Biden and Harris on the Two-State Solution Bandwagon Still; and Carolyn Glick Exposing Their Goal

 Nadene Goldfoot                                                

Biden and Harris, this is what Israelis have been facing for years;  being hit by Katusha rockets.  Where was everybody who should have stopped the terrorists after UN Oslo Accord meetings saying this was not allowed ?The Katyusha (Russian: ) is a type of rocket artillery first built and fielded by the Soviet Union in World War II. Chinese now build them as well as other places.  The 1948 style has been replaced by a 2024 upgrade.  

Harris was the topic on Carolyn Glick's TV show today as not wanting any Palestinians moved out of Gaza.  She had called for an end to war in Gaza and NO ISRAELI OCCUPATION !  She and Biden want the PA to take over Gaza.  That's their plan.   U.S. Democratic presidential candidate Kamala Harris called on Tuesday for an end to the Israel-Gaza war and said that Israel must not reoccupy the Palestinian enclave once the nearly year-old conflict comes to an end. Speaking in Philadelphia to the National Association of Black Journalists, she called for a ceasefire between Israel and Palestinian Hamas militants, a two-state solution and Middle East stability in a way that does not empower Iran.  Doesn't she understand that this is Israel's goal as well? Israel needs stability and cannot get it with Hamas at large.  Iran is empowered by all their lackies bowing and gravelling at Iran's feet.  

The PA failed to be able to do this after Israel moved out:  lock, stock and barrel, and Hamas took over at the will of the people.  Where have you two been?  What was dreamed of in 2004 is no longer under the same conditions;  Hamas has become stronger!  

Hamas, who had taken over Gaza with the help of President Obama's pull, has a charter stating their goal is to destroy Israel and take it over.  They have been attacking Israel ever since Israelis moved out of Gaza for the good of the Palestinian population.  The disengagement plan was implemented in August 2005 and completed in September 2005. Israelis moved out completely, leaving businesses for the Palestinians to take over.  They had no intention to become a peaceful state sharing a border line with Israel.  Now they were just that much closer for their rockets, mortars, missiles and people to reach.  They built tunnels as well.  

                                                                                                                                                           

No one came to the aid of Israel when the Palestinians attacked. Sderot lies 1 kilometre (0.62 mi) from the Gaza Strip and the town of Beit Hanoun.  Sderot, a city on the border, was attacked all the time.  Sderot is located less than a mile from Gaza (the closest point is 840 m (2,760 ft)), and is notable for having been a major target of Qassam rocket attacks from the Gaza Strip. Between 2001 and 2008, rocket attacks on the city killed 13 people, wounded dozens, caused millions of dollars in damage and profoundly disrupted daily life.   Although rocket fire subsided after the Gaza War (2008–09), the city has come under rocket attack on occasion since that time.  Sderot was founded in 1951 as a transit camp for Israeli immigrants, primarily from Kurdistan and Iran.  You see, when Israel was re-born again in 1948, Jews were thrown out of their Middle-Eastern homes.  Of course, they made a bee-line for Israel.  That's what it was intended for; a Jewish Homeland.  We've been thrown out of so many countries at different periods starting with our own homeland of Judah, the last survivor of Israel of the 12 tribes.  

                                                                    

So was Ashkelon which contained the main hospital of the region who had to move underground in order to continue serving the wounded and ill.  Ashkelon is a coastal city in the Southern District of Israel on the Mediterranean coast, 50 kilometres (30 mi) south of Tel Aviv, and 13 kilometres (8 mi) north of the border with the Gaza Strip.  Most of the founding members of Hamas were born in Mandatory Palestine, outside of the Gaza strip, or have parents who were. Many of them were from villages that were in the vicinity of present-day Ashkelon, including most of the party's leaders:

Evidently our US government still doesn't understand the situation. Palestinian "citizens" are the children of Palestinian Hamas or Fatah-minded parents, who were either actively causing terrorism or complied with their bidding, and this goes back generations;  at least to the 1920s when Jews were being attacked by Arabs.  

Palestinians have Hamas weapons in their homes, under their homes in tunnels, stored in schools, hospitals, mosques, businesses, you name it.  They aid and abet the terrorism going on practiced by Hamas because they are all for the cause, and the younger become the active fighters.  UNRWA of the UN is a major aid and abetting organization that favors the Palestinians in a big way.  A few workers there personally have been involved with terroristic work.  

Egyptian Border:  The only way to provide humanitarian assistance to the people of Gaza without assisting Hamas is to provide them with the same right afforded to those in war zones worldwide: The right to leave the war zone for third countries. From the outset of the war, the Biden administration has strongly opposed Israel’s efforts to persuade the Egyptian government to permit the people of Gaza to leave the area through the Rafah border crossing. In a speech last month in Tel Aviv, Secretary of State Antony Blinken reasserted U.S. opposition to permitting Gazans to leave the area.  “The United States unequivocally rejects any proposals advocating for the resettlement of Palestinians outside of Gaza,” he exhorted.  The Nazis used this  against Jews in 1939 when my Uncle Werner got out, one of the last to do so.  Then the door closed on Jews, keeping them in Germany to board trains for the gassing.  Of course, the problem Jews also had was finding a country allowing them in !  Werner still had the USA in 1939.

USA and Israel: Divided Political Party Contenders

When they first met, Biden was a junior senator in his early 40s; Netanyahu was a fledgling diplomat nearly a decade younger. Now with their first phone call expected imminently, the two must decide how their relationship will evolve, at the height of their careers and the peak of their powers.                                                           

Right now Israel is being divided between Labor/Kadima (breakaway party of Labor, also on left, a very liberal political party, and Likud, which Netanyahu has belonged.  Olmert, former PM and Kadima member is the spokesman interviewed on CNN.  It's so much like the USA's division.                                   Past experience

 Countdown to the debate: Vice President Kamala Harris(of the LEFT party) and former President Donald Trump (of the RIGHT party )  are gearing up for Tuesday’s presidential debate. A CNN Poll of Polls finds a tight race with no clear leader ahead of the televised showdown.
In July, Trump’s voters were far more likely than Biden’s voters to characterize their support for their candidate as “strong” (63% vs. 43%). But that gap is no longer present in the Harris-Trump matchup.
Chart shows ‘Strong’ support for Harris is now on par with Trump’s and is much higher than Biden’s was in July

Today, 62% of Harris voters say they strongly support her, while about a third (32%) say they moderately support her. Trump’s voters are just about as likely to say they strongly back him today as they were in July (64% today, 63% then).

Kennedy’s voters make up a smaller share of voters today than a month ago – and just 18% of his voters say they strongly support him, similar to the 15% who said the same in July.


  • Past experience
    Harris is the current vice president and the highest-ranking female political official in US history. She previously served as a US senator, California attorney general and the San Francisco district attorney.
    Key policy issues
    Harris’ initial campaign speeches offer some insights into her priorities, though she’s mainly voiced general talking points and not more nuanced plans. Like Biden, she intends to contrast her vision for America with Trump’s. She said the path forward will focus on lifting up working and middle-class Americans,enabling them to join unions, retire with dignity,live without the fear of gun violence and obtain affordable health care.

    asperience
  • Trump graduated from the University of Pennsylvania with a bachelor’s degree in economics. Before launching his successful 2016 presidential bid, Trump was a real estate developer, businessman and a reality television star as host of “The Apprentice.”
    Key policy issues
    If he wins another term, Trump has said he would overhaul key factions of the federal government and slash social safety net programs. He has also vowed retribution against his political opponents and has said he would appoint a special prosecutor to “go after” Biden and his family.
