Israel Is NOT the Problem

- Recently, French President Emmanuel Macron came to Jerusalem, where he told Israel’s Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to end the war in Gaza. “The ordeal of the Palestinians in Gaza must end,” Macron said, without even bothering to demand the release of the remaining hostages as a precondition for his fever-dream of a ceasefire. So far, Hamas has rejected all proposals but one, and that came only after extreme military, not diplomatic, persuasion.
- World leaders like Macron play a game of “pretend.” According to it, the situation in the Middle East is an issue between Israel and the Palestinians; and if just that is resolved by establishing of a new Palestinian terrorist state, “peace” will drift down upon the region. Of course, the idea is demented, as the world leaders are undoubtedly aware, but they continue to propose it – but only to the victim, Israel, which was attacked without provocation and is still being attacked; never to Hamas, Qatar or Iran, the parties that ignited the war. The ceasefire that the world claims it wants could be delivered this week if Iran and Qatar seriously ordered their proxies to stop, and Hamas and Hezbollah laid down their weapons.
- Clearly Iran and Qatar have no intention of doing any such thing: they undoubtedly see their job as keeping their proxies in power to be able to strike again.
- World leaders, however, are not demanding that Iran or its proxies stand down. The main reason Ireland, Norway and Spain have recognized a borderless Palestinian terrorist state is that they do not have to live with the consequences. Maybe Spain would also like to recognize a State of Catalonia? Ireland, even at the height of the “Troubles” in Northern Ireland, never demanded that all the Welsh, Scots and English leave Britain, to have it peopled only by Irish Catholics.
- Conspicuously, the same Macron who is ordering Israel to lay down its weapons in Gaza has been silent when it comes to asking that of Hamas and Iran.
- Iran’s proxy Hezbollah already is the main power inside Lebanon; a new ineffectual border agreement will not change that. Furthermore, a border agreement is not what Biden wants. Biden’s policies, like Obama’s, are all about strengthening Iran in every way, including allowing it to fully realize its nuclear ambitions.
- “Most importantly, these profits have enabled Iran to accelerate completing its nuclear weapons program, if it has not already done so and is not just being paid to stay quiet before the US presidential election this November.” — Majid Rafizadeh, Gatestone Institute, June 1, 2024.
For months, a steady stream of world leaders has flocked to Israel to pressure it not to defend itself. Israel has now been attacked incessantly for eight months by Iran and its proxies in Gaza and Lebanon: Hezbollah, Hamas and Palestinian Islamic Jihad. Since October 7, 2023, they have rained down more than 10,000 rockets, missiles and attack-drones on a democratic country smaller than New Jersey, presumably in attempts to obliterate it, or at least cause mass slaughter.
Recently, French President Emmanuel Macron came to Jerusalem, where he told Israel’s Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to end the war in Gaza. “The ordeal of the Palestinians in Gaza must end,” Macron said, without even bothering to demand the release of the remaining hostages as a precondition for his fever-dream of a ceasefire. So far, Hamas has rejected all proposals but one, and that came only after extreme military, not diplomatic, persuasion.
EDGAR- 😀
SEB-
Perhaps Maricon is a better name,
We have to come to terms with the fact that the policy of the Biden regime towards Israel is to bring about the obliteration of the Jewish state. This has been quite transparent for some time, but which many of us have closed our eyes to this horrible reality. This was also the policy of Obama to which many of the same players have returned during the Biden regime, essentially the third Obama term for him to complete what he started. Trump’s presidency stopped this in its tracks which is the reason for the ever-increasing desperate attempts to remove him from office and now prevent him from returning. Biden, being power-hungry, unprincipled and mentally deteriorating has been the perfect conduit from which puppet master Obama can finish what he started in 2008. The best thing about that for Obama is that he can destroy America and Israel while Biden is the one who will get blamed
@Laura I call him, “Macaron” It wasn’t an easy decision but I think I made the right one. 😀
“People also ask

A macaron is a meringue-based sandwich cookie that is tinted with food coloring. A macaroon is a drop cookie made with shredded coconut.”
So, Ganz is Schvanz, Macron is Macaron, Blinken is Blitzen, you know, one of Santa’s reindeer, pulling his sled so he can invade people’s homes in the middle of the night and drop “gifts” on them, Biden is O’biden – (to be cont. 😀 )
Fuck Macron. I’m sick of Europe trying to appease the unappeasable muslim mobs in their streets at the expense of Israeli lives. Throwing Jews under the bus isn’t going to ward off the savages and save France any more than it did during WW2.
Macron is literally a momma’s boy.
