While Israel has made mistakes during this war, one of the largest was listening to its "ally," the US, and not going into Rafah. The Biden administration has tried to sabotage Israel's efforts since early on, and they're still doing it. They are as cowardly as can be when it comes to listening to their Progressives, and pandering to their Dearborn voters. They sing the same song that they have not changed their policy towards their ally, Israel, but, but, but, but. There's always a but and my but is, why haven't Biden and his admin been able to bring back American hostages? Hamas only said a few weeks ago they would negotiate a hostage release but needed six weeks to locate them. (If that is to be believed) They sanction Israeli settlers and now want to sanction a unit of the IDF. How about sanctioning Iran? Of course not. They had lifted those sanctions that had been in place and then rewarded them by releasing their money. They gave Iran a heads up when striking the Houthis, and that was short-lived. They seem to be protecting Iran and their proxies more than Israel, their ally. Say what you will about Trump, but this would not have happened. Rafah should have been completed long ago and the focus on Hezbollah. Biden is proving with his actions that he is not a friend to Israel and those actions are trickling down to the anti-Israel sentiment we are seeing on a daily basis in the US. Along with the money that has been spread around into every sector of our society in the US, and the favors that must be paid back because of it, the snake has now grown many heads. I only hope it will not be allowed to grow any more.

Great essay, Joshua. I agree with the points made by Caroline Glick as well as yours. And Israel should be acting swiftly to restore and improve its weapons manufacturing capabilities in house.
