If Mitch McConnell cares about Israel, why didn't he support Donald Trump?
Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY) slammed far-left Democrats and Hamas on the Senate floor Monday, while praising Israel for its “precise and defensive response.”Unfortunately, Biden appears to have followed the bad narrative demanded by the most anti-Israeli Democrats. In any case, if McConnell really cared, why did he sell out Trump this past election? If Trump were still in office, chances are there'd be less of this crisis as we're seeing now. I'm sorry, but I can't take McConnell at face value. Certainly not until he apologizes publicly to Trump for the trouble he caused him.
McConnell also wanted to make it clear to President Joe Biden to “remain strong against the growing voices within his own party that create a false equivalence between terrorist aggressors and a responsible state defending itself.”
“Yesterday was the deadliest day yet in the continued fighting between the terrorist forces attacking Israel and Israel’s measured, precise, and defensive response,” McConnell said, standing up for Israel’s right to protect itself against aggression.
The Republican said Hamas has “unleashed another round of rocket barrages, intentionally targeting civilian areas across Israel.” During this time, Israel has had to fight back. In doing so, they have “intensified” their efforts in order to “destroy the terrorist group’s underground networks of weapons storage and command-and-control.”
McConnell continued to say, “No one is glad to see this fighting. But we are already seeing some push the false narrative that this conflict is a tragic dispute between two legitimate combatants where both sides share blame that is roughly equal.”
