As Eric Clapton famously sang, ‘before you accuse me, take a look at yourself’.
Does the phrase ‘righteous strike’ ring any bells? Now that team Biden has begun moralizing on ‘evil’ Israel killing ‘World Central Kitchen’ aid workers, it opens the door to other issues.
John Kirby is just one of the Biden Democrats piling on Israel after an airstrike took out seven members of an NGO. Notice his very public and damning use of the word ‘outraged’.
“We were outraged to learn of an IDF strike that killed a number of civilian humanitarian workers yesterday from the World Central Kitchen, which has been relentlessly working to get food to those who are hungry in Gaza, and quite frankly, around the world,” White House national security spokesman John Kirby said at a news briefing Tuesday. “We send our deepest condolences to their families and loved ones.” — CNN
Biden took to his bully pulpit to publicly condemn Israel for this errant strike.
I am outraged and heartbroken by the deaths of seven humanitarian workers from World Central Kitchen, including one American, in Gaza yesterday. They were providing food to hungry civilians in the middle of a war. They were brave and selfless. Their deaths are a tragedy.
Israel has pledged to conduct a thorough investigation into why the aid workers’ vehicles were hit by airstrikes. That investigation must be swift, it must bring accountability, and its findings must be made public.
Even more tragically, this is not a stand-alone incident. […] Israel has not done enough to protect aid workers trying to deliver desperately needed help to civilians. Incidents like yesterday’s simply should not happen. Israel has also not done enough to protect civilians.
Notice, there is no similar denunciation of, say, Lebanon where UN workers were just killed by a Hezbollah roadside bomb.
Team Biden hates Bibi in particular… with a hatred that goes back years. Schumer has called for him to vacate his position as head of state, and Joe Biden spoke approvingly of it.
Obviously, much of this shift comes in response to pressure from the hard-left activist wing of his own party.
But in making public declarations of his outrage, he’s calling attention to his own record… and that of those other two presidents he was just hob-knobbing with while Trump visited the family of the fallen New York cop.
If ‘outrage’ is the correct response to an air strike killing 7 aid workers in Israel, where is the accountability for the following unspeakable acts?
BILL CLINTON: Bad intelligence led Bill to green-light a missile strike against a pharmaceutical factory, claiming ‘credible evidence’ it was making nerve gas for Al Qaeda. (He also blocked the CIA from taking out Osama Bin Laden 3 years before 9/11, not just the time it would have required vaporizing Kandahar, but another time when OBL was more isolated.)
BARACK OBAMA:
The 542 drone strikes that Obama authorized killed an estimated 3,797 people, including 324 civilians. As he reportedly told senior aides in 2011: “Turns out I’m really good at killing people. Didn’t know that was gonna be a strong suit of mine.” — Council On Foreign Relations
JOE BIDEN:
Maybe Joe could spare some small portion of his outrage for the clowns responsible for America embarrassing itself on the national stage in Afghanistan.
First, the botched withdrawal goes back to the Commander-in-Chief’s fateful decision to slash staffing levels, leaving the staffing and protection of both the Bagram air base and the local embassy impossible.
We walked away from the air base and opened the prison doors. This freed the terrorist who would be responsible for the Abby Gate bombing, killing and maiming American and Afghans alike in the frantic hours of Biden’s retreat from Kabul.
Trying to look strong, he pledged hold those responsible ‘accountable’ and ordered the droning of target which Biden and his flunkies told us had ‘secondary explosions’ and was proven to be a ‘righteous strike’.
That was a lie. We droned an aid worker delivering water, and killed his kids in the process. The ACLU is involved in the case which is yet to be resolved.
Meanwhile, the measures Israel takes to protect the lives of non-combatants puts all other nations to shame.
With most everyone in the world waiting to play a gotcha game like the one Biden just played, Israel cannot afford to do otherwise.
Psalms of War: Prayers That Literally Kick Ass is a collection, from the book of Psalms, regarding how David rolled in prayer. I bet you haven’t heard these read, prayed, or sung in church against our formidable enemies — and therein lies the Church’s problem. We’re not using the spiritual weapons God gave us to waylay the powers of darkness. It might be time to dust them off and offer ‘em up if you’re truly concerned about the state of Christ’s Church and of our nation.
Also included in this book, Psalms of War, are reproductions of the author’s original art from his Biblical Badass Series of oil paintings.
This is a great gift for the prayer warriors. Real. Raw. Relevant.
