Republicans in the House and Senate are tearing into the Biden administration for unfreezing $6 billion in Iranian assets months before Hamas terrorists launched a deadly and massive attack on Israel early Saturday.

"Just weeks ago, the Biden administration handed over $6 billion to Iran, and today, innocent Israelis were murdered by Iran-backed terrorists," Sen. Marsha Blackburn, R-Tenn., said in a statement. "We must continue to support our strongest ally in the Middle East and their right to defend themselves against these unprovoked, horrific attacks."

Why on earth did the do it? Plus 360 million to Hamas?

If you don’t think there are massive kickbacks going on, you are naive.

Biden has made the US a huge financial backer of the sex trade, drug trafficking and terrorism.

With Biden giving Billions of $ to Iran and our 51 leaders of the CIA falsely stating the Russian hoax was true, leads me to the following question.

DID THE CIA AND OTHER INTELLIGENCE WITHHOLD VITAL INFORMATION FROM ISRAEL ABOUT THIS CURRENT ATTACK?

It has me wondering if the USSR/CCP were funding the Vietnam war protesters too.

I would say yes to both of the above two funding the anti war protestors!

Well I have to give Trump credit. He said this was coming when Der Biden gave the $6 billion to Iran

Trump was 100% correct.

Didn’t Israel attack Syria a while back? Is this the “Pearl Harbor Moment” to pull the USA into the war with the New Axis? A way to get Americans to support WW III? Possible.
If Israel nukes Iran (they are not that dumb) Will Russia counter-strike? Russia doesn’t need Iranian drones (They build knock-offs of them in a Russian factory that Iran helped them build—a factory that operated on 4 shifts seven days a week)—Would a strike on Iran close the straights and make Oil Prices expand? This isn’t good folks. Looking more and more like 1941. Pray for Peace but its slipping away.

There’s an underlying theme in this administration: “If it’s bad for America, you can be sure Bribium is for it.”

Pretty much everything this administration does is injurious to our country in one way or another.

So, it’s natural to wonder why that is:

No what is happening is the same thing that has happened every time peace talks advance.

Saudi Arabia and Israel have been in negotiations. It looks like another Palestinian ally was turning its back on them. So the terrorist’s groups attack, provoke a justified Israelis self defense response. The Arabs start crying to the lying Fake News stodges about “disproportionate responses”. This generates an outcry in Arab circles against Israel and ends any progress.

What we need is a President who forceable goes on the attack. Makes it clear that the Palestinians bear full responsibility for their unprovoked aggression. That the USA will fully support Israel in their legitimate actions in self defense.

We could do that with a Present who established US Energy Independence but since the Biden regime deliberately wrecked that sector of our economy we will get more equivocation and posturing to avoid pissing off the Arab oil machine.

The globalists warmongers paid billions, all from USA efforts, to Israel’s enemies in effort to escalate wars. The USA has emboldened Israel’s enemies with our direct financial support also. And that’s outside of the billions we released to them and the billions we increased their fossil fuel exports. Not to mention the anti-American political policies we’ve supported on their behalf against our own ally. Yet, some unthinking individuals and DoD propagandists think they can convince the people that because Russia is allied with some of our enemies, that it was Russia who accelerated this conflict. Too bad for you, it’s a lie and so are you knowingly pushing a dubious narrative.

It's a continuation of deep state's orchestrated Russia, Russia, Russia narrative.

“The Democrats and the Neocon Republicans want a world war and they want it now.”

>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

No Americans want war, Ukrainians don’t want war, Europe doesn’t want war the Russian people (canon fodder) doesn’t want war.

Only the Kremlin is pushing all the buttons for war.
Russia keeps invading and annexing nations we consider as our allies.
They are tightly collaborating with Iran, fomenting anti US, anti-Israel, anti-West deeds.

“No Americans want war”

Listen to most of the Senators and Congress-critters.

They want a war on five different fronts.

Russia is bad.
China is bad.
Iran is bad.
Hamas is bad.
North Korea is bad.

etc etc etc

They need to look in the mirror.

Book: Russia and the West under Lenin and Stalin

Publishers: [At] Boston: Little, Brown, 1961. 411 p.

Author: George F. Kennan

Naval War College Review:

Russia and the West under Lenin and Stalin, is based on a series of lectures given by the author at Oxford and Harvard Universities. It examines some of the major episodes and turning points in the history of relations between the Soviet Union and the West, from the Revolution of 1917 until the end of World War II. The myths about the Soviet-West relationship which have been fostered by Soviet historians [and Russian apologists] are very effectively refuted, while still not concealing the shortcomings of the West in this relationship. This work is highly recommended for those who desire background before proceeding to deal with any specific subject area concerning Soviet [and Russian] foreign policy.

[Square brackets: comments, mine.]

During World War II, a U.S. Naval attache, Commander Kemp Tolley, left Russia after a lengthy tour of duty and stopped for a while, in Iran - where George F. Kennan was stationed.

Mr. Kennan explained to Kemp Tolley, that Stalin would foment unrest in the Middle East, in order to frustrate the supply of oil to the West. IIRC, Stalin began to meddle around, before World War II. Kemp Tolley wrote about his visiting George Kennan, in a book: Caviar and Commissars: The Experiences of a U.S. Naval Officer in Stalin’s Russia.
