My primer on Israel for a Republican Senate candidate vs a Democrat who supported Obama's Iran deal

Middle East Issues: Trump is doing the OPPOSITE of Obama/Donnelly and the world is much better off.

1.       IRAN: Trump NIXED the catastrophic Obama Iran deal that Donnelly (and almost all Democrats in Congress) supported.   https://www.wthr.com/article/donnelly-announces-he-supports-obamas-iran-nuclear-deal

https://nypost.com/2015/09/05/how-bad-is-the-iran-deal-lets-count-the-ways/  https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2018-05-09/trump-warns-iran-of-severe-consequence-if-nuclear-work-resumes

a.       All our other Middle East allies vehemently opposed this deal.

b.      It was never submitted to Congress as a treaty, as it should have been.

c.       It was never signed by Iran http://www.dailymail.co.uk/…/State-Department-says-Iran-NEV

d.      It had many secret side deals not disclosed by Obama/Kerry

e.      It gave $150 billion back to Iran which they have used to spread terror everywhere. They now have set up shop in Syria, control Lebanon through Hezbollah with 250,000 missiles there, they finance Hamas etc. They have set up bases in Latin America. I told Donnelly about it. He said he didn’t know and “would look into it”.

f.        They have never stopped shouting : “death to America. Death to Israel”

g.       They proudly say Israel will be gone within 25 years

h.      Obama sunsetted Iran’s ability to build nuks and ICBMs within a decade

i.         He allowed them 24 days notice before inspections and allowed them to deny access to inspectors at their most important plant.

j.        Obama told Iran he’d defend THEM vs attack from Israel. Trump gave Israel weapons it needs to fight Iran. https://www.israelnationalnews.com/News/News.aspx/198565

2.       Palestine

a.       Before 1900 the term was only used about Jews. Romans changed the name of Judea to Palestine 2000 years ago. Arabs coopted the term only to undermine Israel. Arab leader admits there is no such thing as “Palestinian people. http://www.danielpipes.org/comments/18157

b.      P.A. (Palestinian Authority) refuses to accept Jewish state in any form

c.       Their goal has always been the replacement of the Jewish state, not living side-by-side. PLO begun in 1964, when Jordan controlled west bank and Egypt Gaza.

d.      Hamas explicitly calls for Israel’s destruction and Jews killed. Iran supports them. The sent 40,000 people to break through border to fence with goal of killing Jews. They send burning kites over fence which burn Israeli fields. They shoot rockets to kill Israelis. Bernie Sanders blames Israel for defending itself.

e.      Palestinians continue to lie, denying Jewish ties to Israel. Read the Bible. Their school curriculum emphasized hatred of Jews. Their camps teach terrorism. They name streets after killers of Jews. They pay lifetime awards to killers of Jews. https://www.israelnationalnews.com/Articles/Article.aspx/21930

f.        OBAMA demanded Israel withdraw to Auschwitz “ (named by Abba Eban) lines of 1947-indefensible borders. He called Netanyahu “chickenshi…”. He spend millions to try and have Netanyahu defeated. His 2016 UN abstention vote against Israel called “Most anti-Semitic act in the world in 2016 by Simon Wiesenthal nazi Hunting organization. Donnelly supported Obama. https://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2016/dec/27/obama-refusal-israel-vote-most-anti-semitic-2016/

3.       Jerusalem recognized as capital : It has been the capital of Israel since King David bought it and named it such in 995 BCE. Until trump did it, Israel was the ONLY nation I the world whose self proclaimed capital was not recognized by US. Jerusalem is mMentioned 700X in Hebrew Bible. Never once in Quran. Only Israel has guaranteed all religions access to their holy Sites. Jordan destroyed the Jewish sites and turned the synagogues in Old City into horse stables before 67. Congress voted to recognize Jerusalem as capital decades ago, but only Trump did it. It will advance peace, not hurt it. It does not preclude having part of Jerusalem eventually as part of any Arab entity.

4.       Under Trump, State Dept. has stopped calling Judea/Samaria “occupied territory.” No one has better legal claim to it (West bank) as Israel. https://www.frontpagemag.com/fpm/209047/staking-out-israels-lawful-claims-west-bank-ari-lieberman

5.       Radical Islam. The leaders of many Arab nations, including El Sisis in Egypt, Saudi Arabia, Jordan etc., recognize the danger of radical islam. https://www.breakingisraelnews.com/27552/egypts-sisi-calls-revolution-radical-islam/  Trump is not opposed to Islam, just terrorists of Islam, as any reasonable person should be. Democrats give pass to them.

6.       Syria 500,000 dead. Obama drew RED LINE and then did nothing. Iran and Russia moved in under Obama and he did nothing. Trump sent missiles into Syria after they used chemical weapons and green lighted Israel destroying 50 Iranian bases there. https://www.mediaite.com/tv/media-becoming-repulsed-by-obama-ignoring-own-red-line-permitting-syrian-holocaust/

7.       Obama came into office saying he wanted to “put daylight” between US and Israel. He engaged in campaign to undercut Israel at every opportunity. Trump has done the opposite. He is a rock star in Israel and that makes peace more possible, not less. Pro Obama people say he gave Israel 10 year great deal. Israel does not like it because Obama precluded Israel from going back to Congress within the 10 years. https://www.usnews.com/opinion/articles/2016-09-20/us-israeli-aid-package-is-both-historic-and-problematic

Obama is also given credit for financing iron Dome. But he surreptitiously tried to CUT the funding 2x. http://freebeacon.com/national-security/lawmakers-slam-obama-budget-cuts-to-israeli-missile-defense/
