Biden Eyes Israel Critic as White House Press Sec

Incoming president Joe Biden is reportedly close to selecting a vocal Israel critic to serve as his White House press secretary.

Of course he is. This will be the most anti-Israel, and possibly antisemitic, administration in history, and is exactly why a record number of Jews voted against Biden. And don’t kid yourself: this isn’t merely a political dispute, in virtually all of the cases it is merely antisemitism. How do I know that? Because all of these people support the BDS movement and/or hold Israel to standards that they don’t apply to other nations.

Report: UAE-Israel deal to be phased to block Israel from applying sovereignty before 2024

The UAE deal is great. But, in my opinion, it would have happened even if Netanyahu has the guts to apply sovereignty. UAE, Bahrain and the other Arab countries need Israel as a economic ally. They would have accepted sovereignty for economic agreements, now Israel has given up its biggest bargaining tool. Netanyahu is weak on the issue of Judea and Samaria.
