Trump best friend Israel had as President

 Trending Politics:

Former President Donald Trump has been awarded the Theodor Herzl Medallion by the Zionist Organization of America, a group that works tirelessly to help strengthen relations between the United States and Israel, while also combating anti-Israeli bias.

According to Newsmax, an email was sent out to members of the group which stated that it was planning to honor Trump for “being the best friend Israel ever had in the White House.”

“Dr. Miriam Adelson, physician and billionaire, will present Trump’s award on Nov. 13 at the Zionist Organization’s national awards dinner in New York City. Adelson will also honor House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy, R-Calif., with ZOA’s Dr. Miriam and Sheldon G. Adelson Defender of Israel Award,” the report stated.

The email then went on to list some of Trump’s accomplishments that led to his being nominated for the award.
  • Moving the U.S. embassy from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem;
  • Recognizing Israel’s sovereignty over the Golan Heights;
  • Brokering the Abraham Accords peace agreements between Israel, Bahrain and the United Arab Emirates; and three months later, between Israel and Morocco;
  • Removing the U.S. from the 2015 Iran nuclear deal;
  • Stopping U.S. funding of the Palestinian Authority and UNRWA, a group exclusively focused on financing Palestinian refugees and their descendants;
  • Recognizing the legality of Jewish settlements in Judea and Samaria;
  • Being the first U.S. president to pray at the Western Wall; and
  • Issuing an executive order to strengthen Title VI of the Civil Rights Act in order to protect Jewish students

The thing that no doubt eats away at many liberals is that Israelis have, for the most part, looked on the Trump administration and its position on Israel positively. Back in January 2020, then-Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu repeated the description, calling the former president the “best friend that Israel has ever had in the White House.”

A survey that was conducted by the Pew Research Center during the spring of 2019 on 33 countries discovered that Israel was the only country where a vast majority of the population approved of the policies put forward by Trump. In Israel, a total of 71 percent of the people expressed confidence in Trump’s “world leadership.”

Biden is trying to renew the Iran deal opposed by Israel for reasons that remain unclear.  The current rulers of Iran are genocidal religious bigots who want to wipeout the Israelis.

Should Republicans go ahead and add Supreme Court Justices to head off Democrats

Washington Post: Some Democrats eye adding more justices to the Supreme Court to change its ideological bent The once-remote idea has gained the attention of liberals angered by the GOP push to remake the federal courts. Probably the easy way to defeat this court-packing scheme is for Trump to propose doing the same thing now.  It would lead to Democrat denunciations and claims that it would be wrong, thereby blowing up any attempt by them in the unfortunate event of Democrats winning a presidential election.

29 % of companies say they are unlikely to keep insurance after Obamacare

Conn Carroll: A new survey of 368 midsize to large companies found that 29% of them are considering terminating their active employee health care plans when Obamacare is full implemented in 2014. Only 71% of employers surveyed said they did not expect to drop their health coverage, while 20% said they did not know and 9% said they were planning to exit. The latest survey, conducted by Towers Watson, echoes an ealier survey by McKinsey & Co. finding that 30% of private-sector employers were planning to drop their employee health insurance coverage by 2014. When the Congressional Budget Office crunched Obamacare's spending numbers, they estimated that only 7% of employees currently covered by employer-sponsored plans would lose their plans. ... This means the cost of the health care fiasco will be hundreds of billions more than estimated by the CBO and Congressional Democrat. It is also clear that Obama's pledge that you could keep your health care plan if you wanted t

Bin Laden's concern about Zarqawi's remains

James Robbins: ... Bin Laden suggests that President Bush should allow Zarqawi’s body to be returned to his family in Jordan, but this is a matter that is up to the Jordanian government, which so far has not shown much interest in facilitating a homecoming. Bin Laden mocks King Abdullah II, calling him a Coalition minion, and asking “w hat scares you about Abu Musab after he’s dead? You know that his funeral, if allowed to happen, would be a huge funeral showing the extent of sympathy with the mujahedin.” A large crowd would definitely turn out, though most people would be on hand to demonstrate their anger and disgust. Last November’s hotel bombings in Amman , masterminded by Zarqawi, are still fresh in people’s memory, and mentioning them to Jordanians has the same visceral impact as memory of the 9/11 attacks does here. Jordan has adopted a zero-tolerance policy towards those who choose to mourn the country’s least favorite son, and four opposition members of parliament who paid con
