The Biden Administration’s abstention allowing the UN Security Council Resolution 2728 to pass already is having ramifications on both the US and Israel. These are both spiritual and physical. For example, within hours after the US betrayed Israel with the UN abstention, a major disaster occurred when the Francis Scott Key Bridge to the Baltimore Harbor collapsed after a freighter hit it. Bolstered by the UN resolution, the terrorist group Hamas, who started the war against Israel, upped its demands for a ceasefire for hostages deal. Israel withdrew from the negotiations. How is it that the UN Security Council, mostly comprised of enemies of Israel can determine what’s best for the security of that nation?
Resolution 2728 demanded an “immediate ceasefire for the month of Ramadan respected by all parties leading to a lasting sustainable ceasefire, and also demands the immediate and unconditional release of all hostages, as well as ensuring humanitarian access to address their medical and other humanitarian needs, and further demands that the parties comply with their obligations under international law in relation to all persons they detain.” In other words, the UN predicated a ceasefire on the Islamic holiday of Ramadan and demanded that Israel submit to the holiday with a ceasefire. Notwithstanding, the Hamas terrorists violated the resolution by increasing their conditions for releasing hostages, which included Israel releasing convicted terrorists and murderers from prison.
In his book “Eye to Eye: Facing the Consequences of Dividing Israel,” author and friend Bill Koenig draws the correlation that when the United States takes action to pressure Israel to divide her land major natural, economic or political disaster follows within 24-48 hours. He documents this phenomena over the last 30 years. It is irrefutable. When you consider what has happened in Israel in the Hamas attack and all the subsequent violence here in the US driven by hate for Jews and Israel, the actions of Joe Biden favoring the terrorists against Israel have taken their toll in so many ways. His pressure in November 2023, a month after the Hamas terror attack, suggesting the restoration of control of Gaza to the terrorist-backed Palestinian Authority was followed by violence and demonstrations by pro-terrorists against Jews. Now the Baltimore bridge.
God tells Abram in Genesis 12:2-3, “And I will make of you a great nation, and I will bless you, and make your name great; and you shall be a blessing: And I will bless them that bless you, and curse him that curses you: and in you shall families of the earth be blessed.” And so throughout history those who blessed Israel were blessed and those who cursed Israel were cursed. This promise is one that can be traced throughout not only the texts of the Bible, but also through the texts of historical accounts written by many across the ages. From the empire of Babylon to the Roman Empire to Nazi Germany, those who blessed Israel and its people were blessed and those who cursed them were cursed. Biden’s relentless policies supporting terrorists while giving lip service to supporting Israel is…say it with me…Stupidocrisy.
