The current Hamas-Palestinian attack on Israel from the Gaza Strip funded by Iran is the latest example of the dire consequences of Biden’s lack of leadership in the White House.
Biden’s disastrous withdrawal from Afghanistan showed his weakness on the world stage and all the world’s bad actors were watching. This led to Putin launching his invasion of Ukraine. Is China invading Taiwan next? Time will tell.
Iran is funding their proxy war on Israel because Biden foolishly unfroze $6 billion in Iranian assets, from which Trump froze and releasing Iran from the crippling sanctions Trump imposed on them. Imagine the carnage Iran can inflict on the world if, thanks to Biden, they acquire nuclear weapons. Israel is our only true ally in the Middle East and deserves our full support. Hamas is brutally murdering soldiers and innocent citizens in the streets of southern Israel and taking others as hostages into Gaza, making it difficult for the Israeli army to counter attack into the Gaza Strip, an area of roughly 103 square miles.
Before Americans get cocky and say that’s half a world away, they should consider a similar attack could occur here on American soil because Biden has allowed 12 million illegal immigrants from 170 countries, many of those countries hostile to the U.S., to pour across our southern border without vetting. No one knows how many terrorists from hostile countries are currently in the U.S. and what they are planning. It only took 19 terrorists to carry out the 9-11 attacks.
Today’s FBI is more concerned over prosecuting Trump and Trump supporters than uncovering terrorist cells in the U.S.
On another subject, the best way to reduce our deficit is to grow our economy. Forget the Green New Deal and resume drilling, fracking and coal mining. Consider developing nuclear energy. When our economy prospers with more people working, our tax base grows.
Also, we should end foreign aid to countries that hate us. Make them hate us for free.
We must close our southern border and begin deporting illegal immigrants who sneaked into the U.S. back to their country of origin. Instead of spending taxpayer money, feeding them, housing them, etc., the money saved should go, at least in part, to reduce our deficit.
