Quote:The Biden administration was barely an hour old when it started making some noticeable changes in Washington. The U.S. ambassador to Israel account now reads "U.S. Ambassador to Israel, the West Bank, and Gaza." And foreign policy analysts have some questions.

The Washington Free Beacon suggests that the change means the White House is backing away from its predecessor's pro-Israel agenda. The edit, Adam Kredo writes, marks "a significant shift in policy toward Israel" because it suggests that neither the West Bank or Gaza are Israeli territories.

The change in title marks a significant shift in policy toward Israel. The United States has for decades declined to take a policy position on the West Bank and Gaza territories, maintaining the Israelis and the Palestinians must decide in negotiations how the areas will be split up for a future Palestinian state. By including Gaza and the West Bank in the ambassador's portfolio, the Biden administration appears to be determining that neither area is part of Israel—a move that is certain to rile Israeli leaders. The incoming administration's move also signals that it will elevate the next ambassador's role to include conducting direct diplomacy with Palestinian leaders, including in the Gaza Strip, where the Hamas terror group maintains control. This is the only ambassador tasked with conducting diplomacy in a region controlled by a U.S.-designated terror group. (Free Beacon)

President Trump had a warm relationship with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, whom he had known long before coming president, and made good on a few of his pro-Israel campaign trail promises. Namely, he moved the U.S. embassy from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem, and he formally recognized the Golan Heights as Israeli territory.

It'll hardly get any press, if any at all, on the mainstream news. Most liberal voters will never have any idea of it. If they do, they'll cheer it.

Waiting for Anti-Israel Tom and his little left leaning minions to come and celebrate it.

Israel probably told them where he could go with that title.

BTW, Israel doesn't consider Gaza part of their territory.

There are actually lots of Democrats who are still pro-Israel, and attach a high-level of importance/priority to maintaining a close relationship with Israel. It’s just that they don’t have much power to affect policy within the Biden Admin.

Charles Schumer is probably the only one who can. Will he? Stay tuned.

No it won't cause an issue...I know a bunch of Jews who still vote lockstep Democrat...they ignore the obvious that Trump was the best friend Israel ever had.

I have a Jewish friend who talks about the people at the Temple who talk non-stop about Trump being anti-semitic. You know, the one with the Jewish daughter and son-in-law and another Jewish daughter-in-law and lots of Jewish advisers.

The things that people will tell themselves, in order to avoid cognitive dissonance, are just incredible.

And the one who brokered all those unprecedented peace deals with Israel's Arab neighbors.

I'm shocked that Pedo Joe hasn't already named Rashida Tlaib or Ilhan Omar to some sort of cabinet position over Israeli interests. Then again, I'm also waiting on him to appoint Bradley "Chelsea" Manning as head of the Pentagon.

According to both the OT and NT, most Jews are not going up there. They are going down there.

There will be a national turning to Jesus as their Messiah just before the 2nd coming when the Antichrist is engaging in a world wide genocide on them. Jesus was actually pretty clear He would not return until they do. (Matt 23:38-39, Hosea 5:15, ect)

At first they will embrace the antichrist, then at the midpoint when he declares himself God they will realize their mistake and he will begin a genocide against them that will make Hitler look like a Zionist.

Hitler killed 1/3rd of the Jews worldwide, scripture suggests the antichrist will kill 2/3rds. The remaining 1/3rd will finally accept Jesus as their Messiah at their darkest hour.
