The US should not push for a ceasefire in Israel until Hamas is destroyed

Federalist Wire:

...

When Hamas attacked Israel on October 7 last year, Biden was quick to offer his support of the Jewish nation and their effort to defend themselves from the terrorist group.

But now that he’s received pushback by radical Leftists in his party for this support, he’s proposing a ceasefire. The proposal entails demands of Israel that they do not want to agree to as they work to defeat Hamas.

That’s led to families of hostages being held by Hamas to come out against the proposal by President Biden.

Tikva Forum for Families of Hostages posted a statement on X last week to demand that Biden stop pressuring the Israeli government through ceasefire proposals.

“The Biden administration’s continued pressure on the Israeli government’s decision-making during this existential war is unacceptable,” the group’s post said.

“The outline proposed by President Biden, ostensibly on behalf of the Israeli government, is a proposal that endangers the future of the State of Israel.”

Tikva Forum for Families of Hostages then laid out details as to why Biden’s ceasefire proposal is dangerous for Israel and the hostages being held captive by Hamas.

“Hamas must be completely destroyed. Every sign of weakness will empower it to commit the next massacre. The abductees will only be returned if Hamas is totally dismantled and begs for help,” the post continued.

“If Gazans are allowed to return to the northern Gaza Strip before the release of all the hostages, Israel will lose a key form of pressure. One that can cost our hostages’ lives.”
...

Hamas revealed itself as a mass murder organization bent on the destruction of the Jews.  It began its current campaign with the mass murder of thousands of Jewish non-combatants at an outdoor concert.  A ceasefire would only benefit the Hamas leadership and allow them to kill again.

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
