While Iran launched an attack on Israel using drones and ballistic missiles this past week, the seeds of this act of war were firmly planted by President Biden in August of 2023.
That is when this weak and incompetent excuse of a Commander in Chief cut a deal with Iran to free five American detainees in exchange for Tehran gaining access to $6 billion in oil revenue that was only supposed to be used for “humanitarian purposes.”
Iran accused the detained Americans of “spying” and demanded access to billions of dollars in order for their return to American soil.
In Iran the direct translation for “humanitarian purposes” is to take money that came from America to bomb Israel.
Let that sink in: President Biden’s $6 billion in blood money was used for this attack on America’s biggest ally: Israel.
The radical left and Hamas apologists will scream bloody murder that President Biden’s Iranian transaction was one where the money could not be used for military purposes. The deal was, Iran could only spend the $6 billion for humanitarian purposes only.
If you believe that, you also believe President Biden is dealing with a full deck, is competent, and has his mental faculties.
For argument’s sake, let’s make the case that hell froze over and Iran actually kept its word to use the $6 billion Biden money for good, to help their own people.
All that means is that Iran then didn’t have to spend $6 billion of its own money for those purposes, and could use those resources on strengthening its military to buy, I don’t know…..100 drones and ballistic missiles to attack Israel.
Either way, the fact remains that President Biden is a weak fool that has made America and the world less safe. He is also directly responsible for emboldening our enemies and giving them the resources to launch a surprise attack on Israel.
American and Israeli defense forces were able to shoot down some of the Iranian drones before they could kill innocent civilians.
Throughout the course of history, appeasement has never, ever served as a successful means of stopping aggressive tyrants and dictators from attacking our friends and allies.
Gullible British Prime Minister Nevelle Chamberlain naively declared “peace for our time” following the Munich Agreement of September of 1938. Hitler promised to not attempt to take over more land in Europe in exchange for Germany receiving land in Czechoslovakia.
How’d appeasement work out for the world back then?
Vladimir Putin did not dare invade Ukraine while President Donald J. Trump was in office. North Korea stood down. The world was a much safer place when our enemies knew there would be hell to pay if they stepped out of line.
Terrorist and war criminal Putin invaded Ukraine while Barack Obama and Joe Biden were in the Oval Office. Hamas and Iran attacked Israel while a weak, bumbling and mumbling President Biden can barely spit out a sentence that people can understand, let alone respond to those attacks with aggression and strength.
We are inching closer and closer to World War III. America and Israel’s enemies will attack with reckless abandon knowing there will be zero repercussions from the Biden administration. Hell, they’re providing the money to pay for their attacks.
Our only hope is that there will be a new Sheriff in town come January 20th, 2025. There will be hell to pay if America’s enemies get out of line once President Trump becomes Commander in Chief once again. Until then, the Biden administration will continue paying, literally, for terrorist states to attack our allies like Israel.
We can only hope the damage will be minimal in the last months of this long, national nightmare known as the Joe Biden presidency.
