Biden's halting of weapons for Israel under attack

 Newsmax:

President Joe Biden's decision to halt weapons shipments to Israel if it moves ahead with a military operation in the Gaza city of Rafah has not gone over well with a Democrat mega doner who held a $4.5 million fundraiser in February for Biden's re-election campaign.

Israeli American billionaire Haim Saban, the chairman of Univision and CEO of Saban Capital Group, wrote in an email to Biden administration aides Steve Ricchetti and Anita Dunn that Biden's decision to halt the weapons shipment was "bad, bad, bad" on all levels and asked them to urge the president to reconsider.

The decision "to stop sending munitions to Israel" as it fights Iranian-backed Hamas terrorists in the Gaza Strip sends "a terrible message to our allies in the region," wrote Saban in the email, a copy of which was circulated on social media.

"WE, the US, as you stated numerous times, believe that Hamas should be defeated," Saban wrote. "WE, the US, in this case, YOU Mr. President, have decided to stop sending munitions to Israel to achieve the goal that WE/YOU have set up for Israel and ourselves."

Saban indicated that Biden was flipping from doing the "right thing" to "bending to political pressure." Biden has faced significant blowback from the Muslim community for his support of Israel's military operation in Gaza following Hamas' terrorist attack Oct. 7, especially in battleground states such as Michigan, Wisconsin, and Minnesota. Plus, anti-Israel protests on college campuses across the nation are calling, among other things, for Biden to push for a cease-fire in the war.

"Let's not forget there are more Jewish voters who care about Israel than Muslim voters who care about Hamas," Saban wrote. "Bad, bad, bad decision on all levels. Pls reconsider."
...

Biden's attempt to save Hamas from destruction makes no sense on any strategic level.  That he is bending to the will of Hamas supporters in the US is disgraceful. The US should consider deporting Hamas supporters.  Anyone supporting the mass murder of Jews should not be welcome in US politics.

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
