Biden Weak on Iran Threat While Israel Faces Missile Barrage

Retiring President Joe Biden seems to have long since detached himself from reality, especially when it comes to defending America’s closest ally, Israel. His latest display of misguided diplomacy surfaced on Wednesday when he publicly opposed a preemptive strike by Israel against Iran’s nuclear facilities, even after Iran recently launched hundreds of missiles at the Jewish state and has historically backed Hezbollah’s acts of terrorism. His reasoning? A desire for “proportionality,” as if the best response to an existential threat is to carefully weigh one’s options in the middle of a missile barrage.

In classic Biden fashion, when asked if he would endorse a retaliatory strike, he simply said no. Instead, the President opted to engage in a conference call with G7 leaders to discuss crafting new sanctions against Iran, but anyone with a grasp on real geopolitics knows that sanctions are ineffective against a regime that has long mastered the art of playing the West for fools. While Biden and his fellow leaders from Canada, France, Germany, Italy, Japan, and the UK condemned Iran’s latest attack, the lack of tangible action—especially after previous failed sanctions—speaks volumes about the administration’s ability to confront adversaries.

The White House expressed their unwavering support for Israel, yet the President’s endorsement of a “proportional” response raises eyebrows. In an era where decisive action often yields results, Biden’s approach seems more akin to a game of chess, where the opponent has already taken the first move and the pawns of democracy are being picked off one by one. The days of employing shock and awe appear to be relics from a bygone era when America knew how to project strength rather than issuing polite warnings.

This is, after all, the same leader who has prioritized appeasing Iran over supporting Israel at every turn. While the mullahs in Tehran must be chuckling over the Biden administration’s contradictory statements from the safety of their bunker, Israel finds itself under threat from an enemy emboldened by such weakness. With each passing day, it becomes increasingly clear that the Biden administration’s approach has left Israel, and indeed the entire region, in peril.

Adding insult to injury, Biden’s track record includes dubious deals, such as the much-criticized payment of $6 billion to Iran in exchange for the release of U.S. hostages. As if this wasn’t enough to raise red flags, a meeting between Biden and Netanyahu has reportedly been scrapped, underscoring the palpable tension between these two leaders. Netanyahu’s willingness to heed Biden’s advice remains dubious, especially considering that he previously ignored Biden’s demands regarding incursions into southern Lebanon to dismantle Hezbollah strongholds.

In the grand scheme of international relations, America must project strength when defending its allies. But with a leadership team that favors soft stances and disjointed strategies, the question looms: how can Israel trust that it has Washington’s backing? Meanwhile, the shadow of Vice President Kamala Harris looms faintly in the backdrop, further complicating matters. Rumors abound that the mullahs would be thrilled to see her gain more political power, cementing the idea that, in this administration, the wrong people may soon occupy the highest offices. Without clear, strong leadership, the alliance with Israel could hang in a precarious balance, and that’s only the start of the problems.
