Israel-Hating Official Directs U.S. Intelligence
There is an old adage in Washington: "Personnel is policy." The meaning is obvious enough: The people appointed to top positions make policy through their daily actions, and those actions and policies are often influenced by their own agendas, biases, and ideologies.
The Biden administration's shocking betrayal of Israel is raising serious concerns about Maher Bitar, the White House Coordinator for Intelligence and Defense Policy.
That post is almost always filled by a senior CIA officer. All intelligence from all agencies sent to the White House goes through Bitar's office. This left-wing extremist decides what goes on to Biden, who is losing mental acuity by the hour.
For years, Bitar was deeply involved in anti-Israel, anti-Semitic, and pro-Palestinian activism. He was a leader of Students for Justice in Palestine before he launched his Washington, D.C., career. Students for Justice in Palestine is a seriously compromised organization that is linked to Hamas.
If Bitar was at Berkeley or Columbia today, he would be lowering the American flag and replacing it with the Palestinian flag or the banner of Hamas.
In 2006, he led a seminar on how to turn churches against Israel. In 2007, he assisted with an event featuring Joseph Massad, a radical professor who praised the October 7th massacre as "awesome" and "a stunning victory."
He would later go on to work for UNRWA, a corrupt U.N. agency that is riddled with Hamas sympathizers and terrorists.
Before his White House assignment, Bitar was a top aide to Rep. Adam Schiff on the House Intelligence Committee, and played a major role in the first impeachment of Donald Trump.
Conservative legal experts are constantly under attack by progressives. They are being bankrupted and trying to stay out of jail. In contrast, the left takes their radicals and promotes them to top positions to make policy. They are playing hardball, while many on our side are playing checkers.
The Fallout Continues
The stunning news that Joe Biden has imposed an arms embargo against Israel continues to reverberate all over Washington, D.C., and Jerusalem.
Rep. Cory Mills (R-FL) announced that he is drafting articles of impeachment against Biden based on the precedent Nancy Pelosi established in her war on Trump.
Biden is withholding military assistance, approved by Congress and that he signed into law, for Israel because he is afraid that he will lose the election if Israel finishes off Hamas. That is exactly what Pelosi accused Donald Trump of doing with aid to Ukraine.
Buckle up, congressman! You will soon be denounced for being "counterproductive" and "dividing the country."
Some unnamed people in the White House are attempting to spin the weapons embargo by saying the media is misrepresenting the policy. They are scrambling for cover because they are now hearing from some very important Jewish supporters, and they aren't wishing the White House a happy Passover.
Meanwhile, I spoke with a source in Israel who is well-connected with the Israeli government about Biden's decision to cut off aid to Israel. I asked him, "What are you going to do?"
He replied, "Gary, we will fight these death-worshipping animals in Hamas if we have to do it with our bare hands."
A Random Observation
Joe Biden removed sanctions on the Houthi terrorists.
He removed sanctions on Qatar, which supports Hamas, and Lebanon, which supports Hezbollah.
He removed sanctions on the terrorist Iranian regime.
He removed sanctions against the Marxist Venezuelan regime.
But he is now imposing sanctions on our democratic ally, Israel.
Ponder that for a moment.
The American Taliban
The Islamic supremacists of the Taliban are known for destroying monuments. Well, our "American Taliban," who also share some religious beliefs with the Taliban," also destroy monuments.
One of them defaced a monument to our soldiers who fought in World War I. He was arrested yesterday. He's 16 years old. Reports this morning indicate that he is still in jail and the full force of the law will be brought down on his head. Good! But I'll believe it when I see it.
But it got me wondering: If there was another attack like 9/11 on New York City, how many people would run into the streets and celebrate like they do in Gaza? If 1,000 Jews were slaughtered in New York City, I wouldn't be surprised if Professor Massad praised the attack as an "awesome victory."
The barbarians are inside our gates.
