CAL THOMAS COMMENTARY FEBRUARY 9, 2024
SECRETARY OF STATE ANTHONY BLINKEN HAS MADE HIS SEVENTH TRIP TO THE MIDDLE EAST. MAKE NO MISTAKE, THIS ISN’T ABOUT DEFEATING HAMAS. LIKE THE OBAMA ADMINISTRATION, BLINKEN IS PROMOTING POLICIES THAT WOULD ACHIEVE THE OBJECTIVE OF MANY IN THE REGION – THE ELIMINATION OF ISRAEL.
AFTER MEETING WEDNESDAY WITH ISRAELI PRIME MINISTER BENJAMIN NATANYAHU, BLINKEN MADE THE FAMILIAR STATEMENTS ABOUT ISRAEL HAVING A RIGHT TO DEFEND ITSELF. HE THEN WENT ON TO PRAISE ISRAEL FOR ALLOWING SO-CALLED “HUMANITARIAN AID” TO REACH GAZA AND URGED THE PROTECTION OF CIVILIANS.
A PLURALITY OF GAZA VOTERS ELECTED HAMAS LEADERS, WHO THEN MURDERED AND EXPELLED THE SUPPOSED MORE MODERATE FATAH ORGANIZATION. HAMAS IS RESPONSIBLE FOR CIVILIAN DEATHS BY HIDING AMONG CIVILIANS AND FIRING ROCKETS FROM HOSPITALS, MOSQUES AND SCHOOLS AS BLINKEN ACKNOWLEDGED.
WHY, THEN, WOULD HE CONTINUE TO PUSH FOR A PALESTINIAN STATE, WHICH WOULD BE GAZA TIMES 100 AS TERRORISTS WOULD TAKE OVER AND FINISH THE JOB OF ERADICATING ISRAEL? EVIL MUST BE DEFEATED OR IT WILL WIN. I’M CAL THOMAS.
