Trump will correct Biden’s misconceptions about Israel and facilitate peace
Israel reportedly eliminated Hezbollah terror leader Ali Musa Daqduq in Syria on Sunday, providing a sense of justice to US military veterans of the Iraq war.
In 2007, Daqduq and his followers infiltrated a US base in Karbala, Iraq, killing one soldier and kidnapping four others, who were later brutally executed. CENTCOM sources have expressed confidence that Daqduq was indeed killed.
Israeli forces have eliminated many terrorists with American blood on their hands since Iran initiated a seven-front war against Israel last year.
However, the accomplishments of Israel make President Joe Biden and his advisors uneasy because they reveal a truth that the Biden administration has refused to acknowledge.
Israel’s enemies are America’s enemies. When Israel defeats its enemies, America triumphs.
Biden and his team are not the only ones uncomfortable with this reality. For over three decades, the US foreign policy establishment has repeatedly failed to produce successful policies because they collectively refused to accept that Israel is America’s greatest ally in the Middle East.
Instead, they insisted that Israel is the source of regional instability and that the key to peace was for Israel to appease its enemies, all of whom seek its destruction.
Since this goal is clearly unattainable, all such efforts failed.
The cycle of US-induced appeasement, instability, terrorism, and war led to further US-induced appeasement, continuing in a never-ending pattern.
Donald Trump is the only US president in the past 30 years to base his decisions on reality.
His acknowledgment of Israel as America’s greatest regional ally enabled him to recognize that a stronger Israel means less intervention required from America. On the other hand, a weaker Israel would necessitate more intervention from America.
Benjamin Netanyahu is the only Israeli leader in the past generation who has chosen not to align with the delusions of America’s elite.
Netanyahu has consistently refused to accept responsibility for the actions of Israel’s enemies and has resisted empowering them to avoid clashes with Washington.
Eight years ago, Trump and Netanyahu’s complementary views set their nations on a path to unprecedented achievements.
The Abraham Accords of 2020 were the result of four years of unwavering commitment to regional peace through American support for a strong Israel and preventing Iran from becoming a nuclear power.
This momentum towards regional peace came to an abrupt halt when Biden took office.
Biden’s determination to restore delusion to America’s Middle East policy has strengthened Iran and its terrorist allies.
This delusion paved the way for the seven-front regional war that began on October 7.
Trump’s promise of restoring reality to US Middle East policy is coming soon.
Netanyahu revealed that he had spoken with the president-elect three times since Trump’s victory on November 5, focusing on the “Iranian threat.”
“We share the same views on the Iranian threat in all its aspects and the risks they pose,” Netanyahu stated. “We also see the significant opportunities for Israel, particularly in the area of peace and its enhancement, among other areas.”
Biden and his team have prevented Israel from attacking Iran’s nuclear facilities, claiming that such an action would lead to a regional conflict requiring direct US military involvement.
Trump understands that an Israeli strike on Iran’s nuclear sites would end the 400-day regional war, allowing the US to remain uninvolved.
Netanyahu’s reference to the “expansion of peace” in his comments alludes to what the aftermath of the war under Trump will bring.
With solid American backing reinstated, Israel will ensure peace by controlling Gaza and a security zone in south Lebanon, while Trump will reimpose US economic sanctions on Iranian oil exports.
Without their nuclear facilities, their terrorist allies, or their oil revenues, and facing an administration committed to supporting Israel, Iran’s jihadist regime will soon lose its grip on power.
The Iranian people, long oppressed, will finally have the opportunity to overthrow the ayatollahs.
With Iran’s threat eliminated and Israel emerging victorious in the war, Trump and Netanyahu will usher in a new era of peace.
Their partnership will transform the Middle East from a zone of conflict and poverty to a region of peace, stability, and prosperity.
