Biden-Harris Admin Seeks To Restrain Israel From Responding After Hezbollah Attack Kills 12 Children | Eastern North Carolina Now

    The Biden-Harris administration is seeking to severely limit Israel's retaliatory response toward Hezbollah after the Iranian-backed Islamic terrorist group killed 12 children on Saturday in northern Israel.

    The children were killed after Hezbollah fired dozens of rockets on Majdal Shams, a small village in the Golan Heights, striking a soccer field and wounding an additional 40 people. Israel has already authorized a retaliatory strike against Hezbollah for the attack.

    After the shocking attack, the Biden-Harris administration has sought to retrain Israel because its response could spark an all-out war with Hezbollah, which operates out of southern Lebanon.

    Secretary of State Antony Blinken said the administration does not "want to see the conflict escalate. We don't want to see it spread."

    His remarks come after Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY) said on Sunday that he wants to see Israel "de-escalate."

    The Biden-Harris administration does not want war to erupt between Israel and Hezbollah because the risk that the U.S. gets drawn into the war is high. The administration has already lost a lot of support from Democrat voters over how it has responded to Israel's war against Hamas.

    Israeli Foreign Minister Israel Katz said immediately after the attack that it "crossed all red lines, and the response will be in accordance."

    "We are approaching the moment of an all-out war against Hezbollah and Lebanon," he said.

    Hezbollah is illegally occupying a large section of southern Lebanon along the country's border with Israel, violating U.N. Resolution 1701.

    In a separate statement, Katz called Hezbollah Secretary-General Hassan Nasrallah "a child murderer acting on behalf of Iran to spread terror in the region."

    He said that it was time to put an end to Hezbollah before "it's too late."

    Hezbollah has fired thousands of missiles, rockets, and suicide drones into Israel following Hamas' October 7 attack. For the most part, the projectiles have not overwhelmed Israel's air defenses, and Israel has responded with strikes against key Hezbollah commanders.


    However, the attack on Saturday was the deadliest attack that Israel has faced since October 7, thus increasing the scale of the response that Israel is likely to launch.

    Hundreds of thousands of Israelis have also been displaced from their homes in northern Israel for over nine months due to the threat posed by Hezbollah.

26 days after the October 7th Terror attacks on Israel, where over 1400 Jewish men, women and children were gruesomely murdered, and hundreds more made hostage: Should the Biden /Harris administration finally state that the administration's primary Middle East negotiating partner, Iran, is behind the funding and strategy of the aggressors, the Hamas Terrorists, or continue to take the more moderate position of "Don't," which is clearly not working?

  Yes, name Iran as the funding /strategy culprit, and begin to enforce the President Trump era sanctions to END Iran's ability to prosecute this war against Israel and the United States.

  No, Iran is a valuable partner in the motives of the Biden / Harris administration, and must not be named as the culprit and our enemy.

  I have larger concerns just to survive in this economy.

In the minds of many, since January 20, 2021, the World has become far less safe in every theater of conflict, beginning with the attack of Israel by Iran /Hamas, so the question becomes: What caused this Worldwide calamity of extreme geopolitical dysfunction, and what will correct it?

  Joe Biden is the cause of this frightening Worldwide situation, and it will end when a Republican is elected president.

  This delayed Worldwide dysfunction and constant conflict is all Donald Trump's fault, as it is with everything that occurs going forward, and long before the man ever became the 45th president..

  Joe Biden is the "root cause" of this frightening Worldwide situation, and it will end when former President Donald John Trump is elected president.

  In the imitable words of Alfred E. Newman: "What, me worry?"
