The eye-opening report below in Tablet Magazine further demonstrates how the Biden administration is undermining America while promoting a foreign terrorist entity. As a leading proxy of Iran, Hizballah’s goal is to obliterate Israel. Now the group is getting aid from American taxpayers who have been given no choice.
Under Trump’s leadership, not only was Iran sanctioned, but the House of Representatives Committee on Foreign Affairs assembled to strategize on policy options to attack Hizballah’s financial network. But those days are long gone.
“Team Biden Mainstreams Terror Financing in Lebanon,” by Tony Badran, Tablet Magazine, June 5, 2023:
So obsessed is the Biden administration with the dubious art of using taxpayer dollars to underwrite the Lebanese pseudo-state run by the terrorist group Hezbollah that it has spent its two years in office coming up with legally questionable schemes to pay the salaries of the Lebanese Armed Forces (LAF), setting new precedents in the abuse of U.S. foreign security assistance programs. In January, the administration rolled out its program to provide direct salary payments, in cash, to both the Lebanese Armed Forces (LAF) and the Internal Security Forces (ISF). This time around, the White House won’t be delivering the cash on pallets, as Obama did when he bribed Iran. Rather, it will disburse the crisp dollar bills through the U.N. Development Program. The result is the same: The U.S. government’s giant cash pump is working overtime to benefit a terror group that has purposefully maimed and killed hundreds of Americans.
The scale of U.S. financing of Lebanon’s Hezbollah-dominated military apparatus cannot be understated: around 100,000 Lebanese are now getting cash stipends courtesy of the American taxpayer to spend in Hezbollah-land. But a small thing like the U.S. becoming massively complicit in financing terrorism hardly causes Team Obama-Biden to bat an eyelid. As the administration’s nominee for the next ambassador to Lebanon, Lisa Johnson, told the Senate Foreign Relations Committee last month, if confirmed she would “continue to advocate for very strong, robust security assistance to the Lebanese Armed Forces and Internal Security Forces.” And that’s because “they’re doing a great job of bolstering stability and security in this part of the world.”
No doubt. And as a testament to the exceptional job the LAF is doing, Johnson’s comments came a couple of weeks after Hezbollah fired or allowed the firing of 34 rockets across the border and dispatched a bomber from Lebanon deep into Israel, and a few days before the group put on a large military exercise to which it invited local and international media…..

Uncle Joe is delusional. He expects all people of all cultures to think and act like Americans do. With Hezbullah, you cannot catch more flies with honey than vinegar, you catch more flies when you have a stranglehold on their throats and demand submission.

This is one of the ways that the “wild beast, the false prophet and the great dragon” are “gathering the nations for Armageddon.”
Murdering babies, killing and mutilating small children “at home,” and funding the murder of others “abroad,” is sop with the evil snakes working to make satan’s dreams and desires come true.

Joe Biden favoring Hezbollah which is a stooge jihad entity of Islamic Iran reveals Bien as wicked likewise with his appeasement policy towards the anti-Israel Iran and PA with its President Mahmoud Abbas is terrible.
Nevertheless Biden is greatly the all overruled by God The reason why this is so is because according to the Bible the Jews have all the land that now makes up the State of Israel ,including the West Bank by Divine Right. As found in Genesis 28:13-15. 35:10-12. Deuteronomy 32:48,49. Psalm 105: 7-11. 135: 4.
Furthermore, the Jews should have all this land by historic rights. As seen in First Kings 4; 20,21,24,25. 8:55, 56.
Biden is fool for going against the Will of God.
Walter Sieruk says
With Joe Biden funding Hezbollah and him also being so very favorable to Islamic Iran that he even wants to give that hostile and vicious anti- America, anti-Israel Islamic regime of Iran everything it wants . Even the means to manufacture nuclear weapons. Likewise, Biden is a close comrade of that Israel hating Abbas of the PA.
Nevertheless as much as Joe Biden hate’s Israel the truth is the God had given all this land that now composes the State of Israel, including all of the West Bank, to the Jewish people. This may be found in the Bible, as seen in, for example, Genesis 28:13-15. 35:10-12. Deuteronomy 32:48,49. Psalm 105:7-11. 135:4.
In other words the Jews have tall this land by Divine Right. Furthermore, the Jewish people should have this land by historic rights as shown in First Kings 4:20,21, 24,25. 8:55, 56.
Still, in all fairness, there is one way for Joe Biden to convince God to change His Mind about being so much for Israel and then cause Him to turn His back on Israel and then have that nation be no more.
That way is for Biden to meet with Mahmoud Abbas of the PA along with President Rasis of Iran and then they will change the laws of astrophysics, including those laws of astrophysics the control the sun, the moon and the stars. For God had declared in His Word, the Bible, in Jeremiah 31:35,36. “Thus saith the Lord, Who gives the sun for a light by day and the ordinances of the moon and stars for a light by night…The Lord of host is His name. If those ordinances depart from before Me, saith the Lord, then the seed of Israel also shall cease from being a nation before Me forever.”
Joe Biden is a deluded wicked fool.

Whenever I hear about this sort of crap going on, about how various gumbyments waste the peoples money it simply sickens me.
This sort of BS and vote buying has been going on for centuries and it really needs to stop.
If the regular people had access to the books of their own federal governments, saw where all the money is going, there would be another revolution and the streets would be lined with the bodies of the corrupt.

It appears that American foreign aid has become a money train for our politicians and foreign leaders to get rich off of. American charity should come from the people, NOT the government. Our TAX dollars should be spent on protecting our country and improving our infrastructure not supporting foreign leaders and the pockets of crooked American politicians.
