Ophir Falk of the Jerusalem Post has recently brought the whole Zionist house down by writing an article in the Jerusalem Post entitled, “Despite Trump’s behavior we Israelis must remember who had our back.” Falk declares:
“It is not popular to thank or praise President Trump today. But now, perhaps more than ever, is the time to put things in perspective and give credit where credit is due. Gratitude is most genuine when it’s least popular…
“Despite Trump’s unpresidential behavior, we, as Israelis, have a lot to be grateful for. The Jewish people, especially those living in the Jewish state, should not forget who had our back.
“President Trump recognized the obvious: Jerusalem is Israel’s eternal capital. He accepted that the Golan Heights are an integral sovereign part of Israel and squashed Hillary Clinton’s once surreal call that the strategic and biblical land be given to Assad. Trump recognized the legitimacy of Jewish settlements in Judea and Samaria and engineered the Abraham Accords, in which four important and influential Arab nations normalized peaceful relations with Israel.”[1]
What Falk ends up saying here is that when it comes to foreign policy, Trump was working for Israel through and through. Like Benjamin Netanyahu, Falk invariably ends up saying that stealing lands from the Palestinians will bring peace to the Middle East:
“Those are historic achievements that not only pave the way for wider peace and prosperity in the region but help isolate the tyrants in Tehran. Indeed, Trump pulled America out of president Obama’s dangerous nuclear deal with Iran and alienated its terrorist regime.
“It would be utter blindness for President-elect Biden to go back to appeasing Iran, but if he chooses to do so, the coalition formed by the Abraham Accords can cooperate and will be able to competently confront that challenge. For all that, and more, President Trump deserves our gratitude.”[2]
Falk has indirectly made a couple of points here: 1) peace can only come when Israel achieves its goal by isolating the Palestinians; 2) Iran is an enemy of Israel, and that tyrant needs to be dealt with; 3) Trump destroyed the peace deal policy which the Obama administration rehabilitated; 4) President-elect Joe Biden will be heading butts with Israel if he happens to bring back the nuclear peace deal. The conclusion? A peace deal with the Iranians is a threat to the Israeli regime.
As I pointed out in the last article. Whether you support Joe Biden or not, we all have to come to the realization that a peace deal with Iran is not a threat to the United States, to Israel, or any country on the planet. The only regime which deludes itself into thinking that the Iranians are a threat is the Israeli regime, headed by a diabolical figure whose name is none other than Benjamin Netanyahu. The same regime has been perpetuating double standards since the beginning of time because it has hundreds of nuclear warheads down its basement.[3]
You simply can’t “make America great again” while you are sleeping with the Israeli regime. It just doesn’t work!

Iran is more a thorn in their side per Greater Israel and the Palestinians issue, not because they are a threat to Israel proper. As for the Arab states that joined the Trump effort to normalize with Israel…how will they act if Biden does revive the JCPOA? Just what will Israel do, start a war on their own? Can’t see those Arab sell outs wanting to engage Iran without US support. But I can’t see Biden actually abandoning them, after all, he’s part of the club too…just not as rabid as Trump. Hell, no one is.
How is Iran a threat to Israel proper ? Unless you mean “Israel proper” is the entire Middle East including Gaza and West Bank, I’m confused, please explain.
Newt, Iran is a threat to “Israel proper” because Israel has no real borders except “from the Nile to the Euphrates” as the Torah says. Every line in the sand that the Ashkenazim draw is only temporary.

“Our race is the Master Race. We are divine gods on this planet. We are as
different from the inferior races as they are from insects. In fact,
compared to our race, other races are beasts and animals, cattle at best.
Other races are considered as human excrement. Our destiny is to rule over
the inferior races. Our earthly kingdom will be ruled by our leader with a
rod of iron. The masses will lick our feet and serve us as our slaves.” –
Israeli prime Minister Menachem Begin in a speech to the Knesset [Israeli
Parliament] quoted by Amnon Kapeliouk, “Begin and the Beasts,” New
Statesman, June 25, 1982
Don’t leave out the so-called Christian Zionists, Sarge. These true-believers are much of Trump’s rock-solid base. He’s conned them into believing that he’s the “chosen one” who has brought the Ashkenazim back to Jerusalem. He’s their ticket to the Rapture who will bring on the Apocalypse and the return of their warrior messiah who will vanquish all the unbelievers and evildoers. That accounts for the religious fervor of the Trumpsters who stormed the Capitol on 1/6. He said he’d lead them to overturn the election results, when in fact he left them to commit felony murder on their own, all captured on video for the whole world to see.
American exceptionalism is not a new phenomenon, Jonas. Europeans came to this continent thinking they were the “chosen ones” who God had designated to displace, rape, and pillage the indigenous just like what the Ashkenazim are now doing in Palestine. Manifest Destiny equals Zionism equals racism.
It will be interesting to see how long Biden works before succumbing to Israeli firsters. Should Israel become more than is an existential threat to the world affairs through US and Likud, some territory larger nations should consider other lands prepared like Birobidzhan earlier in history. War with Iran is as bad as global pandemic if not worse, you don’t have to be a Mossad/IDF genius to figure that out, it simply cannot end good for Israel, no matter who is US or Russian president.
There are early conditions in place with the new administration which will immediately effect this Israeli wet dream war with Iran that will impact the rest of the Biden administration and his wanting to focus on domestic issues and not only making Israel great again like Trump did throughout all his term but domestically only destroy and cancel the US safety nets.
First is the fact that Iran has reiterated the fact that they will start with Biden not where Obama left the relationship in 2016 but where the 2015 agreement was to take them after signing. If any of the new or old Israeli sanctions are still lingering after his first month, there will be an impasse a dead end. And Rouhani’s term coming up soon, Biden has little time.
Secondly Israel knowing this dead end could be reached and lead to a war will do their most at the very start of the Biden’s administration to resist any cooperation which will expose them and Pompeo early on as what they always were the party of no. Biden will have to takes the gloves off for the US relationship with Iran and China.
Third, this domestic terrorism of Trump and his cronies in the Congress are blended with the military complex which has its tentacles on domestic issues such as the lack of budgets to fix the next few years’s problems of health and economic well being of the country. A major military budget cutback is needed and it will only bring in the Pompeos et al to the forefront and expose them as the main problem to fix the US.
Pompeo is already labeled as the worst sec of state, and it will become the first obstacle to repair the country.
All of these issues will be determined early on during the Biden’s administration and set the trajectory.
Sorry for the typo “which will immediately effect this Israeli” should be “affect.”
