Speaking from the Oval Office starting at 8 p.m. ET, Biden made the case to Americans that it’s vital to both global and U.S. national security to assist Israel as it responds to terror attacks by Hamas as well as to continue help for Ukraine as it fends off Russian invaders.
“Hamas and Putin represent different threads but they share this in common: They both want to completely annihilate a neighboring democracy,” Biden said, referring to the extremists and Russia’s president.
Biden said he knows the conflicts can seem distant and Americans might be asking why it’s vital to U.S. security interests that Israel and Ukraine succeed.
“History has taught us that when terrorists don’t pay a price for their terror, when dictators don’t pay a price for their aggression, they cause more chaos and debt and more destruction,” Biden said. “They keep going – and the cost and the threats to America and the world keep rising.”
Iran is Russia ally, hates Israel, want US to be occupied with this so it won’t pay attention to them and doesn’t want any agreement between Israel and Saudi Arabia.
Keep in mind Iran and Russia want to escalate this, but via proxy, they are of course not interested in direct fight.
oh yeah. I could totally see proxy shit.
