Biden’s failure to secure an Israel-Hamas ceasefire is good news for the entire world: here’s why
The good news trickled out quietly, and despite the huge significance, is not getting the attention it deserves.
The White House now believes it won’t get a cease-fire deal in Gaza before Joe Biden leaves office.
“No deal is imminent,” a US official told The Wall Street Journal.
“I’m not sure it ever gets done.”
Hold the tears — cue the celebrations.
No deal is the best deal available.
Israel and the entire civilized world are saved from the awful consequences of an American bid to appease evil in the name of peace.
And politics.
For months, Biden and Kamala Harris have tried to force Israel to accept fatally flawed terms with Hamas in Gaza and, by extension, Hezbollah in Lebanon.
The Democrats are motivated by fear that anti-Israel voters in the upper Midwest, especially Muslim Americans in Michigan, will abandon the party.
The result has been a relentless pressure campaign against Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, complete with attempts to undermine him politically at home and hamper Israel’s military by withholding munitions.
Recall that Secretary of State Antony Blinken sat in on cabinet meetings to dictate which targets Israel could attack.
The disgraceful effort, which included following the same playbook as anti-Israel mobs at the United Nations, prolonged the war and gave Hamas incentives to hold out for better deals.
IDF kills the two terrorists who held the six hostages that were killed in the tunnel in Rafah.
Israeli forces have killed the two terrorists believed to be responsible for the recent murder of six hostages in a tunnel in the southern Gaza Strip.The hostages – Hersh Goldberg-Polin, Eden Yerushalmi, Ori Danino, Alex Lobanov, Carmel Gat, and Almog Sarusi – were killed in the tunnel before the terrorists were now located and neutralized.
In a press conference, Hagari detailed the operation, explaining that Israeli forces from the 162nd Division encountered the terrorists a day after the murders. “A day after the murder of the hostages, forces with the 162nd Division identified two terrorists emerging from a nearby tunnel in the Tel Sultan area, and killed them in an exchange of fire,” Hagari said.
Following the clash, Israeli forces conducted a thorough investigation of the tunnel and the equipment found with the terrorists. “After we investigated the findings from the tunnel and equipment from the terrorists, we found DNA and several items that belonged to the terrorists that we killed,” Hagari confirmed.
Hagari also said that evidence indicates the two terrorists were present in the tunnel at the time of the murders. “We are checking their involvement in the murder,” he added, saying that the investigation is ongoing to confirm their direct role in the killings.

First Lady Jill Biden has sparked outrage after she spoke at the first White House cabinet meeting in a year.
President Joe Biden convened his Cabinet on Friday for the first time since last October and was joined by the First Lady who spoke about women's health research.
In explaining her presence at the session, Biden said: 'First Ladies have attended these meetings in the past for specific reasons.
'This is the first time Jill has joined us, and it underscores the importance of the issue she's about to address', before handing over to her he added; 'It's all yours, kid'.
According to The New York Post, Biden spent much of his two minute intro talking about the first lady, who went on to speak for four and half minutes.
The outlet drew a comparison between the First Lady and Edith Wilson, who kept tight control over President Woodrow Wilson after he suffered a stroke.
This comparison was referenced online by Greg Price, who added: 'She's literally Edith Wilson except right out in the open in a 24/7 news cycle and nobody in the media cares.'
Political commentator also posted about the First Lady kicking off the meeting, posting: 'Jill Biden is kicking off the first cabinet meeting the White House has had in almost a year and we’re expected to act like this is normal.'
Steve Cortes, a previous adviser to former President Donald Trump, described Biden as looking 'visibly exhausted'.
Sorry, AOC: Israel's Precision Attack Against Hezbollah Was Humane
This week, in a scene one would expect from a Hollywood thriller, thousands of pagers and walkie talkies exploded across Lebanon and the Middle East, killing, maiming, or severely injuring thousands of Hezbollah terrorists.
Although the attacks were immediately attributed to Israel, the Jewish state has so far not claimed responsibility. In the event that Israel did carry out the operation, it could only be understood as the most audacious and unprecedented counter-terrorism precision attack in military history, and one that was entirely justified and in full accordance with international law.
The attack not only disrupted Hezbollah's terrorist capabilities and infrastructure; it re-established Israeli deterrence and leveled psychological trauma on the entire terror organization, from its leader Hassan Nasrallah, to the most junior of Hezbollah foot soldiers, who now know that no-one is safe, and every terrorist can be reached at any time.
Lest you be swayed by the false and malicious narratives of those trying to defend Hezbollah or blame the Jewish state, some necessary context is in order.
First, Hezbollah is a Lebanese-based jihadist terrorist organization and a standing army that is funded, supplied by, and serves entirely at the behest of the Islamic Republic of Iran.
Like Hamas, Hezbollah also has genocidal intentions to annihilate Israel and kill all the Jews, intentions which they have made repeatedly clear and have continuously sought to act on. Hezbollah Secretary-General Hassan Nasrallah has said that that the entire Middle East will not rest until the "cancerous gland" that is Israel is removed, and on October 8 last year, a day after the Hamas massacre, Hezbollah formally joined the war in the wistful hope that they might help eradicate the Jewish state.

Meet the Nazi who hid in plain sight in suburban Chicago for nearly 30 years
On Oct. 26, 1957, Reinhold Kulle and his family departed on the MS Italia from Cuxhaven, Germany, destined for a new life in America.
But as Michael Soffer reveals in “Our Nazi: An American Suburb’s Encounter with Evil” (University of Chicago Press), Kulle carried a dark secret.
Throughout World War II, Kulle had not only been a member of the Nazi’s Waffen-SS, but had worked at Gross-Rosen concentration camp where 40,000 Jews died.
Kulle was one of around 10,000 Nazis who entered the US after the war and, like others, blended into his community, his neighbors oblivious to his past.
Born in 1921, Kulle was a member of the Hitler Youth before volunteering for the combat wing of the Waffen-SS in 1940.
“Other boys in the Hitler Youth were wary of joining the SS, alarmed at the prospect of committing atrocities,” writes Soffer.
“Kulle was undeterred.”
Having joined the army, Kulle was injured fighting the Russians and was transferred to Gross-Rosen in his native Silesia, excusing him from frontline action.
