Late last week, Joe Biden made the unprecedented move of declaring a “national emergency” so he could sanction four Israeli men for their angry actions in the Gaza strip. The Republican Jewish Coalition (RJC) released a statement calling Biden’s actions “cold, calculated politics.”
“Joe Biden and his team are watching his poll numbers crater. Today he traveled to the key battleground state of Michigan, home of the largest Arab-American population in the United States, desperate for some sort of political ‘win’ with his fervently anti-Israel base in the Democratic Party,” according to the RJC statement. “It’s a disgrace.”
The four men Biden sanctioned have already been investigated and prosecuted by Israeli authorities. But once again, Joe Biden has chosen to act as if he is the ruler of Israel as well as America.
“Joe Biden has needlessly damaged the US-Israel alliance yet again,” the RJC said. “Congress and the American people must make it clear that the Biden administration is dangerously off course regarding Israel.”
Meanwhile, top Hamas officials once again refused to reach a ceasefire agreement, saying “there is no way” they will accept such a deal.
Hamas continues to hold more than 100 Israelis and Americans hostage in the dungeon-like tunnels beneath Gaza. Video footage from major international news services as well as releases by the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) have revealed these tunnels and Hamas weapons depots are located beneath Gaza hospitals and elementary schools.
Videos from the day of the attack and testimony from released hostages document Hamas’ gang rape, torture, and privation horrors ... but Joe Biden wants to sanction four Israeli men frustrated over Hamas’ atrocities!
