Israel is in a terrible spot. The US under Biden continues to provide it the weaponry and "permission" to parry the threat but outright refuses to let it eliminate the threat. This is Biden. Who he is. Who the Democrats are. They are weak appeasers and our enemies have taken our measure. And we are forcing Israel to act weakly as well. It may or may not change if Trump becomes president but I sure wouldn't count on it. Israel must (and it pains me deeply to say this) disengage from the American bear hug (term used by the moderate Israeli editor Michael Horovitz today) or it is doomed.
In the great John Ford film The Quiet Man, one of the Irish Catholic characters (Victor McLaglen, annoyed at his pastor (Ward Bond) snaps at his priest, "Well I'll join the Church of Ireland" (Irish Episcopal). Bond snaps back "As if they'd have you."
The Biden Administration hates that the Israeli elected leader is "far"right wing so they can't make up their minds and flip flop every so often in their support. They are trying to keep both Muslim and Jewish voters voting Democrat so that also explains their flip flopping.

I agree with you completely.
And one doesn’t need to be Jewish to see things as clearly as you do

That explains a lot. Whenever Notre Dame would lose my grandfather would say that, “The referees were Episcopalian!” 😆
