Beyond that,\u200b the\u200b U.S. is also reportedly thinking about circumventing Israel and formally recognizing a Palestinian state.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>In other words, while Ukraine is prodded by the United States to fight for every inch of its\u2062 land, Israel is prodded to commit suicide.<\/p>\n<h3>Double Standards in Foreign Policy<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>Indeed, anyone who dares to suggest the United States push \u2063Ukraine to negotiate a settlement with Russia is framed as a democracy-hating Putin shill.<\/li>\n<li>Yet, before we even knew exactly how \u200dmany Israeli\u200d women and children\u200c had been murdered, raped, and kidnapped by Hamas, Democrats were demanding \u200cIsrael negotiate with Palestinians to create a potential\u200c three-front Iranian-proxy terror state on \u2063its border.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Those who wonder what the endgame of a U.S. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/biden-reduces-support-for-s-arabia-in-another-boon-to-iran\/\" title=\"Biden reduces support for S. Arabia in another boon to Iran\">proxy war<\/a> against a nuclear power in Europe might look\u200b like are told that the only acceptable outcome is complete victory for Ukraine. The very future of\u2064 world democracy, we\u200b are assured, hinges on\u200d the integrity of\u2062 that nation\u2019s borders.<\/p>\n<p>Israel, though, is asked to surrender its \u200cterritorial claims and reward those who supported, coordinated, and \u2064participated in a massacre of its civilians \u2014 which included 30-plus\u2063 dead \u2062American citizens \u2014 with a brand new nation. It\u200c is only through \u2062this concession that peace can be realized,\u200c contends the Western <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/the-red-wave-of-conservative-women-elected-to-congress\/\" title=\"The Red Wave of Conservative Women Elected to Congress\">foreign policy<\/a> \u2063elite. Which is weird, considering \u2062Trump circumvented the Palestinian problem and forged a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/white-house-releases-list-of-president-trumps-accomplishments-and-it-is-historic\/\" title=\"White House Releases List of President Trump\u2019s Accomplishments \u2013  And It Is Historic!\">historic peace agreement<\/a>.\u2062 Biden immediately reverted to Obama-era\u200b Iran-coddling \u200c\u2014 and, well,\u2062 here\u200b we are.<\/p>\n<p>Put it this way: Imagine, if you can, the \u2064Biden administration arguing, only weeks after Putin\u2019s invasion, that the only way\u200b to \u201cachieve an\u200d enduring end to the crisis\u201d and \u201clasting\u2064 peace and security\u201d for\u2064 Ukrainians was to create a new Russian ethnic state in \u200bDonbas.<\/p>\n<h3>Double Standards in Self-Determination<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>Really, \u2064doesn\u2019t an ethnic Russian Donbastan deserve the same self-determination \u200cas an Arab Palestinian?<\/li>\n<li>Democrats, of course, would never think \u2063to pressure Volodymyr Zelensky into a ceasefire, much less push him to \u2064negotiate the creation \u2064of a new adversarial territory on\u200c his borders in the name of \u201cpeace.\u201d<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>We \u2063are also told that if Putin\u2063 is handed even a partial \u2064victory, the next thing you know Russians \u200dwill be marching on Berlin. \u200bAmerican troops,\u200b we are warned, will be compelled to defend Europe. At the same time, Israel, \u2062which has never asked a single American soldier to fight for it,\u200d is (yet again) expected to hand its enemies a reprieve.<\/p>\n<p>Allowing\u200b Hamas \u2062to survive \u2063will\u2062 do nothing to further the prospects of peace for anyone in the \u2062region. If Israel \u200bstops now, the war against Hamas will\u200d have been for naught, since a large contingent\u200d of the\u2063 terror army has retreated into Rafah to hide among civilians, as is their wont. Since the United Nations, Gulf theocrats, Iran, and Western powers insist on sending hundreds of millions in aid that is siphoned off by\u2062 the Islamists, Hamas will reemerge in Gaza \u2014 and almost surely in the \u201cWest \u200cBank,\u201d should there\u2063 ever be a Palestinian state.<\/p>\n<p>It also needs to be stressed, \u200dhowever, that what Biden\u2062 demands isn\u2019t really \u200ca \u201cceasefire.\u201d\u200b It is Israel\u200c unilaterally yielding its advantage, \u200csince \u200cHamas hasn\u2019t agreed to any cessation of the conflict \u2014 and even \u2062if it did, \u2064its assurances wouldn\u2019t be worth anything. \u200cLest\u2063 anyone forget, there was a ceasefire in place on Oct 7, 2023. No, the lesson, once again, is that terror works.<\/p>\n<h3>Unequal \u200dTreatment of Israel and Ukraine<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>While both Israel and \u200bUkraine have a right to fight\u2063 for their sovereignty and\u200c people, obviously the two conflicts are unique in \u2063numerous ways. Not all comparisons work.<\/li>\n<li>Jews, for instance, have far stronger historic ties to\u200d Samaria \u200cand Judea than Ukrainians have to Donetsk\u200b or Crimea \u2014 even \u2064though only one has \u200dbeen asked to surrender land for \u2062peace.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Indeed, the only one of \u200dthese two democracies that bestows full rights to its ethnic minorities is portrayed as the apartheid state. Israel has offered Palestinians massive concessions on numerous occasions, including their own state. So even though my hope is that\u200c Putin is severely weakened by his war of aggression\u200c against Ukraine,\u200c Israel\u2019s war against Islamism and terror is \u200dfar more important in\u200d the long-term \u200dbattle \u200bfor \u201cdemocracy.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>But the ugly\u200b truth is that Biden\u2019s reelection prospects are threatened by the emerging progressive left and pro-Hamas faction of the \u2063Democrat Party. And there is no one, no issue, the\u2064 president won\u2019t sell out for votes. This is why \u2064the administration\u2063 sends emissaries to pacify the people who cheered the Oct. 7 attack. This is why\u2064 the White House leaks snippets of Biden insulting Israel\u2019s (elected) leader in a way he would never think to attack Zelensky or Abbas or even the Iranian mullahs.<\/p>\n<p>While\u200d backing Ukraine allows Democrats to virtue signal about their love \u2063of \u2063\u201cdemocracy,\u201d turning on Israel\u200b allows them to appease \u200dthe \u200bgrowing anti-Western sentiment of their base. It\u2019s only \u2064going\u2062 to get worse in the coming years.<\/p>\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator\">\n<\/div>\n<p> <\/p>\n<h2> \u2063 How does the Biden administration&#8217;s approach towards Israeli aid differ from its approach towards other countries in conflict, such as Ukraine?<\/h2>\n<p><span>  Joe Biden&#8217;s Controversial \u200bStance on Israeli \u2062Aid<\/p>\n<p>In recent weeks, the\u200c stance of the Biden administration towards Israel has come under scrutiny and sparked controversy. Not only has President Biden promised to veto any standalone Israeli aid, but there are also reports that his administration is circulating a draft resolution within the United Nations Security Council that would compel Israel to halt its ground offensive in Rafah, effectively giving Hamas a pass.\u200c Furthermore, there are rumors\u2064 that the U.S. is considering bypassing \u200dIsrael and formally recognizing a\u2064 Palestinian state.<\/p>\n<p>This controversial approach raises questions about double standards in foreign policy. On one hand, the United States is pushing Ukraine\u200d to fight\u2063 for every inch of its land\u2062 against Russia. Those who suggest negotiating a settlement with \u200bRussia \u200bare labeled as democracy-hating Putin sympathizers. On the other hand, \u2064even before \u2063the full extent of violence committed by Hamas against Israeli women and children had been\u2064 revealed, Democrats were demanding that Israel negotiate with Palestinians, \u2062potentially creating a three-front Iranian-proxy terror state\u200b on its border.<\/p>\n<p>The discrepancies in the treatment of Israel \u200band Ukraine are \u200cglaring. \u2063While Ukraine is given unwavering support in its fight against a nuclear power, Israel\u2063 is expected to surrender its territorial claims and reward those who have perpetrated acts of\u200b violence against its civilians. This includes individuals who\u2062 have caused the \u200cdeaths of more than 30 American\u2062 citizens. \u200dThe Western foreign policy \u200celite argues \u2062that only through this \u2063concession can peace be achieved, \u2064ignoring the fact that\u2062 the Trump administration was able to forge a \u200chistoric peace agreement by circumventing the Palestinian\u2063 problem.<\/p>\n<p>Imagine if the Biden administration argued, only weeks after Putin&#8217;s invasion of Ukraine, that \u200dthe solution to \u200bthe crisis would\u2063 be to create a new Russian ethnic state in\u2063 Donbas. Such a proposition would\u200b be unacceptable and rightly criticized. Yet, when it comes to Israel, the demand for concessions is seen as the path to lasting peace and security.<\/p>\n<p>There are also double \u2062standards in the\u2062 notion of self-determination. Arab Palestinians are often championed\u2062 for their right to self-determination, but the same \u200bconsideration is not given to ethnic Russian \u2064communities in Donbas. Democrats would never pressure Ukraine&#8217;s President, Volodymyr Zelensky, into a \u200cceasefire or negotiate the creation of a new adversarial territory on its borders in the name of &#8220;peace.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>This inconsistency in policy is concerning. While Putin&#8217;s actions are seen as a threat to global security, Israel is expected\u2064 to grant reprieve to its enemies without any reciprocal gestures. Allowing \u2064Hamas to survive and retreat into Rafah will do \u2062nothing to\u2062 further \u2063the prospects of peace\u2064 in the region. \u200bIt is\u2062 likely that Hamas will reemerge\u2064 in Gaza and, potentially, in the\u200c West Bank if\u200c a Palestinian state \u200bis established.<\/p>\n<p>The Biden administration must reconsider its stance on\u2063 Israeli aid and take \u200ba more balanced approach. Double standards \u200din foreign policy and self-determination only\u200d serve to undermine peace \u200cand security in the Middle East. \u200cIt is essential that the United States supports its longstanding ally, Israel, in its efforts to protect its citizens and \u200dsecure a lasting peace in the region. Only through\u2063 fair \u2064and consistent policies \u200ccan a just and sustainable solution be achieved.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Joe Biden plans to veto Israeli aid and is sharing a UN draft resolution to halt Israel&#8217;s ground offensive in Rafah, favoring Hamas.
