The Astonishing But Unsurprising Breaking News Of The Day

The Biden Administration has just announced that it has suspended all arms sales to the United Arab Emirates and to Saudi Arabia.

This includes the 50 F35s that President Trump agreed to sell the UAE which formed the basis of the first Arab normalization agreement with Israel. 

In the case of Saudi Arabia, the Administration apparently wants to make sure that no American weapons will be used to fight the Iranian-proxy Houthis in Yemen.

As we noted, all of this is astonishing but not surprising. In one fell swoop, President Biden has moved to undermine the Abraham Accords, remove an air threat to Iran, and to protect Iranian interests in the region. More on this in tomorrow’s blog.

PM Netanyahu’s Eloquent Remarks On

This International Holocaust Day

PM Netanyahu’s eloquent words speak for themselves.

“Today, January 27, the world commemorates the horrific murders of six million Jews – men, women and children – by the Nazis and their aides in the Holocaust. We remember the darkest chapter in human history, when a European country decided to adopt a systematic plan to exterminate Jews, and mobilized its full developed industrial power to realize this appalling horror.

The mass murder of the Jewish people did not take place in a vacuum. For centuries, anti-Semitism had been widespread throughout Europe. With no one to challenge it, it intensified, spread and finally erupted in full force. Hatred of Israel, which has its roots in ancient times and left its negative mark on the Middle Ages, has now moved on in full force to the new era.

There are those who thought that after the horrors of Auschwitz and Treblinka, humanity would draw the necessary lessons once and for all, shake off the poison of anti-Semitism and throw the destructive hatred into its rightful place in the dustbin of history.

They made a bitter mistake. The scourge of toxic anti-Semitism continues to spread in the 21st century. It can be found on the campuses of reputable universities in North America, in madrasas in South Asia, and among European elites. Anti-Semitism is present in the developed world in the West and in the developing world in the East.

It is the official policy of Iran, which declares day after day, with arrogant arrogance: our goal is to exterminate another six million Jews, and to destroy the State of Israel.

Indeed, a vaccine for the antisemitic virus has not yet been found. And there are those who say that this phenomenon will not go away because there are things that never change.

But I can tell you what has changed: we, the Jewish people, have changed. If during the Holocaust we were homeless, stateless and helpless, and had to beg others to protect us, this is no longer true. Today we are free, rooted in our homeland and powerful in our independent state.

As the Prime Minister of the powerful and proud State of Israel – a state born of a new life after the Holocaust, a state resurrected from the ashes of destruction, a state that provided a home for the survivors, a state where the Jewish people fulfill their dream of resurrection – I swear we will never forget the tragic past.

‘Never again’ is not just a slogan. This is our policy, and this is our mission. We will stand strong and with God’s help we will guarantee the eternity of Israel.”

Well said, PM Netanyahu.
