Good morning, kids. It’s good to be back in the blue room! No, you have not taken leave of your senses. It is indeed me, your personal envoy of gloom, doom, destruction, madness, meshugas and snark in the flesh, more or less. I’ll give you a personal update at the end of the editorial but for now, let’s get cracking.
Obviously, the big story is Iran’s mass aerial attack on Israel yesterday via drones and missiles. By all accounts, at least from a tactical standpoint, The IDF’s technological advantage clearly won the day as none of the missiles hit any targets within Israel proper nor caused any destruction or mass casualties. Ironically, the only know casualty was a little Bedouin girl who was struck and killed by debris from the intercepted Iranian missile and/or an Israeli Iron Dome anti-missile missile. No doubt, this too will be blamed on the Jews for the crime against humanity of defending themselves. As Stalin might say, and as his acolytes and cheerleaders most certainly are, the death of one Muslim is a tragedy, but the mass rape, torture and slaughter of 1,200 Jews is merely a statistic.
While we’re in the mood to paraphrase famous tyrants and vintage cultural touchstones, that is butcher them, the old Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups commercial comes to mind; “Hey, you got your incompetence in my ideology!” “And you got your ideology in my incompetence!” “You know, they’re great together!”
On Saturday, Iran initiated a barrage of drones and ballistic missiles at Israel. Thankfully, most of them were successfully intercepted and caused minimal damage. Of course, in a stunning move, President Biden is pushing Israel not to retaliate. It’s hard to imagine why Biden would do that, except when you consider that Joe Biden has been appeasing Iran since his days as Barack Obama’s vice president.
With that in mind, it’s also not surprising—though it’s still shocking— that Joe Biden not only had prior knowledge of Iran’s assault on Israel but also technically gave it the green light under certain conditions, according to a report from the Jerusalem Post.
Iran informed Turkey in advance of its planned operation against Israel, a Turkish diplomatic source told Reuters on Sunday, adding that Washington had conveyed to Tehran via Ankara that any action it took had to be “within certain limits.”
Turkey, which has denounced Israel for its campaign on Gaza, said earlier on Sunday that it did not want a further escalation of tensions in the region.
The Turkish source, speaking on condition of anonymity, said Turkish Foreign Minister Hakan Fidan had spoken to both his US Iranian counterparts in the past week to discuss the planned Iranian operation, adding Ankara had been made aware of possible developments.
Earlier this week, US Secretary of State Antony Blinken spoke to Fidan to make clear that escalation in the Middle East was not in anyone’s interest.
“Iran informed us in advance of what would happen. Possible developments also came up during the meeting with Blinken, and they (the US) conveyed to Iran through us that this reaction must be within certain limits,” the source said.
. . . So, let’s recap the facts here: Joe Biden told Iran’s leaders not to attack Israel, but they ignored him. Then he said they could attack Israel with some restrictions, though they clearly ignored that as well. Now, Biden is telling Israel not to retaliate. In short, Biden is still appeasing Iran.
Why is Joe Biden still kowtowing to Iran and throwing Israel under the bus? I can’t answer that, but I know that Israel can’t listen to Biden because doing so threatens its existence.
Matt Margolis, who I thought was one of the few astute pundits at PJ Media can’t seem to figure out why Biden is throwing Israel under the bus? Really? I’ll give him the benefit of the doubt and say he forgot to add the “/sarc” tag after that question. The answers are simple: First, going back decades to when Menachem Begin told then-Senator Biden to go piss up a rope when it came to the Delaware degenerate’s threats to withhold aid, arms and materiel because he was angry that they didn’t allow the “Palestinians” to slaughter them, Biden hates Israel. That hatred today is amplified by orders of magnitude because of his puppet master Obama’s winning combination of being a Muslim and Stalinist.
Second, we have the decades-long self-hatred and Israel-hatred of Foggy Bottom which views American global diplomatic and military supremacy somehow as a threat to the peace of the world. Hence, the desire to replace Israel with Iran as the dominant power in the Middle East. And that goes hand in hand with the desire to replace America as the beacon of freedom, prosperity and human advancement with a neo-Dark Age tyranny combining the worst elements of globalism, communism and Islam that in their eyes is the absolute moral authority and “the right side of history.”
Third, it’s a temporary political calculus because the Kalorama Klown Komintern is freaking out over the growing possibility that Donald Trump might actually overcome the cheat factor this November and return to the Oval Office. Most shockingly is a growing fear that Michigan, the former industrial powerhouse and Mecca – pun intended – of American industrial and capitalist know-how which since 1945 devolved into a burnt out husk of squalor, decay and a growing Muslim populace that might very well turn it into an Islamic no-go zone replete with sharia law (hell bent on spreading that madness coast to coast), might very well abandon Biden come November. That is, the Muslim populace of Dearbornistan will abandon Biden, regardless of what Whitmer, Nessel and what’s-her-face MI sec of state can and will do to drag his carcass across the finish line by hook or crook.
At every turn since 10/7, Biden has tried to thread the needle of “support” for the state of Israel (only to keep pro-Israel Jewish Democrats from cutting off the campaign bucks) while keeping his insane Marxist and Muslim constituencies happy by condemning and abandoning Israel. As Israel wisely and sanely ignored the calls for a cease fire, which in practical terms meant surrender to Hamas, Biden and company got caught in a pile up at the intersectionality intersection. Yet, despite increasingly anti-Israel rhetoric to actual abandonment at the UN Security Council, the the Marxist-Muslim constituents were still unimpressed and upped the ante.
So now, short of putting American boots on the ground in Gaza to help Hamas, which I thought could have been a real possibility with the construction of that port to ship “aid” in, Biden and company gave a green light to the mullahs to attack Israel. Late last week, CBD and I mused about what might happen as Israel moved in for the final assault on Hamas’ last four battalions and we both agreed that Iran’s proxy Hezbollah would likely attack from bases in Lebanon.
But think about it for a moment and it bears repeating: Iran actually told Biden beforehand that they were going to attack Israel. And Biden’s translators – one from gibberish to English and the other from English to Farsi – told the Iranians to “keep it within certain limits.”
And you don’t need me to translate that but just for the record, it means “Open season on Jews with no limits!” Joey Sponge-Brain Shits-Pants might actually have allowed a regional war in the Middle East that could well go nuclear to happen. All because he fears losing Michigan in November.
Remember, Iran directly attacked Israel, and not via proxies. That absolutely demands a response by Israel. What that will be or what countermoves after that by Iran, and God forbid Junta-controlled America and the west, will be is anyone’s guess.
SEFTON UPDATE:
Well, I’m in good spirits, feeling no physical pain and my cognitive, speech and motor functions remain normal. My initial consult with the neurosurgeon will be on the 24th, so the fact that experts who read, breathe, eat and sleep MRIs day in and day out have not put me at the head of the line I take as a positive sign. For sure, I expect they’ll have to do some sort of biopsy to see exactly what they’re dealing with and from there, I’ll have a better picture of how they will deal with it and the prognosis.
Until then, I’ll be here and again, I can’t express my gratitude for all your prayers and words of support. Keep the faith.
