Old Joe Biden couldn’t make it clearer where he stands on the Hamas-Israel war if he screamed “Allahu akbar” and blew himself up in a crowd of Jews.
The alleged president demonstrated, for anyone who was paying attention, which side he is really on in the Hamas-Israel conflict when he went over to Israel in late October and met with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. He took the opportunity to announce that he was giving $100 million to Gaza, which means, despite his denials, $100 million to Hamas, as there is no entity in Gaza that is not controlled by Hamas and could both receive this money and keep it out of the hands of the terror group. As if that weren’t bad enough, now Old Joe and his henchmen are considering sending $10 billion to the Islamic Republic of Iran, the chief funder of Hamas. Yes, it’s so far beyond outrageous that it is coming up on outrageous from the other side, but it’s true nevertheless.
The Washington Free Beacon reported Monday that “the Biden administration may approve a sanctions waiver on Tuesday that will allow Iran to access at least $10 billion in previously frozen funds held in Iraq.” Displaying an admirable talent for understatement, the Free Beacon noted that this is “driving concerns that the Biden administration is maintaining financial avenues for Tehran as the country’s terrorist proxies foment chaos across the Middle East.”
Now, why would the Biden regime even consider freeing up billions for Iran while the “Death to America, Death to Israel” regime is bankrolling not only Hamas, but Hizballah and Palestinian Islamic Jihad in their jihad war against the Jewish state? There are three possibilities: the regime is either stupid, or evil, or both. In this case, the most likely answer is the third: the sinister, senescent, faux-folksy corruptocrat and his cronies are as clueless as they are immoral. Oh, and wrongheaded, and a hundred other things.
Biden and his team are stupid insofar as they apparently still believe that showering money upon the Islamic Republic will lead that rogue, terror-supporting regime to moderate its practices and possibly even grow friendly toward America and possibly even Israel as well. This is a ridiculous idea for the State Department wonks and foreign policy “experts” to have, but they have it nonetheless; in fact, American diplomacy has largely consisted of efforts to buy friends internationally for many decades now.
This seldom works with anyone, but it is particularly doomed to fail when tried upon the Islamic Republic of Iran, where the rulers believe the Qur’an when it says: “And the Jews will not be pleased with you, neither will the Christians, until you follow their religion.” (2:120) Efforts at winning hearts and minds are often seen through this prism, as cynical attempts to begin to lure pious Muslims away from Islam. But of course they have no idea of this in Foggy Bottom, where they’re all bound to believe the iron dogma that Islam is a religion of peace that not only has nothing whatsoever to do with terrorism, but nothing whatsoever to do with contemporary geopolitics.
The evil part of this bargain comes from the fact that if the regime really does manage to send $10 billion to the mullahs, a large part of it, if not all of it, will go for the jihad against Israel. When Barack Obama sent pallets of unmarked bills to Tehran in the dark of night, much of it ended up going to jihad terror groups. What are the chances that at least some of Old Joe’s $10 billion would end up with Hamas, Hizballah, and Palestinian Islamic Jihad? Oh, about one hundred percent.
In response to such concerns, the Biden regime is pretending yet again that the American people have no idea of the most basic principles of economics. It insists that if it does send this $10 billion, it will be earmarked only for humanitarian purposes. The basic lesson of economics here is that getting $10 billion from the United States will free up $10 billion that the Iranian regime would have spent on food for its people, but which can now go to kill Israelis.
The new speaker of the House, in a classic example of failing to notice about fifty elephants in the room, just said that there wasn’t enough evidence to impeach Joe Biden. Well, the fact that the regime is even thinking about sending money to an avowed enemy ought to get Old Joe not only impeached, but tried for treason. But for that, we’d need some genuine opposition that had some guts.
Jeff Bargholz says
Didn’t Jihad Joe already give the mullahs 133 billion or so? WTF? Is “his” administration going to keep printing money and shipping it to our worst enemies?
That’s a rhetorical question.
RS says
If we continue to help rogue regimes without any restraints on saving human life, we are also going to be the victims. Not hard to figure out if there is any rationality left.

Paying ransom only encourages them giving them a Bloody Nose would maybe make them reconsider

That despicable treasonous fiendish villain Joe Biden, is an insidious way providing that aggressive Israel and America hating hostile Islamic regime of Iran with $ Ten billion. Before this most recent betrayal of the State of Israel and the United States, Biden allowed that Islamic tyranny that to obtain $ Six billion. How terribly wicked of Biden .For that belligerent ”mullah regime” of Iran calls Israel “The little Satan and the US “The great Satan.”
We may be sure that either in a direct way or an indirect way will use that money to advance its nuclear weapons program and further its stooge terror/murder jihad organizations which are Hamas, Hezbollah, Islamic Jihad.
Some Westerners might find in a bit interesting that Ayatollah Khamenei as well as the other ayatollahs and mullahs who have so much terrible power in Iran , don’t ever engage in any shootings and bombings , they just have their useful idiots who are the Muslim terrorists those three horrendous jihad entities to the dirty work of murdering of people for them as their tools.
Some of that vast amount of money Biden those in power in Iran to obtain will , without doubt , also be given in support to al Qaeda and ISIS.
Truly, Joe Biden is a treacherous scoundrel.
Walter Sieruk says
Treacherous Joe Biden with his funding Islamic Iran ,repeatedly ,which supports that aggressive Islamic terror/ murder entities ,Hamas. Hezbollah Islamic jihad, Biden even wants to give that hostile and viciously anti-Israel anti- America Islamic Iran everything it wants . Even the means to manufacture nuclear weapons.
Nevertheless as much as Joe Biden hate’s Israel the truth is the God had given all this land that now composes the State of Israel, including all of the West Bank, to the Jewish people. This may be found in the Bible, as seen in, for example, Genesis 28:13-15. 35:10-12. Deuteronomy 32:48,49. Psalm 105:7-11. 135:4.
In other words the Jews have tall this land by Divine Right. Furthermore, the Jewish people should have this land by historic rights as shown in First Kings 4:20,21, 24,25. 8:55, 56.
Still, in all fairness, there is one way for Joe Biden to convince God to change His Mind about being so much for Israel and then cause Him to turn His back on Israel and then have that nation be no more.
That way is for Biden to meet with President Rasis of Iran and the jihadist chiefs of Hamas , then they will change the laws of astrophysics, including those laws of astrophysics the control the sun, the moon and the stars. For God had declared in His Word, the Bible, in Jeremiah 31:35,36. “Thus saith the Lord, Who gives the sun for a light by day and the ordinances of the moon and stars for a light by night…The Lord of host is His name. If those ordinances depart from before Me, saith the Lord, then the seed of Israel also shall cease from being a nation before Me forever.”
Joe Biden is a deluded wicked fool.
Justin Swingle says
with democrats, just folow the money. It may be a long road, and through many phony LLC’s, but ultimately, in the end, it will land in their pockets!
MUSLIM DICTATORS….. who do you believe funds Presidential libraries and phony Democrat Party family slush fund foundations?
Qatar’s (HOME TO HAMAS LEADERSHIP) longstanding efforts to buy influence in the United States have, quite unsurprisingly, included substantial donations to the Clinton Foundation. In 2011, for example, the foundation accepted a $1 million gift from Qatar in honor of former president Bill Clinton’s 65th birthday. Hillary was serving as secretary of state at the time, but failed to disclose the massive donation to the State Department despite her pledge to keep the agency apprised of the foundation’s foreign donors.

Great Article. The Biden Administration is both Evil and Stupid and do nothing Positive for the American People.
Jeff says
The answer is they are treasonous, evil America haters. There is no other way to explain this.
Gary Hope says
Is it really ByeDUMB or is it Hussein Obammy and MoosHELL? Who else? Black racist Valerie Jarrett? It’s a long list of Black racists DimOHcraps. Treasonous scum..
Gary Hope says
Do you publish a list of certain key “Offensive words” that we can check before we waste out time posting “offensive” comments? Where can we access the list please so we don’t waste our and your time? Thank you.
Fred A. says
The United States should not be involved in this conflict whatsoever on either side.
TRex says
Just a thought. Isn’t $6b or $10b in “sanctions relief” a small price to pay for the hundreds of billions that will go to the military/industrial complex to, eventually, provide weapons to the enemies of Iran and its proxies?
Christopher Watson says
It’s difficult to believe that a real American President would be so stupid as to give money, a great deal of it, to a regime which is so obviously, anti-American. A regime which displays its hatred of America for all to see. There is no European leader who would even dream of being quite so stupid. In the 1930s we had Neville Chamberlain who believed that Hitler could be manipulated but he didn’t last long. There is a fault in the American system which has led to this. Whether Biden cheated in the 2020 election is a mute point but his behaviour on the world stage since winning the election has been mind-blowingly infantile and treasonous. In any other country he would have been removed. Even when one of our KIngs was insane he was ‘deleted’ for a time. Biden has displayed for quite a while a distancing in reality. There must be legal way he can be retired from public life. No country can allow a man who is mentally unstable from holding high office.
