West, who brought a pair of uninvited guests known for their anti-Semitic views, followed up the dinner with interviews including a Thursday session with Alex Jones in which he lavished praise on Adolf Hitler. In condemning West\u2019s comments, Biden appeared to accuse Trump of giving the spiraling rap and fashion mogul a forum, although he did not use his name.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI just want to make a few things clear: The Holocaust happened,\u201d Biden tweeted. \u201cHitler was a demonic figure. And instead of giving it a platform, our political leaders should be calling out and rejecting antisemitism wherever it hides. Silence is complicity.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Trump, whose daughter Ivanka and her husband, Jared Kushner, are Orthodox Jews, has said he only agreed to meet with West because they have known each other for years and West appears to be in the throes of a meltdown that some believe was brought on by mental illness.<\/p>\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">I just want to make a few things clear:<\/p>\n<p>The Holocaust happened. <\/p>\n<p>Hitler was a demonic figure. <\/p>\n<p>And instead of giving it a platform, our political leaders should be calling out and rejecting antisemitism wherever it hides. <\/p>\n<p>Silence is complicity.<\/p>\n<p>\u2014 President Biden (@POTUS) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/POTUS\/status\/1598714500286406657?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">December 2, 2022<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Biden had no such rebuke last year for the far-Left Democrat lawmakers known as \u201cThe Squad\u201d when they accused Israel of imposing \u201capartheid\u201d and committing acts of \u201cterrorism\u201d against Palestinians, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.timesofisrael.com\/jewish-democrats-accuse-colleagues-of-antisemitism-over-israel-criticism\/\">The Times Of Israel<\/a> reported. Those claims from Reps. Ilhan Omar (D-MN), Rashida Tlaib (D-MI), Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY), and Cori Bush (D-MO) prompted four Jewish House Democrats to write Biden seeking his response. If he offered one, it was never made public.<\/p>\n<p>Trump, on the other hand, made no secret of his pro-Israel agenda during his presidency. Rabbi Dov Fischer, in a November 30 <a href=\"https:\/\/spectator.org\/on-trump-kanye-biscuit-jews-and-dinners\/\">article in The American Spectator<\/a>, praised Trump for a host of pro-Israel actions.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAfter nearly half a century of broken promises by other American presidents, Trump formally declared and America recognized United Jerusalem as Israel\u2019s capital,\u201d wrote Fischer. \u201cHe moved America\u2019s Israel embassy from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Fischer went on to praise Trump for recognizing Israeli sovereignty over the Golan Heights; affirming Jewish communities and cities in Judea and Samaria; cutting off hundreds of millions of dollars in funding to the Palestinian Authority over its payments to the families of terrorists; closing down the Palestine Liberation Organization office in Washington, D.C.; pulling the U.S. out of the anti-Israel U.N. Human Rights Council; and cutting off\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/politics\/us-cuts-nearly-300-million-in-aid-for-palestinian-refugees\">$300 million in funding<\/a>\u00a0to the\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/weekly-standard\/the-overseers-of-jenin\">UNRWA, a UN agency<\/a>\u00a0that runs schools where Muslim children are taught to hate Jews.<\/p>\n<p>Trump also helped bring about the\u00a0Abraham Accords, a deal in which several key Arab Muslim countries entered into peace agreements with Israel.<\/p>\n<p>Biden, in his current administration and in his role as former President Obama\u2019s vice president, has been accused of\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/dailywire.com\/news\/biden-administration-leaks-info-about-israel-the-obama-biden-administration-was-infamous-for-that\/\">leaking information<\/a> damaging to Israel. As a senator from Delaware 40 years ago, Biden was famously dressed down by legendary Prime Minister Menachem Begin when he pounded a table at a Foreign Relations Committee hearing to underscore his demand that Israel stop establishing new Jewish settlements in Judea and Samaria.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis desk is designed for writing, not for fists,\u201d Begin replied. \u201cDon\u2019t threaten us with slashing aid. Do you think that because the U.S. lends us money it is entitled to impose on us what we must do? We are grateful for the assistance we have received, but we are not to be threatened. I am a proud Jew. Three thousand years of culture are behind me, and you will not frighten me with threats.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Related: <a href=\"https:\/\/dailywire.com\/news\/biden-administration-leaks-info-about-israel-the-obama-biden-administration-was-infamous-for-that\/\">Biden Administration Leaks Info About Israel.
