After 9/11, Biden Wanted to Send $200 Million to Islamic Terrorists

Sep 15, 2020 9:00 am By Daniel Greenfield 29 Comments

No administration since Jimmy Carter’s had done more to enable and appease Islamic terrorists than the Obama-Biden administration. But Joe Biden wasn’t a patsy in a radical administration. As his original response to 9/11 shows, his own position was always favorable to Islamic terrorists.

“This,” Joe Biden announces, “is what I’ve spent my entire adult life preparing for.” It’s exactly three Tuesdays since the September attacks, and Biden is presiding over a morning meeting of his committee staffers…

At the Tuesday-morning meeting with committee staffers, Biden launches into a stream-of-consciousness monologue about what his committee should be doing, before he finally admits the obvious: “I’m groping here.”

Then he hits on an idea: America needs to show the Arab world that we’re not bent on its destruction. “Seems to me this would be a good time to send, no strings attached, a check for $200 million to Iran,” Biden declares.

Biden’s response to an attack by Islamic terrorists was a proposal to send $200 million to Islamic terrorists. The Obama-Biden administration topped that be sending billions to Iran. And Biden’s campaign platform calls for going back to those days.

But this is the same Joe Biden who threatened to impeach Bush if he tried to take out Iran’s nukes.

Waging a presidential campaign amid rising tensions with Iran 12 years ago, Joe Biden, then a senator from Delaware, had a warning for President George W. Bush should he decide to take military action without congressional authorization.

“I want it on the record, and I want to make it clear,” Biden said. “If he does, I will move to impeach him.”

And around whom allegations of Iranian funding have lingered.

Kaveh Mohseni, a spokesman for the Student Movement Coordination Committee for Democracy in Iran, calls Biden “a great friend of the mullahs.” He notes that Bidens election campaigns “have been financed by Islamic charities of the Iranian regime based in California and by the Silicon Iran network,” a loosely-knit group of wealthy Iranian-American businessmen and women seeking to end the U.S. trade embargo on Iran. “In exchange, the senator does his best to aid the mullahs,” Mohseni argues. Biden’s ties to pro-Tehran lobbying groups are no secret.

That’s why aiding Iran has always been Biden’s priority.

Biden undermined President Bush’s efforts to rein in Iran’s terrorism by voting against listing the Revolutionary Guard, which was supplying weapons to help the Taliban kill American soldiers, as a terrorist group (a position he shared with Kerry, Hagel and Obama) and berating Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice for not negotiating with Iran and Assad.

What was Biden’s big proposal to address the coronavirus?

About the only two areas where he fundamentally differed from President Trump’s approach was on a national mask mandate, which he then discarded, and using the coronavirus as a pretext to get Iran access to money.

Again.

In total, 34 House and Senate Democrats, had signed an Iran Lobby letter during one of the worst crises in American history, where many of their own constituents were dead or dying.

Official endorsees on Bernie’s Senate site included NIAC.

While the Sanders letter had started out as an extreme position, a few days later, Joe Biden, the presumptive Democrat nominee, urged President Trump to ease sanctions on Iran and “streamline channels for banking”. The beneficiaries of such measures wouldn’t be ordinary Iranians, but the regime’s terror elite and their international financial partners.

Within the space of a week, a fringe position advocated by Sanders, Cortez, and Omar had become incorporated into the official stance of the Democrat nominee for the White House.

This is who Joe Biden was and this is who he is.

      Joe Biden, like many people in politics, seems to ask the WIIFM question first, then, respond accordingly.

      What’s in it for me?

      Joe Biden, with his Cheshire cat grin and Reptilian eyes, has done well for himself and his immediate family.

      https://www.forbes.com/sites/michelatindera/2019/08/28/joe-bidens-net-worth-how-the-2020-presidential-candidate-built-a-9-million-fortune/#387fa354104d

      https://get.blazetv.com/riding-the-dragon/

      Looking at his track record, shouldn’t we expect him to continue his strategy of appeasement, with the provision that he and his family are handsomely compensated, regardless of what’s good for the American People?

      Barry Hussein is definitely Muslim. As for Biden – all I can say is, *Wow* – I can’t believe that his response to the 9/11 attacks was to give Iran $200 million – maybe he is a closet Muslim. He is a danger to America that is for sure.

    Biden isn’t sure what he believes, but he’s willing to spend your money showing it.

    This is very eye-opening and it shows how badly compromised American politicians are. Biden and I’m sure many Democrats are clearly puppets of Iran and the Islamic agenda in general.

    Who knows how many more people at all levels of govt are bought off by the enemies of America. Now I understand why the US had refused to go after Iran’s nukes because of sellouts and traitors in our midst.

    Trump needs to go after all those involved, the politicians taking bribes, those offering them and throw them in jail. They are influencing politics to the detriment and well being of Americans in general, I really hope something is done about this.

      I think this is more about “political correctness” and appeasement than about bribery per se. Not that this is not still terribly dangerous.

      JohnTheRevelator,

      Interesting comments.

      I’m not sure that the “compromised” or “bought off” scenario can fully explain what we are witnessing.

      Now, those 2 situations probably do exist, to what extent, only God knows. At the minimum, there is the quid pro quo going on.

      The more likely scenario is that too many of the people in Washington, especially those in key positions, are part of the “global elite” and they have been strategically placed to facilitate the “fundamental transformation of the United States of America.”

    Let us not disrepect Joe too much. He *did* somehow enrich his family while serving as a humble public servant, first with his brother, then with another brother, then with a sister-in-law, then with his son. The man has a productive portfolio to his name, and not one felony prosecution.

    The Untied States of America definitely doesn’t need that dangerous and incompetent Joe Biden siting in the White House . America needs President Trump to stay a as President of the USA for four more years .

    Biden is rather similar to Hillary Clinton, except less intelligent.

    By contrast ,President Trump is intelligent and patriotic , somewhat like intellectual former US George Washington and Thomas Jefferson.

    Concerning Washington and Jefferson and also this nineteenth anniversary of the abominations which occurred on September 11, 2001, it’s therefore very appropriate to site the wisdom of the first Constitutional President of the United States of America, George Washington, who had, so well explained “To be prepared for war is one of the most effectual means of preserving peace.” Moreover President Washington stated that “However pacific the general policy of the nation may be ,it ought never be without an adequate stock of military knowledge for emergencies.”

    Furthermore, with this post- 9/11 USA it should likewise be remembered that one very good way to defeat the jihadists who compose the many brutal and deadly Islamic terror entities ,such as al Qaeda, ISIS, the Taliban, is by the means of a very strong power of US military might. As Thomas Jefferson had declared “With every barbarous people …force is law.”

      Absolutely true, but it’s even worse than that:

      If by some fluke, Biden gets in, it will actually be a Harris administration – with Leftists appointed to all key positions.

      I first voted in the 1972 presidential election, and I can say for sure:

      This November 2020 presidential election is the most important one in my lifetime…

    DC politicians taking money from you to buy the friends that you don’t want or need. The DC political scene is a grifting sleasefest. Congressional approval is in the neighborhood of 17 percent. Congress has few friends among the American citizenry and the foreign friends they have they have to buy. And yet they call themselves the leaders of the free world. We need representation that represents the interests of the American people and not their foreign free stuff crowd. We are well in to taxation without representation.

      Biden wants to show the Arab world that the US is not bent on its destruction so he wants to send gobs of money to Iran? And to show Russia that the US is not hell-bent on its destruction, he would propose to send gobs of money to China? And to show the same lack of enmity toward North Korea he would send money to Japan? This clown needs to restrict himself to internal matters, or less.

    The only true statement that Biden ever made,”I’m groping here”. He’s always groping mentally, and when little girls are around, he also loves him a little bit of physical groping.
