- Sadly, the Biden administration has yet to come out and publicly acknowledge Iran’s role in Hamas’s October 7 invasion of Israel, in which the terrorist group murdered over 1,400 Israelis and at least 31 Americans, and wounded over 4,500 Israelis. Hamas also abducted more than 240 people and took them back to Gaza, where they are being held as hostages.
- Iran provides roughly $100 million a year to Palestinian terrorist organizations such as Hamas and Palestinian Islamic Jihad, and $700 million a year to Hezbollah.
- Iran and its proxies have clearly been waging a war against Israel, Jews and the United States. It is incumbent upon the Biden administration at least to publicly acknowledge this fact. Or is the US still hoping for some disastrous “nuclear deal” in which the Iranian regime would promise not to use its imminent nuclear weapons — “on my watch” — during just the Democrats’ time in office?
The Biden administration continues to turn a blind eye to Iran’s involvement in the war against Israel, the Jews and in fact all “infidels” — not least of which is “the Great Satan,” the United States.
In recent weeks, Iranian proxies have attacked not only Israel and the Jews, but also at least 41 strikes against US forces in Syria and Iraq, during which 46 US servicemen were wounded and one was killed by a drone; and with more than 83 attacks on US troops since Biden became president.
These assaults came in addition to an attempted assassination on US soil by the Iranian regime of a foreign diplomat in 2012, and threats to assassinate former US officials, complete with a $1 million bounty, in 2022.
The US responded to these attacks by cancelling sanctions on Iran, thereby enabling it to reap close to $60 billion by exporting its oil and gas – and comfortably to finance its terrorist proxy war on Israel and attacks on US forces in the Middle East.
The worrying part is the “not on my watch” issue. This sounds very much like a cuckoo’s egg being left for Trump to deal with. I have no doubt that Trump would solve the problem, but will that happen in time to avoid serious nuclear damage?

Biden Administration does not want to admit the truth that Iran is the source of the war, because the Biden Administration did everything they could to empower Iran to fight such a war against Israel and the US.
To admit Iran’s role as the kingpin would highlight and underline the purposeful objective of the Obama/Biden policy of making Iran the regional hegemon.
Obama and Biden want to do these things sneakily, and keep Americans in the dark about it, because they know if they come out openly and say, “We want Iran to defeat Israel and the US,” that would end their hegemony over the democrat party, and it probably would be the end of the democrat party itself in the US, just as Meretz and the peace lobby in Israel dismantled their own political power by standing up for the rights of the Palestinian terrorists over the rights of Israelis.
So the Biden administration thinks we are all stupid, and as long as they proclaim that they have no information supporting Iran’s role, that no one will see them for the treasonous snakes they are.
