After watching a program I caught on Youtube from Jewish News Syndicate (jns) of his comments about Biden's speech when he went to Israel recently, I decided that David M. Friedman was my solemate in thinking. Finally, I've found the man who agrees with me that now is not the time for creating a Palestine right next door to Israel! The catch is that he's even younger than my son and daughter, but that's okay, this is a solemate in thinking, that's all. He had commented,
"Can you imagine what a Palestine would be like? I thought, "The Palestinian Arabs already consider all of Israel to be Palestine". Then David mentioned all the things that they stood for, mainly rights Israel and the USA have that they wouldn't allow. They've already announced that their Palestine would have no Jews in it, not that any would want to live there. Since Hamas runs Gaza, Abbas would have a rough time. They've argued ever since they teemed up once.
David Melech Friedman (born August 8, 1958) is an American bankruptcy lawyer and the former United States Ambassador to Israel. He joined the law firm Kasowitz, Benson, Torres & Friedman (then known as Kasowitz, Hoff, Benson & Torres) in 1994, where he met and represented Donald Trump, then chairman and president of The Trump Organization.
He was an advisor to Trump during his successful presidential campaign. In December 2016, President-elect Trump's transition team announced that Friedman was Trump's nominee for ambassador. He was narrowly confirmed by the Senate, officially sworn in by Vice President Mike Pence on March 29 and presented his credentials on May 15.
So now I see that the good deeds that Trump did for Israel were initiated not only by his son-in-law, Jerad Kushner, but also by David M. Friedman as well, along with Jason Dov Greenblatt, special envoy, an American lawyer. He was the executive vice president and chief legal officer to Donald Trump and The Trump Organization, and another advisor on Israel.. Trump issued a "Presidential Proclamation recognizing Jerusalem as the Capital of the State of Israel and relocating the United States Embassy to Israel to Jerusalem.
David graduated from Hebrew Academy of Nassau County (HANC) high school in 1974, and earned his B.A. degree in anthropology from Columbia University, graduating in 1978, and his J.D. degree from New York University School of Law, graduating in 1981. He has been a member of the New York State Bar Association since 1982.
David has pointed out America's biblical roots as well.
(April 20, 2022 / JNS) The following is an abridged version of the Distinguished Rennert Lecture, delivered on April 19 by Ambassador David Friedman upon receipt of the Guardian of Zion Award from Bar-Ilan University’s Ingeborg Rennert Center for Jerusalem Studies.
"One of the most common forms of anti-Semitism in America is the accusation that Jews have dual loyalty, that they support Israel more than America. In the four years that I was ambassador to Israel, I was on the receiving end of that terrible canard more than a few times—oddly enough, often by groups of Jewish Americans". "The notion that essential human rights came from God and not man was a revolutionary concept. It made those rights permanent, undeniable, non-negotiable and immune from the vagaries of politics"."How did our founding fathers know which rights God considered unalienable? Our founders knew, because they all read the Bible. There can be no question that the American Republic was sculpted from the lessons of the Bible."
Friedman also brought up U.S. involvement in the Palestinian government, citing Biden’s desire to fund Palestinian hospitals.“The reality is money is fungible,” Friedman explained. “If they throw it at a hospital, that’s money the Palestinian Authority can spend on someplace else. In most cases, paying terrorists. So it’s not as innocuous as people think.”
David's even tougher than I am. When asked about his comments on J Street at the Saban Forum in early December, Friedman had stood by his statements, saying that J Street supporters were "not Jewish, and they're not pro-Israel." I agree with him in that J Street is not pro-Israel and have said this for a long time. The sad thing is that the majority are Jewish, but Jewish seemingly without any education or knowledge about their Jewish history. That's why I and others do research and write. Of course, my readers are the Choir and those that need the education will not read. David has the education coming from an educated family. He's trying to help spread that education in his meaningful ways.
