Which is more impeachable: actively siding with terrorists and using U.S. taxes and diplomacy to support them against Israel, or denying Israeli weapons?
Republicans had no problem funding Joe Biden’s jihad against Israel, both in the form of aid to Gaza and unfreezing Iranian assets. But Biden’s decision to withhold foreign aid to Israel was a last resort, with Rep. Cory Mills (R-Fla.) filing articles of impeachment alleging “abuse of power” and illegal “quid pro quo.” Encouraged submission.
Anger is justified, but misdirected.How? Tax withholding Foreign aid brings out more Republican agenda Activefunding and To enable Hamas and Iran?
No country, even allies, is eligible for U.S. aid. The president has the power to at least temporarily defer spending approved by Congress. That is not grounds for impeachment.
But the act, which should be an impeachable crime, is an active move on the side of terrorists who are holding Americans hostage as a means of forcing Israel to stop the war and release thousands of Hamas murderers. It is complicit.
Sadly, many of the same Republicans who are outraged by Biden’s “pause” on the delivery of precision weapons to Israel are the same ones who are outraged by Biden’s “pause” on deliveries of precision weapons to Israel, along with funds to build a port on the Gaza coast. The aid has just been approved.
Perhaps one day we will understand why the Republican Party is so obsessed with foreign aid that it funds both sides of the same war.
Why have Republicans stood by since October 7 as Biden undermined Israel’s war effort and sided with terrorists? They had political influence in must-pass spending bills, such as the National Defense Authorization Act and the recent foreign aid bill, but they refused to exercise that power.
Following Iran’s unprecedented ballistic missile attack on Israel in April, Reuters reported that the administration had advance knowledge of the Iranian attack and had even negotiated its scope and scale with the terrorist state. “Iran informed Turkey in advance of plans for operations against Israel… [and] “The US government told Tehran through Ankara that any action must be ‘within certain limits,'” the news agency said. report The day after Iran launched approximately 170 drones, more than 30 cruise missiles, and more than 120 ballistic missiles toward Israel.
“Iran had informed us in advance what would happen. Possible developments were also discussed during the meeting. [Antony] with blinken [the U.S.] “We told Iran through us that this response must be within certain limits,” the Turkish official said of direct talks with the US secretary of state.
This explosive statement troubled Republican senators who are supposed to be hawkish. This is a clear example of the Biden administration actively collaborating with Israel’s enemies.It was public information in front Voting on foreign aid bill. Where were the cries to reject Biden’s request for billions of dollars in aid to Hamas and another $60 billion in aid to Ukraine? Where were the demands to weaken Israel and stop building piers for Hamas?
Instead, they relentlessly gave Biden everything he wanted, thinking that since they funded Hamas but also funded Israel (both sides of the same war!) everything would be fine. was.
Well, you can’t blame Biden for taking Republican concessions, sitting on Israeli aid, and spending the rest on Israel’s enemies. You can’t blame Biden for not taking the Republican Party seriously when he was rewarded for helping coordinate Iran’s attack on Israel.
Again, which is worse: funding terrorists and providing them with diplomatic, logistical, and moral support, or not funding Israel and providing subsidies to its enemies?
This absurdity was on full display when issued a waiver Authorizes arms sales to Hamas allies in Lebanon, Qatar, and Iraq.
To make matters worse, our military is nearing completion of a floating pier that will serve as Gaza’s port. Not only would it be wrong to supply Gaza with anything other than a scarlet letter, the port would create yet another permanent security obligation for the United States in the region.pier has already been criticizedPerhaps from the very beast of Hamas that we feed with our biting hands. If we do not put an end to this escapism, it could easily turn into another Beirut barracks tragedy. We reap what we sow.
We need to move away from our misguided obsession with foreign aid. For Democrats, it would be unreasonable to impeach Donald Trump for withholding foreign aid from Ukraine, just as it would be unreasonable to impeach Biden for withholding aid to Israel. But what makes him impeachable is Biden’s active support of Israel’s enemies, who are also our enemies.
For example, the United States reportedly: Withhold information from Israel About the whereabouts of the mastermind of the October 7th attack. This is far more egregious than withholding taxpayer-funded aid, and certainly far more impeachable.
All things being equal, I prefer Republicans to pass legislation that eliminates arms against Israel’s enemies. invoice They are expected to pass a bill on Wednesday that would prohibit the Pentagon from delaying arms transfers to Israel.
But again, if Republicans cannot care about our border security, then Republicans will protect Israel’s security from Biden’s pro-Hamas policies as long as Israel gets its share of the foreign aid pie. No wonder it has no effect. Perhaps one day we will understand why the Republican Party is so obsessed with foreign aid that it funds both sides of the same war.
