President Biden has dispatched Secretary of State Antony Blinken to the Middle East to talk to Israelis, Palestinians and regional players to bolster the ceasefire that halted fighting between the Israelis and Hamas, the White House said on Monday.

“Blinken will meet with Israeli leaders about our ironclad commitment to Israel’s security. He will continue our Administration’s efforts to rebuild ties to, and support for, the Palestinian people and leaders, after years of neglect​,” the president said in a statement issued by the White House.

Biden did not send anybody. He does not know if it is Monday or September.

Why? He has no credibility with either the Palestinians or the Israelies.

Democrats do have the talent of allowing the State Department to rise to its highest levels of idiocy and incompetency.

State Department - the Mos Eisley of D.C.

True. But when someone else negotiates a cease-fire, Biden can take credit for it. After all, his guy was there. Heck, Joe might even get a Nobel Peace Prize out of this.

An idiot representing a fake prez.

This guy was humiliated by the ChiComs, in Alaska.....and, he questioned if Hamas operated out of the media building that was leveled.

Oh, and he also believes that Climate Change is a ‘Powerful Tool’ Against ‘Systemic Racism’.

This tool is who gets sent to ‘bolster’ a ceasefire??

Which, for Democrats, usually means threatening Israel and paying Hamas.

Biden us doing everything he possibly can to protect and perpetuate the Satanic Arab Hamas PLO Abbas Hezballah Fatah Occupation of the Jewish Promised Land — and to give them even more $$$ to buy more missiles and bombs with.

From the NY Post article: “Blinken will meet with Israeli leaders about our ironclad commitment to Israel’s security.”


In talking about this commitment, Blinken can describe how hard he worked in putting in place the JCPOA, and explain how that deal was done with an eye to Israel’s (in)security. With that track record, Israel is certain to put much faith in Biden’s “ironclad commitment.”

Hey Blinken.

Are your instructions to broker a peace agreement? What’s the deal?
