One should not be shocked by either Cuban or CCP influence via Tick Tok over the rioters on American campuses. Obviously, as per Gadi Taub's a;ways superb writing,. Biden is desperate to do anything to preserve Hamas including floating unacceotable ceasefire proposals and trying to spllit Netanyahu's war cabinet and coalition.

But why? Why would Biden be desperate to preserve Hamas? Why is the US siding with Iran, what’s the logic?

Obama always has viewed the mullahs in Teheran as rational despite their ideology which is and has always been anti American and anti Israel . Biden is implementing Obama's game plan

I know that but you are not explaining why. I know Obama is running the White House but I still don’t understand the geopolitical dynamics of siding with Iran.

Obama like the woke left wants to cut out all domestic oil production-Obama thought that by bribing the mullahs he would get access to a cheap source of oil

That’s a small part of it. Obama is a Marxist bent on destroying the United States and Israel.The Iran nuclear deal is a joke. It prevents nothing. The Iranuan mullahs are Shiite theofascists. Obama didn’t like the Sunni allies in the ME. Valerie Jarrett, his closest advisor, is Iranian. The money the US has given Iran funded this war against Israel.,the behavior only makes sense in the context of somebody determined to upend the existing order in the ME, Israel, and America.

I agree 100%-that is what Obama always meant by "transforming America."

He needs to win Michigan. The Dems would sell Israel to Iran if it meant they'd win in Nov.

Read this article by Lee Smith.

It explains why…and who is the author and driver of such an insane policy.

One has to wonder at the simple-mindedness of the Biden Administration: openly pause an arms shipment to Israel while trying to negotiate an agreement between Israel and Hamas. Wouldn't that embolden Hamas and make it raise its demands, putting an agreement farther out of reach?

Why would anyone argue with the masterminds of the Kabul evacuation?

Gadi Taub, once again, cuts through like a laser to expose the mind-bending machinations of Gantz, the Left and the insidious Biden administration’s efforts to undermine the Israeli government, (BiBi in particular), which, in effect, would not only require Israel to surrender to Hamas, but which would also result in creating the most dangerous and deadly, if not fatal, environment for the nation in nearly 2000 years.

My question is: why does Gantz, and those aligned with him within Israel, not grasp this?

Is it all for the sake of regaining power? Hubris? What?

I cannot for the life of me begin to understand what it is that blinds these people from realizing the stark and deadly realities that their pursuits which they are choosing to align themselves with inevitably lead toward. It is nothing short of suicidal for the entire nation.
