Joe Biden’s Israel stunner: American Jews should let Israel protect them

"No matter how deeply involved you are in the U.S. … there’s only one guarantee ... and that's the state of Israel"

In the April issue of The Atlantic, Jeffrey Goldberg reports on a remarkable incident last fall at the residence of Vice President Joseph Biden. Speaking before guests—including leaders of Jewish organizations and Jewish officials in the Obama administration—invited to celebrate Rosh Hashanah, Biden recalled meeting Israeli Prime Minister Golda Meir when he was a young man in the Senate:

“I’ll never forget talking to her in her office with her assistant—a guy named Rabin—about the Six-Day War,” he said. “The end of the meeting, we get up and walk out, the doors are open, and … the press is taking photos … She looked straight ahead and said, ‘Senator, don’t look so sad … Don’t worry. We Jews have a secret weapon.’”

He said he asked her what that secret weapon was.

“I thought she was going to tell me something about a nuclear program,” Biden continued. “She looked straight ahead and she said, ‘We have no place else to go.’” He paused, and repeated: “‘We have no place else to go.’”

“Folks,” he continued, “there is no place else to go, and you understand that in your bones. You understand in your bones that no matter how hospitable, no matter how consequential, no matter how engaged, no matter how deeply involved you are in the United States … there’s only one guarantee. There is really only one absolute guarantee, and that’s the state of Israel.”

If you’re going to give him a “short” bus, don’t forget to include a football helmet and drool bucket with it.

Those Black buses are all incapacitated because of the bodies Obama and the Mooch have thrown under it. :0)

Our guarantee is Hashem, the Lord of Hosts. Israel has disappeared before, but His promise to protect the Jewish people has not and can not disappear.

Amen.
