U.S. Administration Trying to Overthrow Israeli Government?

The Land of Israel · Israel Uncensored: U.S. Administration Trying to Overthrow Israeli Government?

On today’s Israel Uncensored, Josh Hasten shares that a senior Israeli official slammed a U.S. intelligence report claiming that the government of Prime Minister Netanyahu is in jeopardy. In other words, this self-fulfilling prophecy attempt is another sign that the Biden Administration wants Netanyhu and his right-wing government out of power. At the same time, it was reported that Biden and company are considering withholding U.S. military aid should Israel try to finish off Hamas in the southern Gaza town of Rafah. Israel has made clear that it must destroy the remaining Hamas battalions in Rafah in order to achieve victory over the terrorist organization.

The American People Stand With Israel

The Land of Israel · Israel Uncensored: The American People Stand With Israel

Even as the Biden Administration threatens that Israel is on the verge of losing international support due to its “conservative” government, a recent poll shows that over 80% of the American people stand with Israel in its war to eradicate Hamas. On this week’s Israel Uncensored, Josh Hasten discusses how despite the weekly attempts by the U.S. president to overturn all of the pro-Israel gestures implemented under President Trump – this week it was Secretary of State Blinken stating that Jewish communities in Judea and Samaria are illegal under international law, the American people are not being fooled. They continue to maintain their moral clarity when it comes to the Jewish State.

U.S. Vetoes UN Ceasefire Resolution

The Land of Israel · Israel Uncensored: U.S. Vetoes UN Ceasefire Resolution

The United States on Tuesday vetoed an Algerian-sponsored U.N. Security Council resolution calling for an immediate ceasefire in Gaza. On today’s Israel Uncensored, Josh Hasten says that the Biden administration is playing both sides of the fence. The veto is appreciated, but at the same time the U.S. continues to call for the establishment of a P.A. state which would be a win for Hamas, while also voicing concern over a necessary military operation in Rafah. Israel insists that it will continue full steam ahead until Hamas is defeated and the hostages are brought home.
