Biden Sets Israel on Fire

It’s not foreign interference when Democrats do it.

The world has learned a lot watching America’s Middle East freedom agenda wind its way through the Fertile Crescent, North Africa, and then up the Nile, first under George W. Bush and then under Barack Obama. The first of these lessons is that when U.S. policymakers selectively deploy the rhetoric of democracy and human rights against target governments, their words are typically accompanied by practical measures to destabilize those governments, including U.S. allies.

[…]

A similar operation is now underway in Israel, where the Biden administration has departed from diplomatic protocol by repeatedly advertising its meetings with the political faction seeking to undo Israel’s newly elected right-wing government. More significantly, Biden’s State Department is now directly funding local activists organizing the protests. By publicly putting its prestige and money behind the coalition that lost the latest Israeli election, Washington is openly advertising its desire to bring down Netanyahu.

Maybe it seems strange that the current U.S. presidential administration considers Israel’s government hostile to American interests. Why, it was just months ago that Biden aides mediated an arrangement between Israel and Lebanon over their maritime border. Even practical, hard-minded Israeli officials said the deal enhanced security and may even lead to more positive steps with the Beirut government. Surely that’s indicative of good relations between Washington and Jerusalem, no?

In reality, the maritime agreement was just the latest in a series of initiatives to realign U.S. interests with those of the terror regime in Tehran…

The Most Interesting Man In The World

NYPost;

Two Russian billionaires who have managed to dodge US sanctions over Moscow’s year-old invasion of Ukraine went property shopping with Hunter Biden, dined with then-Vice President Joe Biden, and discussed “favors” they might swap, sources tell The Post.

New details of Joe and Hunter Biden’s association with Yelena Baturina and Vladimir Yevtushenkov flesh out tantalizing clues from the first son’s abandoned laptop. The sources spoke with The Post this week after the duo was yet again spared a fresh batch of sanctions announced by the Treasury Department Friday.

“I think it’s very fishy,” said one source who had firsthand knowledge of the business relationship between Hunter Biden and Yevtushenkov — who is sanctioned by the UK and Australia but not by the US.

“I think he should be sanctioned,” Michael McFaul, a former US ambassador to Russia under President Barack Obama, told The Post of Yevtushenkov — estimated by Forbes to be worth $1.7 billion. “I don’t understand why he has not been.”

Hear my drum.

A Lower Mainland Cannabis company says it has received approval from Health Canada to legally possess, produce, and sell cocaine.

Adastra Holdings Inc. in Langley received a Controlled Drug and Substances Dealer’s Licence in August last year, which — at the time — only allowed it to produce and distribute up to 1,000 grams of psilocybin and psilocin, psychoactive compounds found in various species of fungi.

Now the company says its dealer’s licence has been expanded to include cocaine, allowing it to interact with up to 250 grams of the drug. This includes permission to import coca leaves to manufacture and synthesize cocaine.

To expose foreign interference is to empower foreign interference.

Almost as effective as MP Mark Gerretsen blaming Stephen Harper.

Woke Britain:  Neil Oliver is under attack.  School boy receives death threats.  Wasting time on right wing threats.  A drag show for babies.

The Chinese Colony Of Canada:  Giving the land back (Warning: CBC Link).  I guess leftists are getting tired of destroying statues and burning down churches. Paint thrown on wooly mammoth.  Today Peking Justin burns jet fuel to Winnipeg.  The Toronto Raptors apologize.  Hans Gruber’s climate air fares.  The feds are afraid of upsetting China.

Wakanda News:  The South Africa collapse.

Biden’s America:  The hostages in Wisconsin.  Some leftist fairy tales.  The Democrat priorities.  This week’s really big lies.  Pfizer unable to finish press conference.  Your morning meme.
