On Saturday night there was a direct and ferocious attack on Israel from Iran. An attack without precedent or parallel. But Biden doesn't want Israel to respond with a counterattack.
'I don’t like you because you're gonna get me killed.'Zeus’ summation to John McClane in 1995’s 'Die Hard With A Vengeance' is the essence of the 'Trump Doctrine' critique of the 'Biden Doctrine.'The former holds 'Strike at America and America will hit you twice as hard; strike at our allies and we will support them in as many ways as we can.'The Biden Doctrine, developed in the crushing pressure of all-nighter Model U.N.
Those are the sure things. But the counter-factuals are all too obvious and the former president is campaigning on them and rightly so: Putin would not have invaded Ukraine a second time. America would continually be reminding the world that CCP negligence most likely unleashed COVID and all the disasters it has wrought on the world. The United States Navy would be at 300 ships and rising.
would be building submarines Down Under. And, crucially, the 1,200 Israelis slaughtered and 5,000 wounded on 10/7 would be alive as would the 260-plus IDF killed in Gaza, nor would three American soldiers based in Jordan be dead or the Red Sea a war zone with American warships under constant attack. The north of Israel would not be emptied of civilians and the north of Gaza would not be leveled.
What should Americans feel? Scorn for the Model U.N. mindset dominating the National Security Council now and the Yale Debate chops of National Security Advisor Jake Sullivan and his 'once-in-a-generation intellect. Scorn for Secretary of State Blinken daring to warn Israel that it risked becoming 'indistinguishable' from Hamas.
