Israelis. With Hamas raining rockets on Israeli civilians this is the equivalent of backing Hitler against Bambi.
But that’s the way Democrats have rolled for decades as the party supported by the majority of America’s Jewish voters continues to harbor America’s most virulent anti-Semites and tilt toward those who would happily make a new Holocaust in the Jewish homeland.
The roots of the violence of the past week are not hard to figure out. And they are not to be found in the obscure property disputes and arguments over who can access the Temple Mount when – they are found in the Palestinian intuition about how Biden and company will respond to renewed violence between Arabs and Israelis, and their recognition that they have a claque of especially vicious anti-Semitic supporters in the Democratic Party who will be useful in pushing Biden to support them.
This would not, and did not work when Donald Trump was President, but with Biden determined to reverse everything President Donald Trump did, especially his commitments to Israel, the Palestinians recognize their moment has arrived.
And why wouldn’t they?
With Democrat politicians like Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and Sen. Elizabeth Warren, calling Israeli conduct “abhorrent,” and the Biden administration making what Jonathan S. Tobin of the New York Post called “moral-equivalence noises” their violence is being rewarded.
Our friend Rabbi Spero, president of Conference of Jewish Affairs, offered this insightful analysis of the effect of Democrat “moral-equivalence noises” in a statement issued Monday: “It is particularly concerning that, as Israel is under attack, back here in the United States, the anti-Israel fools of ‘The Squad’ in Congress -- Reps. Ilhan Omar, Rashida Tlaib, Ayanna Pressley, and Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez -- are once again questioning U.S. aid to Israel. We believe it is inappropriate and dangerous for United States Congress-women to indicate – directly or indirectly -- support for Arab terrorism against Israel at this or any other time. The Biden State Department and Senator Elizabeth Warren are likewise threatening peace by their recent irresponsible statements that embolden both Hamas and the Arab rioters in Jerusalem.”
But that’s not the worst of what’s emanating from Democrats and the American Left.
Far Left Muslim House Democrats Andre Carson, Rashida Tlaib and Ilhan Omar were quick to claim that moral equivalence for the Palestinian terrorists. "Many will tell you Israel has a right to defend itself, to safety and security, but are silent on whether Palestinians have those rights too," Omar tweeted. "Until we can defend the rights of Palestinians just as we do Israelis, we have no leg to stand on when it comes to justice or peace."
And the Washington Free Beacon reported, IfNotNow, a progressive advocacy group that claims its membership is primarily Jewish, took to Twitter on Saturday to promote video footage of violent Palestinian rioters in Jerusalem.
"Incredible, inspiring images of Palestinian resistance coming out of Jerusalem tonight," IfNotNow said in a since-deleted tweet. "American Jews are with you." The tweet included video footage of Palestinians yelling in Arabic for Tel Aviv to be bombed.
There is no moral equivalence between Israelis keeping order on the Temple Mount, where Muslims have turned religious edifices into weapons caches and hideaways for terrorists, or Israelis using the rule of law to sort out 70-year-old property disputes arising from the Arab effort to exterminate the nascent Jewish state and its Jewish citizens.
We join Rabbi Spero in believing it is time for the Biden Administration to step up and enunciate a clear pro-Israel policy, as well as to follow through on implementing the Abraham Accords peace initiatives. Biden’s stated desire to re-start the ‘Iran Deal,’ the JCPOA, is strengthening terrorist-supporting Iran and emboldening anti-Israel jihadists in the region.Islamist terrorists with territorial ambitions against Israel are noticing the weak and confused policies coming out of the current White House and are taking advantage of that appeasement by Biden.

We had four years of peace in the mideast with Trump in office. Now, after only four months of Biden, war has broken out. Unfortunately, this is unlikely to be the only war in the near future. Many countries smell blood in the water where the United States is concerned. While China, North Korea, Iran and Russia are beefing up their forces, ours are standing down to ferret out suspected racists and throw more resources into surgical procedures for people with gender confusion. Look for Taiwan to fall soon and Russia to take over the Ukraine. We are weak and getting weaker.
Geez, what's not to get about leftists demanding that those with whom they disagree not be able to defend themselves from attacks? It's like, in this country, the police must be defunded while at the same time the populace must be disarmed. And so it must be in Israel, according to the squats, that Hamas can cause as much death and destruction as possible without any response from the Israelis. Easy peasy...
Curious here. It seems as if several, all but two comments, have been deleted from this forum. Justification?
Maybe I missed it but Bambi wasn't mentioned in the piece.
Disney did Bambi which was in part about the supposed evil of guns. Most of his animated films had features against the Constitution or Christian morals.
Democrats want gun control and Disney promoted it. Humans have dominion over animals and vegetarians have it wrong.
Let's take a look at current news reporting events, Kerry "tells all" to Iran about Israel's "secret raids" against Iran, Biden then starts payments to Palestine, giving them funds to buy rockets for Hamas from Iran using them in attacks against Israel. Biden shuts down keystone pipe line, Colonial pipe line gets shut down, guess Kerry will take solar panels down south instead of gasoline, Biden will issue electric cars for all Illegals so that they won't be inconvenience by current events. Who is calling the shots at the white House ? Why is Biden off limits to the press questions? Why are the white house visit/ phone logs off limit to the public? Stick to your American ideals folks:…
