    Biden failed the Israel-Palestinian rocket and riot test - analysis
    Biden’s mistakes began before the first rocket was fired: US Mideast policy expert

    The policies of the Biden administration have inadvertently contributed to the lethal round of hostilities in Israel and Gaza, some Israeli analysts claimed on Wednesday.
    The escalation “is a test and [US President Joe Biden] has failed,” said Prof. Eytan Gilboa, an expert on US policy in the Middle East at Bar-Ilan University.

    Back in February, Biden lifted the designation of the Iranian-backed Houthis in Yemen as a global terrorist organization. Analysts said that the president believed the move would reduce violence in Yemen and against Saudi Arabia, but it has produced the opposite result.

    “If you are a terrorist organization, and you don’t do anything and sanctions are lifted against you, this means you can do whatever you want,” Gilboa said. “Other terrorist organizations in the Middle East, like Hamas, look at this and say, ‘This is what the US is doing? Very good. We can exploit it.’”
    In April, Biden announced that America would restore some $235 million in aid to the Palestinians that had been withdrawn by former President Donald Trump. About two-thirds of the money is being given to the United Nations Relief and Works Agency (UNRWA), which Trump cut off in 2018 because of its ties to terrorism.
    “Hamas and Islamic Jihad were looking and saying to themselves that if the US restored this aid unconditionally, then we can do whatever we want,” Gilboa explained.
    Finally, that same month, the US lifted sanctions on International Criminal Court prosecutor Fatou Bensouda, also without any conditions.
    Amid the violence, the administration has likewise shown a lack of understanding of the situation, including falsely equating Israel with Hamas and Islamic Jihad.
    Hamas and Islamic Jihad have been inciting violence and terrorism for weeks inside Israel and the Palestinian territories, and specifically on the Temple Mount, in response to a decision by the Palestinian Authority to cancel the elections that Hamas hoped to win. Their goal is to take over the West Bank and turn it into another Gaza, Gilboa said.
    “The US is strengthening terrorist organizations who are against peace,” he said.

    Trump turned the money tap off to Iran, Biden has turned it back on, so now they can fund the attacks on Israel again. Nothing to do with paradigms, not rocket science, with Trump in the White House they were very afraid of the repercussions if they gave the green light to attacks on Israel, they are not in the least concerned about a braindead Lefty in the White House.

    So here we are again, the Middle East in flames again and the poor buggers in Gaza bearing the brunt again, didn't take long did it, how long has Trump been gone ? All so very, very predictable.

    This all started because the Israeli police decided to lob stun grenades into a mosque and accentuated the crisis because Jews in East Jerusalem want to evict Palestinians from their homes because the Old Testament says the land belongs to Israel.

    How this is Joe Biden's fault is anybody's guess?

    If Trump had left Jerusalem to the Israeli Jews and Israeli Arabs to sort out instead of siding with the obnoxious Netanyahu this $hit might not be happening.

    Iran are unquestionably sending aid for Hamas missiles. Not doing much good though 200 have misfired, have not left Gaza and are doing the IDF's job for them by killing the missile projectors in misfire ignitions.

    Jews in East Jerusalem want to evict Palestinians from their homes because the Old Testament says the land belongs to Israel.

    Its correct ,that it is written Genesis -15-7, And He said unto him: 'I am the LORD that brought thee out of Ur of the Chaldees, to give thee this land to inherit it.' But the Muslims also accept the Bible (Tanach).
    Muhammad, the founder of Islam, is reported to have said the following:

    Surah 2:136: 'We believe in Allah, and the revelation given to us, and to Abraham, Ismail, Isaac, Jacob, and the descendants (children of Jacob) and that given to Moses and Jesus and that given to (all) Prophets from their Lord: We make no difference between one and another of them: and we bow to Allah (in Islam)'. (Surah 2:136)

    If the Muslims take the Bible as Gods Holy words
    Quran 2:285. The Messenger [Muhammad (Peace be upon him)] believes in what has been sent down to him from his Lord, and [so do] the believers. Each one believes in Allah, His Angels, His Books, and His Messengers.

    Quran (3:84) Say: 'We believe in Allah and what was revealed to us and what was revealed to Abraham and Ishmael and to Issac and
    Jacob and his descendants, and the teachings which Allah gave to Moses and Jesus and to other Prophets. We make no distinction between any of them72 and to Him do we submit.
    If Arabs bought that house and have the required papers ,deeds etc .But if they just took it after Jews were forced out ??
    Jews in East Jerusalem want to evict Palestinians from their homes, if they have acquired that home illegally.
    In the 1967 census, the Israeli authorities registered 66,000 Palestinian residents (44,000 residing in the area known before the 1967 war as East Jerusalem; and 22,000, in the West Bank area annexed to Jerusalem after the war). Only a few hundred Jews were living in East Jerusalem at that time, since most Jews had been expelled in 1948 during the Jordanian rule.

    It is a sticky 'mess' here, I can not say who is right or wrong.

    I'm just trawling through the New Testament to see if Jesus actually said, "For those who believe in me, they will receive a brand new Porsche".

    It's my birthday today, so a new 911 would be rather nice!

    BT That's very interesting ....with attempts by Israeli settlers to appropriate Palestinian properties in Jerusalem, "because God says so".

    Because God says so, now were does it say this?

    Arabs have their lawyers etc. If they have the necessary deeds etc ,There is nothing in our Courts of Law. But if the just took it after Jews were expelled after 1948 under Jordanian occupation??

    Please Look BT : Since you do not know Jerusalem from this photo you see rioters.

    https://www.nbcnews.com/think/opinio...as-ncna1266890


    Palestinians run away from tear gas during clashes with Israeli security forces at the Al Aqsa Mosque compound in Jerusalem's Old City on May 10.Mahmoud Illean / AP

    But the photo shows rioter running alongside the Mosque 'Dome of the Rock', they are not inside are they ??
