The Biden regime cravenly betrayed Israel as it tried to satisfy its increasingly radical leftist base. People thought that Trump understood the jihad imperative and the need for all countries that jihadis currently threaten to stick together. But Trump seems to have forgotten whatever he may once have known about Islam and jihad, and has an Obama-like enthusiasm for making concessions to the Islamic Republic of Iran in the hopes that its leaders will make a deal with him. And maybe they will. But it will only be one that works to their advantage only.
“US forcing Israel to limit response to deadly Hezbollah blast in Lebanon – report,” World Israel News, August 6, 2026:
The US is reportedly restraining Israel and barring the IDF from major strikes on Hezbollah after two soldiers were killed in a blast in southern Lebanon.
The US intervened to limit the scale of Israel’s military response after two IDF reservists were killed in southern Lebanon, preventing the escalation from derailing US-mediated negotiations between Israel and Lebanon in Rome, according to a Lebanese report published Thursday.
Lebanon’s Nidaa al-Watan newspaper said Washington acted urgently following Wednesday’s explosion in Majdal Zoun and succeeded in confining Israel’s response to a relatively limited series of strikes. The intervention reportedly prevented the violence from destroying progress made during the first two days of negotiations and allowed the third and final day of the Rome talks to proceed.
A Lebanese source said the government in Beirut had also conducted diplomatic and security contacts aimed at containing the situation, but claimed Hezbollah did not cooperate with those efforts. Israel, meanwhile, insisted that it would continue striking threats in southern Lebanon….

Is this in word or in physical restraint? By what means is the “force” applied?
Is it like Andy telling Opie he has to not actually hit the bully? By what means is the “force” being applies?
Josh says
By the fact that the United States arms Israel and underwrites Israel’s defense. Mere threats to withdraw or curtail such support are enough to get Israel in line with whatever bullshit R or D government is in power at any given time.
somehistory says
It’s common knowledge that Israel pays for and gets some (of what it pays for) from the U.S. military complex. But this was a ‘sudden’ forcing. the denial of munitions/weapons, etc. takes time to go through a process in congress. That’s not a “sudden” forcing.
Stive says
Many hollywood stars do it, so why wouldn’t a man with a compulsive deal making disorder not have between his 2 terms made his great deal with the devil. Yes he loves money and gold anything but I think he sold out to Satan and it’s gonna get bad ,so bad that decrepit horrible Biden may seem milder. Time will tell.

Ftterman and his views on Israel….and the muzzie senate nominee
“I can’t come together with someone if you are willing to embrace people that love Hamas, or that think America deserved 9/11,” Fetterman said during the broadcast. “I think that’s reasonable. And I think that’s the reasonable view, being able to kind of be like, well, maybe in pride, ignore those things. That’s not a big tent situation. There are things that are unacceptable to have these views as a Democrat, I think.”
Addressing the broader context of international relations and support for Israel, Fetterman added, “Are we willing to turn our back on Israel? You know, history has demonstrated that if a nation or people will turn their back on the Jewish community, that has some very tragic outcomes.”
“Oh, yeah, yeah, the tough guy, he called me ugly, and then I should be on a pike. And I’m like, chief, I own mirrors. I know I’m an ugly guy,” Fetterman said. “But if you want to put me on a pike, I mean, he has like a really, like, a little man syndrome kind of energy. And now he was really arrogant in that race. And now he has just found out that, you know, less than a majority of Democrats want him.””

RoD says
Head on a pike.
Hassan Piker is a Turkish Muslim. The Turks would behead christians and infidels and put their heads on pikes. That’s what the hidden innuendo was but even Fetterman missed it.
gravenimage says
Rod, I agree that Muslim Turkey has a long and ugly history of murdering Christians. But “Piker” has nothing to do–not directly, anyway–with beheading Christians. And “pike” is an English word–not Turkish.
“Piker” is a varient spelling of the Turkish word “peker”–which means “strong man”.
Horatio says
This is the same gentleman who wants to sell F35s to Erdogan. So what’s to be surprised by?
raja says
Horatio, Looks like the gentleman has not understood the vile schemes of islamists of any or all stripes. There is nothing like justice or fairness for these thugs who are always fighting for one thing or other. For them falling prostrate anywhere and doing the will of devil *like murder, lies* will please the god of islam allah not to forget vigilantism for the devil.

Trump, the enemy of the West and esp Israel
࿗Infidel࿘ says
He got bought off by the muslim electorate in Michigan, which he believes flipped the state to his column. Nothing else explains his fascination w/ Turkey, Pakistan and Qatar
Raja says
grimly true Infidel!!!
gravenimage says
I think that Trump–while genrally anti-Jihad, a good thing–is still dangerously naive when it comes to understanding the the threat of Islam.
࿗Infidel࿘ says
Hopefully, the Israelis respond hard enough that the islamic republic escalates its attacks on both them and the US, allowing at least the Israelis to resume the war and help the Iranian dissidents irreparably damage IRGC/Basij forces to the point that the regime falls
Tim gallagher says
Israel is the only decent, civilised society in that part of the world and is surrounded by Muslim scum of the earth, all of them total savages. Anyone who doesn’t support Israel is a complete arsehole
Helping evil Muslims in any way is both stupid and self destructive for any non Muslim. Muslims hate all of us infidels.
gravenimage says
Yes, Tim–Israel is the *only* democracy in the Middle East.
jimjames says
In Israel we understand the Islamists better than they understand themselves. They have no idea that they are the main evil force on the planet greatly supported by the marxists despite the contradiction between them! Both sides of the red-green alliance practice duplicity and deception. Eventually their hatred is self-consuming.
Rod says
They may have “no idea” who has killed over 70,000 of them, nearly one hundred per day, day after day, week after week for nearly three years, most of them women and children, but I think they probably know very well.
The rest of the civilised world have no doubt whatever. These days the words ‘pariah state’ are more and more widely used.
jimjames says
Take off the fog filled glasses and start with real fact based truths. Who starts all conflicts? Go back to 1924 when Turkey as spokespeople for the defeated Ottomans formally let go of all claims to lands then under the League of Nations and later the UN. You might also familiarize yourself with the Quran and get wise to the ideology of the most imperial force on this planet.
Beans🫘 says
You haven’t studied enough about war. In modern warfare, what we saw in Gaza was unprecedented. It was an extremely dense urban area, where your terrorists intentionally hid under and among civilians to draw those bombs on the civilians to manipulate fools like yourself.
Israel is a trash military if they went over there to do a genocide and only killed 70,000 (Hamas number). I am sure there were intentional killings of civilians. But those are isolated cases, mainly because the Israeli army is a conscript, very young army. A 18 19 year old is capable of anything. Like I said, isolated cases. 70,000 in 3 years, they were not doing a good job of genocide, because even more of your Palestinian hordes were born than died. That means, your population went up during a genocide, a first in world history.
Of course most of the deaths will be civilians. Because such a small number, less than one percent were your Hamas hordes. Whenever possible, Israel went out of their way and even harmed their own interest by extending times for mandatory evacuation of civilians from zones, giving your friends in Islamic jihad and Hamas time to escape to he next tunnel.
If you’re so concerned about genocide, why don’t you go and focus on your Muslims in Sudan, and come here and talk to us about it, what about in China the Uyghurs. You won’t do it because they’re not the Jewish State. I’m not a supporter of Israel, you’re just a sucker who is likely ignoring the facts outright.
jimjames says
If there were genocide like what was done to Jews by Nazi Germany or what was done against Armenia which was systematic slaughter. What could stop Israel from marching through Lebanon and wiping out the whole population? Nothing. Israel is not nearly as tough as it could legitimately be. Israel will hold on to south Lebanon for defense of its northern border. It has no choice. This is absolutely legitimate by international law. Not the Muslim substituting of International Law by Sharia Law but actual historical development of the law.

Jim Jones
He is most likely a Tucker bot. The Muslims got Tucker and not tuckers job is to brainwash as many conservatives as possible to the Islamic jihad cause. Not necessarily violent jihad, but the jihad of struggle. Rod and Tucker are suckers who fight for Muslims interests, and not their own.
People like this is why Americans have gotten comfortable with voting for Mamdani, Abdul, Omar, Talab and others. They normalized the unthinkable. I understand why Trump endorsed the Muslim Amir, last name I don’t remember, it is different because he is not destabilizing our country. But the other ones, we know who they are. And I believe Tucker and the woke right helped normalize them to independents.
Rod doesn’t understand he is a pawn in a game of extremes. It’s not about Gaza and helping save lives. It’s about destroying Israel. The Gaza genocide talk is just to pull in western peoples against Israel, so that it moves the ball forward one more step in destroying Israel.
There’s no lie these people won’t tell. Just like Tucker at the Israeli airport. Perfect example.
gravenimage says
I see that Rod here believes that Muslims have the right to kidnap, rape, and murder Israelis with impunity–and that they have no right to defend themselves. *Ugly stuff*.
Beans🫘 says
I know you’re being facetious. But this is really the crux of their argument. I just wonder how many of them know this. That’s the key whether you are just ignorant or evil.
Rod says
I’m wondering what was the deadly blast in Lebanon.
Perhaps one of the blasts that has killed over 4,000 Lebanese over the past five months?
Or one of the hundreds of blasts that has quite deliberately destroyed hundreds of the houses of innocent Lebanese civilians recently?
Hard to know in scenes of such widespread savagery.
Beans🫘 says
I will make it simple for you. Israel wants nothing to do with Lebanon, and never ever did. That’s where your Muslims go to launch attacks at Israel for the last 50 years. Any sane people wont take that for long, and now your Hezbollah associates are paying the price as is Lebanon for harboring your allies.

First Trump pressured Israel to avoid finishing the job with Hamas–and now the same with Hizballah, *Very* disturbing.
