If the bad guys notice that Biden's balls are in Rashida Talib's back pocket, they will conclude that it is safe to pummel Israel. They may be right.
People were offended because President Trump spoke and tweeted his opinion. They were so offended that they voted with their Political Correctness feelings in what was already a rigged election. Anti-Trump and Never-Trumper's tossed out reason and railed against Trump's common sense management of the country. So, we end up with a weak Politically Correct President that other countries don't fear. President Trump may have been gruff and outspoken, but if he was still in office I don't believe this attack on Israel would have happened. Border, Energy, Unemployment, law and order and the Constitution have all been under attack by the Biden administration. Over 50 Executive Orders? That is a dictatorship not the Will of the People.
