The tweet from the Republican Jewish Coalition says it all. The Democrat Party is antisemitic, pro-jihad. American Jews must stop supporting this party. By the way, despite the fact that Lebanon provides a home for Hezbollah, Israel was one of the first countries to offer humanitarian assistance after yesterday’s explosions in Beirut. You won’t hear that from the Democrats and much of the MSM.
This is what it looks like when a a party starts casting aside all of its pro-Israel members to win the support of the pro-BDS radical Left.

Democrats Gutted Anti-Hezbollah Legislation Days Before Attack on Israel
By The Free Beacon, August 4, 2020
Story continues below advertisementJust days before the Iranian-funded terror group Hezbollah waged a terrorist attack on Israel’s northern border, congressional Democrats gutted legislation that would have halted U.S. funding to the Lebanese military, which is almost entirely controlled by the terror group.
Congress has been working on legislation that would slash millions in American taxpayer funding to the Lebanese Armed Forces (LAF), which has long been under Hezbollah’s thumb. Republican lawmakers in both the House and Senate have been pushing to cut this funding for some time, arguing that U.S. aid should not be sent to an institution known to conduct attacks against Israel on Iran’s behalf.
While the original bill had bipartisan support in both chambers, House Democrats recently attached an amendment to their version of the legislation that nixed the funding cut. Other GOP amendments that would have strengthened the legislation and pushed the LAF to isolate Hezbollah from its forces were also struck down by the Democrat-led House.
The House last week passed a watered-down version of the bill that leaves the LAF funding fully intact. The wrangling over the legislation came just days before Hezbollah launched a foiled attack on Israel from southern Lebanon, where the LAF and international forces have been tasked with stopping such terror strikes. Republican congressional sources who spoke to the Washington Free Beacon accused House Democrats of standing in the way of a major reform effort that could have forced the LAF to eradicate Hezbollah from its ranks or face a cutoff in U.S. aid dollars.
U.S. funding to the LAF has been a flashpoint for some time. As Hezbollah increases its force presence on Israel’s northern border and stockpiles sophisticated Iranian-made arms, GOP leaders in Congress have pressured the Trump administration to take action. The State Department, like congressional Democrats, has championed the aid, with Secretary of State Mike Pompeo telling the Free Beacon earlier this year that funding to the LAF remains a priority. Republicans, however, view the aid as a tool to force Lebanon into ridding itself of Hezbollah’s influence.
The Countering Hezbollah in Lebanon’s Military Act of 2019 was passed out of a House committee late last week without key portions that would have conditioned U.S. aid to the LAF, effectively barring it from receiving money until it cleanses its ranks of Hezbollah forces. Outgoing representative Eliot Engel (D., N.Y.) sponsored an amendment to the bill striking all language that would have cut the LAF’s aid dollars. The final version now requires the State Department to issue a report detailing ways in which the United States can stop Hezbollah’s smuggling of arms along its border with Israel.

Meanwhile, Hezbollah is now the prime suspect in the Beirut bombing. They had the means, the motive, and the opportunity to ignite their own explosives. The Israeli ‘Intelli Times’ notes that Ammonium Nitrate [AN] is a favorite of Hezbollah, and they have used it in many terrorist attacks, worldwide. Once the Lebanese confiscated a shipment in 2014, Hezbollah kept it. Hezbollah bombers have been caught with AN on multiple occasions, and one Hezbollah bomber is known to have received his AN supply from Beirut. Furthermore, AN can be used as a solid fuel rocket propellant. Hezbollah is known to be in control of the Beirut port.
And since Hezbollah was in danger of being expelled from the Lebanese government, they have a motive to cause a massive setback to the country.
Means: They owned the Ammonium Nitrate, they control the building and port
Motive: To paralyze the Lebanon government
Opportunity: To ignite the stuff whenever they wanted.

Israel can be the quintessential Good Samarian and it won’t make any difference in the long run. At best you will see temporary alliances for what other countries can get from them for free while stabbing Israel in the back when their support matters the most.
If Trump does get a second term, the Never Trumpers and globalist temper tantrums will accelerate. If Trump does not get in for a second term, they will move at lightning speed to get their agenda back on track. The gloves will be off. There will be no restraint. They won’t let the moment slip away.
An increased animosity toward Christians and Jewish people will increase (and already is). Freedoms (including religious freedom) will be trampled upon even more if we don’t stand up. Aside from divine intervention, we are in for some tough times in America.
Social liberals though will be happy! Being against LBGTQ+ will become a crime inthe U.S. too. It’s already happening in the U.K.. It’s called “hate speech” and punishable. Last I checked Jews and Christians shared God’s view on that – or at least they are supposed to….but they’re too busy pretending they are just like normal people and getting all sanctimonious about it. ! By pretending they are normal, they advance the LBGTQ+ agenda. Instead of pressing they get the psychological help they need to be normal – you never hear that from them. Ever! LBGTQ+ aren’t and never will be normal.
These people can be turned around – it is a CHOICE to be an LBGTQ+ person.
Frankly I am not so vested in the temporal to forget the eternal is more important and that ALL of us as individuals will have to account for the life we lead as individuals. Excuses, misguided compassion and being politically correct etc. won’t cut it with God. It didn’t work out well for Sodom and Gomorrah either… Give God some thought….and what HIS teachings are. It is only through divine intervention that we could turn our country around. Trump is NOT your “savior”. He will just do what he can do.
Canada was ahead of the U.K. on this –
Supreme Court Rules Bible as ‘Hate Speech’ in Canada
The path of anti-Christian intolerance leads south of the Canadian border . . .
MONDAY, MARCH 18, 2013
The Supreme Court of Canada unanimously ruled that citizens are NOT free to quote the Bible regarding the sin of homosexual behavior. Bill Whatcott’s pamphlets (from 2001) using the word “sodomites,” and criticizing the Gay Agenda in public schools, were deemed to incite hatred against homosexual people. The ruling requires Whatcott to pay a fine to two homosexuals who claimed to be offended, plus six-figure loser-pays legal costs.

Ephesians 2:7-9 ~~ That in the ages to come he might shew the exceeding riches of his grace in his kindness toward us through Christ Jesus. For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: Not of works, lest any man should boast.
LBGTQ+ is a mental disorder!
Forget Israeli humanitarian aid on the News. They didn’t even show crawl on the bottom of the screen that there had been an explosion!

bravo!
GREAT ONE! GROUCHO MARX SAYS IT ALL! SUBSTITUTE “DEVIL” FOR GOD THEN WE SAY IT 100% RIGHT!
Institutionalized Terrorism
If, as several polls state, about 80% of Americans who claim to be Jewish, are still registered as dems, then, nothing that this demented party says or does will ever get these JINOs to leave it. I say, good riddance to the dem party and I can only hope that it loses both houses of congress and the presidency in November, so that Pres. Trump finally has the ability to fully enact his agendas.
Eliot Engel: despicable kapo ????????????
THIS IS TO ALL YOU DEMOCRATS OUT THERE, YOU LOUSY TREASONOUS SCUMBAGS WOULD SELLOUT YOUR OWN COUNTRY AND OUR ALLIES FOR PENNIES ON THE DOLLAR GUARANTEED. WE THOUGHT JUDAS WAS BAD BUT DEMOCRATS ARE THE WORST OF THE WORST. HUMAN SLIME . YOU’RE EVEN WORSE THAN THE BASTARDS WHO TOOK DOWN THE WORLD TRADE CENTER. SCUM OF THE EARTH.
