Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen recently warned Israel against cutting off Palestinian banks and spoke about the need to increase aid to Gaza, that is, Hamas, even further. Yellen’s words gained little attention, as the Biden regime’s betrayal of Israel is now old news. It is now widely known that the regime, deeply afraid that it could lose Michigan in November, has brought a seventy-year-old alliance perilously close to rupture to gain the Arab vote. Yet the betrayal of Israel didn’t begin when the polls started looking bad for Old Joe. The seeds of it were planted long before Hamas massacred 1,200 Israelis on Oct. 7, 2023.
Back during the 2020 campaign, Old Joe vowed: “My administration will look like America, Muslim Americans serving at every level.” Although his career is an appalling record of seven decades of lying, this is one promise he has kept. On May 15, I wrote here at PJM about Maher Bitar, Old Joe Biden’s new special counsel and director of intelligence and defense programs at the National Security Council. Bitar is a longtime foe of Israel and an alumnus of the viciously anti-Israel campus group Students for Justice in Palestine. Bitar, however, is not even close to being the sole foe of Israel at high levels among Biden apparatchiks.
The man to whom the Biden regime has given the responsibility of being its special representative for Palestinian affairs, a particularly important post during this war, has declared: “I was inspired by the Palestinian intifada.” Hady Amr has also said that Palestinian Arabs would “never, never forget what the Israeli people, the Israeli military, and Israeli democracy have done to Palestinian children. And there will be thousands who will seek to avenge these brutal murders of innocents.” He did not, of course, say a word about Hamas’ long-established practice of launching jihad attacks from civilian areas, so that retaliatory fire could be used for propaganda purposes.
Yet despite his obvious bias, Amr has been the regime’s point man for Israeli and Palestinian issues from the beginning. Before getting his present job, he was Deputy Assistant Secretary for Israeli and Palestinian Affairs in the Bureau of Near Eastern Affairs within the State Department.
When reading about the regime’s latest accusation that Israel is violating human rights norms, it’s useful to keep in mind that the State Department’s undersecretary for civilian security, democracy, and human rights is Uzra Zeya. Zeya has “worked for the magazine Washington Report on Middle East Affairs and its publishing group, American Educational Trust. The Washington Report has questioned the loyalty American Jews have to the United States; published accusations against the ‘Jewish lobby’; claimed American Jews control the media; and accused the Mossad of perpetrating the assassination of former President John F. Kennedy and the Sept. 11, 2001 terrorist attacks.
Bihar, Amr, and Zeya had plenty of company, but some of the Israel-haters have now departed from the regime. Most notorious among them was Robert Malley, who served as the regime’s special envoy to Iran until June 29, 2023. He is not on the Biden team at the moment because his security clearance was revoked and he was put on leave over his alleged mishandling of classified information.
Malley’s support for Iran’s Islamic regime and pronounced distaste for Israel had raised eyebrows for years. The Washington Times revealed in February 2021 that back in July 2019, “Iran’s smooth, English-speaking foreign minister, Mohammad Javad Zarif, met with Robert Malley, who was President Obama’s Middle East adviser, in an apparent bid to undermine the Trump team and lay the groundwork for post-Trump relations.”
Malley has made clear for years that he was hardly an unbiased mediator. An Israeli security official noted in February 2008 that Malley “has expressed sympathy to Hamas and Hizbullah and offered accounts of Israeli-Palestinian negotiations that don’t jibe with the facts.” Obama dropped Malley in May 2008 after it came to light that he had met with representatives of Hamas, but six months later sent him as an envoy to Egypt and Syria.
Also now departed, as of July 28, 2023, is the former Biden regime Deputy Secretary of State, Wendy Sherman. Before her work with her Bidenite comrades, Sherman was the lead negotiator of Barack Obama’s disastrous nuclear deal with the Islamic Republic of Iran.
Then there was Reema Dodin, who, until her resignation on June 16, 2023, was a deputy director of the White House Office of Legislative Affairs. According to the Jerusalem Post, “during the Second Intifada, in 2002, Dodin spoke about the Palestinian-Israeli conflict with residents of Lodi, Calif., saying that ‘suicide bombers were the last resort of a desperate people.’” Also, “in 2001, Dodin took part in a demonstration at UC Berkeley calling for the university to divest from Israel….The demonstrators compared Israel to apartheid South Africa.”
Colin Kahl was Undersecretary of Defense for Policy until July 17, 2023. Like the others, Kahl had “quite the anti-Israel record. He thinks the bombing of the nuclear reactor in Iraq was 1981 was a mistake. In 2012, he acted to remove the recognition of Jerusalem as Israel’s capital from the Democratic Party’s platform. In 2015, he was among those to formulate the Iran nuclear deal. In 2016, at the end of his term, then-US President Barack Obama tasked him with enlisting support for the anti-Israel UN Security Council Resolution 2334 that determined Israeli communities in Judea and Samaria were a violation of international law.”
It’s quite a rogue’s gallery of hacks, ideologues, and jihad enablers. With so many of them still in place, the only surprise is that the Biden regime didn’t betray Israel even sooner.
Once upon a time the State Department and national security council officials were Arabists.This administration’s foreign policy is dominated by supporters of Hamas
At least one Arabist “went native,” John Brennan.
Yes, Yahyah Brennan is a stealth Moslem, and not very stealthy. I’d love to punch his face in.
I don’t see the difference.
The civil service in britain is exactly the same.
The Arabists weren’t necessarily pro-Islam.
One was – J. Brennan.
It’s almost comical how his $320,000,000 port fell apart in a slightly windy storm. Maybe it was a good thing since Hamas was stealing the aid and using it for themselves or selling for a nice profit.
Prez Obama and his Sec of Def Gates were spot on in their assessment of this clown.
With a couple significant supporters working in the WH.
Biden himself threatened Israel with a cut off in US aid in 1982. That was almost 40 years before he served as a stand-in for the Kenyan Marxist Narcissist in Barack Hussein Osama’s unacknowledged third term.
Of course, Dementia Joe always articulates [sic] the opinions of those who fill his head, an empty vessel.
Robert I think you are correct that the seeds of the old guy were planted a long time ago just not as you wrote. Come on so tired of hearing that the Democrats will lose Michigan if they support Israel, don’t believe that even with this thought processes I don’t believe that the Muslims any where in America would vote Republican who have told America how much they are against them and stand with Israel. To me it boils down to the age old anti-Semitism, no matter how much the old guy tells us he stands with Israel old enough to remember 1982 and what he told Begin, and he meant it than, as well as he means it now.
To my fellow Jews: If you vote for Biden, you ain’t Jewish.
Yep, the fraud, pathological liar, treasonous crook, pedophile, demonic demented dementia Joe Bite-Me said that about blacks voting for President Trump. How can any Jew vote for Biden? Since the diaspora Jews have lost our identity and so many keep voting for the wrong people from hitler, to obama to biden….it’s time to pull it together and know the demoncraps are not for the Jews or any other race except the kkk, Jim Crow, never give equal rights to non-whites. FDR and JFK and Truman were the rare exceptions. LBJ had his war on poverty. This is not today’s commie marxist satanic demoncRats
FDR and Truman were both anti-Semites. FDR kept Jews out of the US during the Holocaust and Truman never let his business partner, Eddie Jacobson, enter his house because he was Jewish.
To the best of my knowledge, JFK and LBJ were not anti-Semites.
Since the Six Day War, the Democratic Party has been progressively becoming more anti-Semitic as they subscribe to the adolescent morality of Marxism of the “underdog” being morality in the right. Today we see it in the “oppressor/oppressed” or “colonizer/colonized” language of the moral morons.
The Saudi and Qatar and various other scum depraved Islamic “Royal” families have got the magic touch for corrupting US government and corporate and institutional leaders and officials.
These depraved psychopathic murderous berserk Freedom crushing Islamic “Royal” families control the OPEC chokepoint of the worlds oil/energy supply.
Their huge oil/energy resources and wealth/cash have been corrupting American foreign policy decisions and American politicians and corporations and American institutions since the early 1970’s.
Israel does not have these oil/energy resources and cash.
And Israel with its tiny population of only about 9 million does not even compare with the 1.3 billion Moo–Slum potential customer market.
That is why the morally corrupt Biden/democrat administration is stabbing Israel in the back.
The political and corporate and institutional powers in America are doing a cold blooded cost-benefit analysis and they have concluded that the Islamic scum is worth far more in profits than tiny Israel could ever offer..
That is why Israel is being thrown under the bus by many of the US political and corporate and institutional elite.
They just do not care …. like they do not care about working and middle class US citizens.
The ruling elites in America want the oil/energy resources and wealth/money of the depraved Islamic scum more than they care for Israel, Jews, and US working and middle class citizens.
America is now at an historical crossroad where it may fall into the morally corrupt abyss that has led many other societies and empires to their final demise.
Depraved psychopathic murderous violent berserk Freedom crushing morally corrupt Islam has been a scourge on humanity for 1400 years.
Enough already.

Barrack Obama, Michelle Obama, Valerie Jarrett, Suzy Rice, Cass Sunstein Mr. nudge theory his wife Samantha Power, John Kerry I could go on for ever,
Joe Biden has been a racist and an anti-semite all of his miserable life.
OBiden/Obama is/are sleazebags, turncoats, traitors, demonic minions, cowardly Jew haters and just about every other adjective you can spell.
BUT, that is the way it is supposed to be. Most people will not realize this until it is far too late for them, but this is God’s Final curtain, His ‘last act’, His closing chapter in His 6,000 year plan to redeem a fallen mankind. But about 90% of ‘humankind’ has said, loudly and clearly, “we don’t want no God”. We want a bunch of little gods that we can control and do what we want. We want Buhda’s, Vishnu’s and every little god or idol that we can invent instead of a demanding, narrowminded God that says He died for us and all we have to do is believe that His Son Jesus is God, and He promises us Eternal life in Paradise.
So God knew that only a few would take HIm up on His offer of eternal life with Him, so He has allowed mankind to ‘do themselves in’. He has given them “the desires of their hearts’ in the here and now, at the price of an eternity in hell.
And now it’s over. Time’s up ! The 6,000 year plan is just about done with a world jockeying to see who will drop the first nuclear bomb. How many more can we kill with the ‘jab’? It is super profitable ($10,000.00 a pop) to disfigure, mutilate and remove the sex organs of our little children “that God gave us to protect, by the way….you can bet He is not too happy about that’. Leave the borders open so every deviant and criminal mind can come and help themselves to what we worked all of our lives for. And on and on, ad nauseum.
So here we are. The end of time. No going back from this one. Obiden/Obama have ‘fundamentally changed America’ but the God of the Universe, the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob, is about to ‘fundamentally end the world as it is,throw out the trash, and begin a whole new world with no sleazebags (sinners).
Are you up or it??? I am, and I’m getting out of here very soon. The only ‘trans’ I’m looking for is my ‘transport’, “in the twinkling of eye”.
Maranatha, come Lord Jesus……….
