Biden Plan Leaves Hamas Afloat

On today’s Israel Uncensored, Josh Hasten discusses the three-staged ceasefire proposal between Israel and Hamas, laid out by U.S. president Joe Biden. Hasten says that bottom line, the plan would leave the Hamas terrorist organization afloat, and in control of Gaza. He says that Israel must not accept any type of agreement that does not meet Israel’s three conditions towards ending the war: the removal of Hamas from power, the return of the hostages, and the disarming of Gaza, so that it no longer poses a threat to the Jewish State.

ICJ Side with Hamas Evil

Even though the UN’s International Court of Justice (ICJ) issued an ambiguous ruling in regard to Israel’s military campaign in Rafah, the vote was applauded by Hamas, which says it all. Nevertheless, Israel’s government insists that no force in the world will prevent the IDF from defeating Hamas’ final four battalions in Rafah, and finishing off that terrorist organization. This story and all the latest news on this week’s Israel Uncensored with Josh Hasten.

Turning a Blind Eye to Terror Tunnels

The IDF this week revealed that troops discovered at least 50 tunnels leading from Egypt into Rafah. On today’s Israel Uncensored, Josh Hasten says that obviously the Egyptians knew that Hamas was importing weapons, literally under their noses, but failed to act. At the same time Egypt has reinforced their above ground border, not letting Gazans flee into their country. Nevertheless, the anti-Israel haters ignore Egypt (and Hamas) and blame the Jewish State for everything going on in Gaza.

Biden Administration Turns on Israel at the UN

This week, the United States, under President Joe Biden, abstained from an anti-Israel UN Security Council Resolution, thus allowing it to pass. The resolution, calling on an immediate ceasefire in Gaza, failed to condemn Hamas and failed to include an Israeli hostage release as part of the ceasefire. The fact that Hamas celebrated the passage of the (non-binding) resolution, says it all. Josh Hasten discusses this story, and all the latest news from Israel, on this week’s 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.

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.
