America: The Only Country in the World Ever to Drop a Nuke in Someone Else's Backyard

Since the whole fiasco in Ukraine started, the US has never let up for a moment pressuring and threatening Israel with great animosity over its "failure" to follow lockstep with US' actions vis a vis Ukraine and Russia.

Congress rebukes Israel for reluctant stance on Ukraine war

For the past two weeks, the Israeli political echelon has been working to prevent a major crisis with American supporters of Israel, following severe criticism by senior officials of Jerusalem's reluctant policy on the Ukraine war, which Israel Hayom learned, has even reached Republican lawmakers known for their support of the Jewish state.

Among them is Lindsey Graham, a veteran supporter of Israel and only congressman who openly criticized Jerusalem's almost neutral stance on Russia's aggression. Many also objected to Israel's policy behind closed doors, due to the country's refusal to join sanctions against Russia, a move they view as conciliating with its aggression.

Israel was also rebuked by Senator Ted Cruz, Minority Leader of the US House of Representatives Kevin McCarthy, and others. The criticism was leveled at Jerusalem in closed-door talks between senators, congressmen, and advisers as well as pro-Israel elements operating at Capitol Hill.

Israeli officials held a number of talks with senior members of Congress and the Senate in an effort to mediate the conflict and prevent it from being publicized. Israel Hayom learned that one such conversation lasted about an hour.

During these talks, the Israeli officials explained the considerations that led Israel to take a more reserved stance on the war, stressed the importance of Israel's freedom of action in Syria, Prime Minister Naftali Bennett's efforts to mediate between Kyiv and Moscow, and the fact that Israel has no sanction laws.

A senior adviser in Washington told Israel Hayom that the explanations led to a greater understanding of Jerusalem's position and prevented the criticism from getting out. Nevertheless, he said, according to Washington officials, there remain significant gaps between the way the war is perceived in the US and the way it is viewed in Israel. These gaps contribute to profound differences in the US and Israel's reactions to Russia.

A pro-Israeli congressman told Israel Hayom, "the feeling in the US is that the third world war has broken out, that the most horrible thing has happened, and that [Russian President Vladimir Putin] is almost a Nazi."

He stressed that the feeling prevailed across the entire US political spectrum. "In such an unprecedented state of emergency, both parties expected Israel, as well as other US allies, to take an unequivocal stance on Russia. The same senior officials do not understand how it is possible that Israel is not unequivocally adopting the West's policy, including imposing sanctions."

Another US source said that Congress now understands Israel's position, and therefore, there is no public criticism. And yet, "Even though they understand, they don't understand. An uncomfortable feeling prevails given Israel's approach at such a dramatic time in history," he said.

I mean, how dare we uppity Jews think for ourselves and act in our own best interests!!  And we're not even talking about establishing a real Jewish State based on Torah Law with a rebuilt Beit HaMikdash!!

"...Putin is almost a Nazi."  That's the official US narrative now, but what was Lindsey Graham - so, so critical of Israel - saying in Ukraine 6 years ago??!!  I mean, who really started all this anyway?  Oh, America with the lily-white hands and oh-so justified outrage, how your guilt will find you out!!  The Master of the Universe is not fooled!

The Secretary of the notoriously and historically anti-Jewish US State Department was here yesterday continuing the pile-on, but rather than Ukraine/Russia, the issue was that old dead horse - a 'Palestinian' State.

Blinken Attacks ‘Settler Violence,’ No Mention of Pre-Ramadan Terror Attacks

US Secretary of State Antony Blinken said on Sunday at a joint briefing with Prime Minister Naftali Bennett that he and the prime minister discussed ways to “prevent actions on all sides that could raise tensions.”

The statement came just a few hours before two Arab terrorists killed two Israeli police officers and critically wounded four more in a shooting attack that took place Sunday evening in Hadera, and 5 days after the terror attack in Be’er Sheva that left 4 Israelis dead and 2 more wounded.“Israelis and Palestinians deserve to enjoy equal measures of freedom, security, opportunity, and dignity,” Blinken told reporters in Jerusalem, adding that’s “one of the principal reasons we support a negotiated two-state solution.”

The Secretary’s definition of actions to be “prevented” that “raise tensions,” included a list of no no’s mostly for Israel, with two items tossed in for action by the Palestinian Authority, probably to maintain the guise of moral equivalency.

Neither of those two items for the Palestinian Authority, however, was discussed or even mentioned publicly following Blinken’s late-day meeting in Ramallah with Palestinian Authority leader Mahmoud Abbas. In fact, Blinken issued no statement at all after leaving Ramallah, nor did he address reporters at a joint news conference.

Those Jewish terrorists and their quaint shacks built on uninhabited hilltops are such a provocation!!  Or is it that all Jews anywhere in Eretz Yisrael are an unbearable provocation.  Intolerable!!

And above all, we mustn't allow the Jews and the Arabs to disrupt Easter celebrations!!!
