Blinken to Congress: We must both defend Israel and aid Palestinian civilians
In op-ed, Secretary of State urges members of Congress to support defense aid to Israel.
Israel National News

US Secretary of State Antony Blinken on Tuesday published an op-ed in The Washington Post in which he urged members of Congress to support the budget for defense aid to Israel. In the column, Blinken said that the US should not have to choose between defending Israel and aiding Palestinian Arabs, but should do both things.

“From the moment Hamas slaughtered more than 1,400 people in Israel, including at least 35 US citizens, and took more than 230 hostages, President Biden has consistently affirmed Israel’s right — indeed, its obligation — to defend itself and prevent Hamas from carrying out such an attack ever again,” he wrote.

What a moron.

Let me rephrase that statement: Let's help our "friends" the Israelis while also hamstringing them by helping their enemies.

and preserve the sole viable path to lasting peace and security for Israelis and Palestinians: two states for two peoples,” wrote the Secretary of State.

The above from article.
*Peace and Security
*2 States
This as Israel is at war

Yall it gives me chills. I can't help but wonder what these events will lead up to.

Agree with @DanLMP ....Blinkin is asking the impossible.

Typical politician trying to appease both sides telling them what they want to hear.

"...preserve the sole viable path to lasting peace and security for Israelis and Palestinians: two states for two peoples..."

I don't know why but it still always perplexes me as to why so many are blind to prophecy, even unbelievers. I would say most Americans have had some sort of exposure to the Bible and somewhere along the line they were introduced to end times topics, Armageddon, etc. But I also understand spiritual blindness as well. Many do not have eyes to see or ears to hear.

It's sad and frustrating. But the Word says, "The natural person does not accept the things of the Spirit of God, for they are folly to him, and he is not able to understand them because they are spiritually discerned." (1 Cor. 2:14)
