Peloni: The intent of US aid in the current context is to manipulate Israel into maintaining the defense of its borders as missiles rain down on them rather than eliminating the threat which exists on the other side of those borders. Israel must continue to ignore this imposed limitation on their sovereignty and defend itself with offensive means as it has been doing over the past year. Of course, this war could be resolved in a much shorter time frame and with far fewer casualties on all sides if the US acted as Israel’s ally rather than that of Iran’s, but for this we will have to await the return of good governance in the US with a favorable outcome in the US next month.

The latest military aid deal from the Biden-Harris Administration to Israel.
Fine statements were made by the UN Administration over the recently announced $5.2B military aid package to Israel.
Although announced as an increase to the previous $3.3B package, this new package is strongly restricted to defensive items such as missile defense, not affirmative weaponry.
The current US Administration does not approve of Israel winning wars waged against the Jewish State, so the budget covers items such as the Iron Dome, David Sling, and other advanced laser systems to resist incoming threats.
Taking the wool from people’s eyes, this package does nothing in providing Israel go after the enemy, his personnel, facilities, headquarters, weapon and launcher storage facilities to prevent attacks against Israel before they happen.
The Biden-Harris Administration have proved themselves incapable of allowing Israel to defang the enemy at source, always referring instead to “ceasefires” that never solve the core problem of a determined enemy.
Efforts aimed to maintain Israel’s qualitative edge in the region must always include an overwhelming fire power to destroy a determined and obsessive enemy.
As an interesting contrast (bias?), the Biden-Harris Administration also announced an additional $8B in military aid to Ukraine clearly stating “to win the war against Russian invaders.”
This aid includes precision guided bombs with a range of 130 km, armed drones, air to ground munitions.
These weapons are given to Zelensky without any conditions on him to agree to a ceasefire, or to negotiate a deal with Russia.
The biased comparison is glaring.

It is not only Democrats who hate Jews.
Lenin didn’t hate Jews, he hated “Russian chauvinism”, he though of Trotsky (a Jew) as his successor, and dividing what used to be the imperial Russia into national (ethnic) republics united as the USSR was Lenin’s idea.
I don’t know what Mao or Mussolini thought of Jews.
The Democrat Party hates Jews and Christians.
So did Hitler, Lenin, Mao, Mussolini and Mao.
Hitler admired Islam.
