The Washington Post reports that “after months of U.S. insistence that Ukraine did not need F-16s to fight its war with Russia, Washington finally relented to pressure, agreeing not to stop allied nations from sending Kyiv the advanced Western fighter jets it has long desired.”
In other news, I hear that apparently, the Biden WH is considering replacing their Biblically awful ambassador to Israel, with a Levi-Strauss heiress who has participated in BDS activities and who refers to Israel's founding as a catastrophe. That is apparently how bad things are at this WH, which obscenely continues to receive the support of many Jewish former "neo-Cons," and apparently does not remotely have any sense of decency or propriety when it comes to the subject of Israel. Someone should teach the administration how to show at least a modicum of respect to an American allied nation, and the erstwhile neo-Cons who have cowardly aligned themselves with these people should be the first to say something, or forever hang their heads in shame, and ideally not be accepted to polite company. I have frequently seen complaints from the likes of Bill Kristol about the admin's hesitancy in providing certain offensive weapons systems to Ukraine. Very well. Unlike the author here, however, I've yet to see Kristol register a hint of complaint at the admin's Iran policy, or this recurrence of the Obama administration's abominable habit, of treating the State of Israel like an enemy.
The reason Biden’s foreign policy looks like Obama’s is because IT IS Obama’s foreign policy. This is Obama’s 3rd term.
