selling, not giving arms to it!

[cowboyusa]

That sounds good to me.

Israel has always bought the weapons: https://thehill.com/policy/defense/4568479-us-israel-major-new-weapons-sale/

Not under the Obama/Biden Administration. Biden is on Iran’s payroll and Obama is anti-American pro terrorist.

“Former House speaker Nancy Pelosi signed a letter written by antisemitic members of Congress calling to end the transfer of weapons to Israel.”

Is the Jerusalem Post saying it is “antisemitic” to oppose giving Israel free weapons paid for by the US taxpayer? Inquiring minds want to know!

Let’s see. Hamas is to the south and Hezbollah to the north in Lebanon.

While your fight is succeeding why stop when you’re on a roll? Take out ALL your enemies and strike while the iron’s hot. Hitler didn’t’ stop with the Jews. He took out dissidents, criminals, mental patients and gypsies. Anyone I forget?

Patton didn’t want to stop with the Nazis. He wanted Russia and MacArthur wanted China. Avoid future problems. Who’s gonna stand up for the the terrorists the UN?
