Although I'm a big fan of Donald Trump and most Americans, it's Israel, most Israelis and PM Netanyahu who are the real heroes!
I can't thank president Trump enough for the support he's given Israel and Jews everywhere. His constant focus on the deadly Iranian regime is exactly what the world needs. Thank you President Trump for finally ordering the bombing of Iran's nuclear sites! It was a great mission for sure with no American casualties. Every stealth bomber hit its target cleanly and escaped also cleanly.
But that was all thanks to the Israelis who earlier destroyed almost all of Iran's air defence and missile sites as well as a host of other important targets like radar installations, IRGC leaders and the top nuclear scientists. Israel still controls the skies over Iran and has been in charge there for a while with no end in sight.
Trump is foremost a politician so he focuses on short term goals instead of focusing on the more difficult long term goals. He genuinely wants peace and he's also the primo deal maker. So of course he'll do anything to make a 'peace deal'. Even if it means that Israel must put up with more terrorist attacks from her enemies. He sometimes says one thing but does the opposite. Usually his actions are on the money but not always.
Israelis also genuinely want peace but by now they understand that simply wanting peace doesn't guarantee you peace at all. Israelis, certainly G-d fearing Jews understand God's decree: If someone comes to murder you, kill him first! Certainly Bibi knows this. He's had Iran on his target for years. Even now he knows that the war with Iran is far from over. Until that nasty, Islamist regime is thrown out, the mission is not over.
Regrettably, Trump's public friendship with enemy states like Turkey, Qatar, Syria and others are very problematic. I'm very sure that Bibi has had words about this and other issues with him on many occassions. But mostly Bibi needs to heed Donald's wishes (again, not always). We see that despite Donald's attempt to stop Israel from attacking Syria, rightly he was ignored. Thanks to Israel, tens of thousands if not hundreds of thousands of Druze and Christians in Syria were saved. Likewise Donald's pressuring Israel for a ceasefire in Gaza and Iran have slowed down Israeli progress on both of those fronts. The Houthis are still active (albeit much less so) even after Trump's peace deal with them.
Trump's attempt to economically sanction the crap out of Iran will not stop the ayatollah's there. Islamists are very patient. They have all the time in the world and are happy to wait out Trump's last term. They might seem to be on their last legs right now, hiding in cellars, but unless they are killed, they will come back with another generation of young murderers.
The Iranian regime must be toppled and it must be done by Iranian citizens. Of course with the help of Americans, Israeli's and any other people who want to rid the world of a terrible evil regime.
Telling the world that the war with Iran is over, makes him look foolish. Stopping the Israelis from finishing off Iran or Hamas is foolish. Dangerously so. If G-d forbid the Ayatollah's survive, historians will inevitably ask 'Why didn't the US or Israel finish them off when they had the chance?'
The world's geopolitical situation is changing very quickly. Many things are happening all over the world all at once. A lot of misinformation and speculation is being published. That being the case, one can't trust much of what we read or see. I still hope that president Trump will remain on the right side of history. I have no reason to think that he won't.
Like many of you, I am still waiting for the release of all of the remaining hostages. I continue to pray for their well being and release.
I’m not a fan of Trump. One, he’s not a politician. He’s a businessman with a narcissistic ego. He doesn’t simply talk but pontificates, thinking the likes of Putin, Xi and others will shake in their boots and do his bidding. Sometimes it works. Sometimes it doesn’t. But I will say, for Israel, having him occupy the White House is a 1000% better than his comatose, appeasing predecessor. So just because I’m not a fan, I absolutely believe that at this moment in time he’s the best person in the White House for Israel.
ReplyDeleteCan he bring peace to the Middle East? Maybe. But without getting rid of Hamas and the Muslim brotherhood, the ayatollahs in Iran, the insidious intrusions of Qatar into the academic and political fabric of the US, his actions will be short lived. In time nothing will change and the hell we’re witnessing and experiencing today, will all come back.
Thanks for your comment Jack. Although we disagree somewhat about Trump (I'm a fan, you are not) I very much appreciate your ability to recognize a friend when you see one. A buddy of mine who is an absolute Trump hater said this to me: Leon, I know that you like Trump because he supports Israel. But what would you do if he turned on Israel? I answered: I would dump him faster than a pile of rocks. That's the difference between you and me. I'm in love with his policies. When they change, I will too. But you were deathly quiet when your folks were in charge. When Obama, Hillary, Biden, Harris and others on the Left were stabbing Israel in the back, making life worse for Americans and the world and when Biden in particular was obviously out of his mind, you said nothing. All you did then and still do is bash Trump. The most Jewish friendly president in US history!
DeleteThe historically illiterate dominate the media which of course is the first step towards totalitarianism ... so all you "folks " who drink the "Trump is bad " kool aid why not review factually specific and relevant ( who cares about grabbing a little putty when every guy wants to and would if they could ) in any case out of context Trump was accurately describing the power of being a star whether you are a man or a woman , Madonna is a slut so is JLO etc ....
ReplyDeleteAs to the "Trump is a business man not a Politician"- so what qualifies Bernie Sanders , OAC , Chuck Schumer, Ilhan Omar etc ?
Fact is there is no standard for becoming a politician - none outside of canvassing your district and making promises you likely wont or cannot keep ---
Trump is a business man and in the world of business you cant make promises you cant keep or eventually you fail ... and of course good business people understand that failure is a lesson on how not to repeat history... Trump has failed at times but recovered ... on his time and his dime ...
So here is a Billionaire who was admired by Oprah who wanted to be his VP by the Clintons , by the media , by the Black community award the Ellis Island prize , Hollywood etc and of course the FAKE NEWS MEDIA lies and lies - the New York Times is a rag owned by a Jew who denied the Holocaust - now any Jew working for a rag like the NYT is testament to how leftist Jews are the worst anti Semites - aka Thomas Friedman , etc ...
Sure believe the fake news -- fact is the entire history of anti Semitism is how FAKE NEWS has been used to target the Jews ...
TRUMP IS MY HERO ----
TOOK OUT IRANS NUKES AND HANDED JEWS THEIR RIGHTS TO THEIR TINY LITTLE ANCESTRAL LAND AFTER BEING OCCUPIED FOR 2000 YEARS BY VARIOUS EMPIRES INCLUDING THE LYING GENOCIDAL BRITS ----
HOPING NEW YORK GETS THIS MARXIST ISLAMIC MAYOR ELECTED ---- JEWS WILL LEARN WHAT IT IS TO BE AN ISRAELI FIGHTING FOR JEWS ......
HAVE A NICE DAY
FYI - IF GAZA IS THE "MOST DENSELY POP AREA IN THE WORLD WITH A POP OF 1.4 MIL IN 2005 CURRENTLY 2.2 MIL IN 2025 HOW IS THERE AN ETHNIC CLEANSING ?
