The Biden Drone Attack on Israel

The opinions expressed by columnists are their own and do not necessarily represent the views of Townhall.com.

Last night as the attack on Israel was unfolding all of the news coverage broke in to announce that Biden and Netanyahu were scheduled to speak within minutes.

I for one would have really liked to have overheard that conversation.

Because the long and the short of it is this.

Last night’s drone attack was funded by Joe Biden. Everyone on planet Earth knows it. And there is nowhere to hide for the beach-going shuffler in chief. 

The bottom line of this is—we are all in deep trouble.

Factual reminders you only heard on Fox News and NewsMax last night: Under Donald Trump Iran was broke and would have never been in a position to launch the scale of attack they did last night—much less coordinate and execute the attack of October 7.

People who are pretending to be journalists might look shocked but the Hamas attack of 10/7 was completely designed, strategized, and executed by Iran. Iran loves using its Arab cousins to die in attacks against “the Satans” because it means fewer Iranians die. So they pour money into Hezbollah, Hamas, and the Houthis but where does it come from?

Joe Biden. 

For some weird, perverse reason the Obama Administration had a love for Iran that was insatiable. And in the middle of the night platefuls of pallets filled with cash of every currency except dollars made their way to Tehran directly from the Obama administration.

Seeing that Iran was eating our lunch and hurting our allies and interests around the globe President Trump cut the Iranian funding off. Told the Iranians the nuclear deal that allowed them to pursue nuclear weapons was over and then placed sanctions not just on Iran but any and every nation that could not prove that they had ended any business with the regime. 

Iran couldn’t sell its oil and it had to come to the negotiation about its future with a different posture. 

From the minute Joe Biden was in office the money began flowing—more than $100 million in money sent to them to date—and they immediately began building their arsenal and arming their foot soldiers. 

When Israel took out seven top Revolutionary Guard commanders in Damascus it was the most embarrassing blow the regime had suffered since Trump’s taking out of Qasem Soleimani. Both attacks took out the top terror masterminds in the Iranian system.

The difference in Iran’s response is purely the fault of Joe Biden. 

Under Trump Iran had no capacity to mount an effective response to his termination of Soleimani. But Joe Biden’s been feeding them cash like breakfast cereal.

Another important note: Why did Joe Biden abandon his duty last night to inform the American people personally of what was unfolding?

American forces were instrumental in the defeat of the nearly 200 drones, cruise, and ballistic missiles that were launched from Iran and her proxies last night. It was reported in multiple outlets that in fact Jordanian and American forces shot down some of the arsenal long before they reached the Israeli air-space. 

As President, he had a duty to inform us as to our role, the extent, and the mission of why he launched our pilots into action. 

Yet Joe Biden failed to do so.

Why? 

In all likelihood because it would have forced his reluctant support of Israel to be put on center stage all over again. And his support for the Jewish state is tanking his poll numbers in Michigan and Minnesota. (Places where the Obama administration specifically targeted to relocate Islamic immigrants who have never once demonstrated overt support for the nation that took them in.)

Joe Biden gave Iran the money that allowed them to coordinate and launch the October 7 massacre. Joe Biden continues to parrot the Iranian nonsense about the need for a ceasefire. Joe Biden was surprised by Israel’s own initiative to take out Iranian masterminds of terror. And Joe Biden saw to it that Iran could sell the oil and receive the money he allocated for them that was used to launch the unprecedented attack on Israel last night.

He was too chicken to even face the American people to own it.

Our President hates our best ally in Israel and he seems to care not much more for America herself.

It’s time to end the Biden reign of chaos.
