With the left in Israel blaming Prime Minister Netanyahu for Hamas murdering six young Jews, it pays to find out who really should be blamed.
While the majority of the blame should obviously be placed on Hamas and anything else is morally reprehensible -the Biden White House urged Israel to refrain from invading Rafah for months. Yes, there was three months that the IDF was literally stalled from going into Rafah.
It is important to remind everyone that many of the hostages were taken to Rafah early on. This is where the six were executed. Prime Minister Netanyahu was prepared to go into Rafah already in March, however Biden and Harris threatened Israel that if they would go into Rafah, the USA would freeze weapons transfers to the Jewish State.
Such a threat in the middle of the war, especially with war between Hezbollah potentially expanding, would be devastating. So Bibi balked until he could no longer wait and on May 6th the IDF invaded Rafah with minimal casualties to Gazan “civilians”. The lack of any meaningful civilian deaths was the opposite result of that which President Biden and Kamala Harris had warned. After all, Harris’ now famous line about warning Israel not to go into Rafah, because she had “studied the maps,” has been played over and over again.
Biden wants to claim that it is Bibi who has not “done enough” to free the hostages. However, the Biden and Harris White House were the ones that prevented Israel from sending the IDF into Rafah months earlier - months that could have seen the IDF actually find the six hostages that were executed and rather than bring them home dead - bring them home alive.
The only way to defeat evil is to destroy it - not negotiate with it. By Biden and Harris threatening Israel for months - it is they who partnered with Israel’s enemies and it is they who have blood on their hands.
