While this roundtable could have been a good first step, on antisemitism, the Biden administration must actually walk the walk.<\/p>\n<p>The event was <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cnn.com\/2022\/12\/07\/politics\/doug-emhoff-antisemitism-roundtable\/index.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">reportedly<\/a> staffed by White House Domestic Policy Adviser Susan Rice, advisers Keisha Lance Bottoms, Josh Geltzer, and Shelley Greenspan, and the special envoy to monitor and combat antisemitism Ambassador Deborah Lipstadt. Groups in attendance <a href=\"https:\/\/jewishinsider.com\/2022\/12\/white-house-roundtable-antisemitism-doug-emhoff-national-strategy\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">included<\/a> the left-wing Anti-Defamation League and National Council of Jewish Women, the American Jewish Committee, headed by former Democrat Congressman Ted Deutch, representatives of the major religious streams of Judaism, some campus groups, the Jewish Federations, and the Conference of Presidents of Major American Jewish Organizations.<\/p>\n<p>Yet the Zionist Organization of America, the leading major American Jewish organization unapologetically defending Israel and the Jewish people, was not invited to the roundtable, nor were other organizations that have criticized left-wing antisemitism or President Joe Biden\u2019s dangerous-to-Jews policies, appointees, and supporters.<\/p>\n<p>President Biden <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/POTUS\/status\/1598714500286406657?s=20&#038;t=x7KM1veBlh1XtPkmjttAfQ\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">tweeted<\/a> that \u201csilence is complicity\u201d when it comes to Holocaust denial. I agree. Therefore, the Biden administration should immediately and vociferously denounce Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas, whose Ph.D. thesis, from a Soviet university, was a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.thejc.com\/lets-talk\/all\/abbass-berlin-press-conference-confirmed-a-deep-truth-about-the-palestinian-president-1408cDOiNbZ1H6mCIwnOGf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">denial<\/a> of the Holocaust that he then expanded into a book. Abbas has repeated this stance numerous times, yet President Biden <a href=\"https:\/\/www.whitehouse.gov\/briefing-room\/speeches-remarks\/2022\/07\/15\/remarks-by-president-biden-and-president-abbas-of-the-palestinian-national-authority-in-joint-press-statement-bethlehem-west-bank\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">calls<\/a> him \u201cmy friend.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The Palestinian Authority <a href=\"https:\/\/freebeacon.com\/national-security\/how-the-palestinians-pay-terrorists-as-biden-pumps-millions-of-aid-dollars-into-their-government\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">pays<\/a> terrorists to murder Jews and Americans in Israel, and it does so with American taxpayer dollars. This \u201cpay to slay\u201d program awards lifelong stipends to Palestinian Jew-killers or their families; the more Jews they kill, the more money they make. Abiding by American law, the Taylor Force Act, then-President Donald Trump ended direct funding to the Palestinian Authority, but almost as soon as he took office, President Biden found ways to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/politics\/u-s-to-restore-aid-to-palestinians-in-235-million-funding-package\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">restore<\/a> that money. You can\u2019t sincerely decry antisemitism if you give money to people who kill Jews.<\/p>\n<p>Furthermore, Abbas himself was reportedly the <a href=\"https:\/\/slate.com\/news-and-politics\/2003\/07\/does-mahmoud-abbas-murky-past-matter.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">financier<\/a> of the 1972 Munich Olympic Massacre in which Israeli athletes and coaches were kidnapped, tortured, and killed. Abbas is not a moderate, but a blood-soaked terrorist \u2014 and yet President Biden calls him a \u201cpartner\u201d and seeks to increase engagement with his corrupt regime, which has repeatedly <a href=\"https:\/\/fathomjournal.org\/the-erasure-from-historical-memory-of-israeli-statehood-offers-and-palestinian-rejections-is-badly-distorting-todays-debate-about-middle-east-peace\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">rejected<\/a> offers of statehood made by the Israelis. Abbas should be utterly condemned.<\/p>\n<p> Biden Administration\u2019s Antisemite Staff <\/p>\n<p>Not long ago, President Biden elevated Hady Amr to the position of special envoy to the Palestinians. Amr is notorious for <a href=\"https:\/\/zoa.org\/2022\/07\/10446078-zoa-opposes-biden-elevating-pro-terrorist-hady-amr-to-be-special-envoy-to-the-palestinians\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">writing<\/a>, \u201cI was inspired by the Palestinian intifada,\u201d the terror wars in which Palestinian Arab terrorists murdered or maimed 10,000 Jews.
