Debate Erupts on Israel-Hamas Conflict on Fox News

Ahmad Tibi, a veteran Arab-Israeli member of the Knesset and a political adviser to late Palestinian leader Yasser Arafat, has faced intimidation tied to cycles of violence between Israel and Palestinian militant factions. Israel's ferocious bid to destroy the Hamas militant group in the besieged Gaza Strip and the occupied West Bank has led to the threats against Tibi and his family. The intimidation has been ongoing and is continuous. Members of the Fox News panel hosted by Harris Faulkner went off the rails during a debate about President Joe Biden's handling of the Israel-Hamas War. Former Obama administration spokesperson Marie Harf and former Oklahoma State House Speaker T.W. Shannon went head-to-head as Shannon argued there is a “civil war within the Democrat Party” between “the pro-Hamas caucus” and “failed president” Biden. The conversation started to get heated when Harf brought up Trump, noting the upcoming election will likely be a choice between the former president and Biden. Antisemitic incidents in the U.S. have risen about 400% in the aftermath of the Oct. 7, 2023 Hamas massacre, according to the Anti-Defamation League (ADL). Based on such data, the Biden administration should have a wake-up call on the severity of contemporary antisemitism. A resounding wake-up call arrived on New Year’s Day from Armenia, a country that is seemingly absent from Washington’s assessment of today’s global wave of Jew-hatred. In the US, there have been more than 160 attacks by Iranian proxies causing deaths and injuries to Americans on top of American hostages in Gaza since October 7, 2023. President 46 may be unaware of that fact when he told Iran and its proxies “Don’t.” Israel must eradicate Hamas. Biden and Blinken are interfering with Israel’s appropriate and normal response. If 45 and 46 face off again, 46 needs a foreign policy “win” after giving us Afghanistan, Ukraine, 20% inflation, open borders, 10+ million invaders, a Middle East shooting war, and October 7. Rewarding murderers and rapists with a terrorist state would add to 46’s long list of foreign policy failures. Dennis Prager, a Rhodes scholar, host of a nationwide radio talk show, and nationally acclaimed lecturer, is someone who has devoted his life to writing and speaking about moral issues and the importance of character. He, along with a host of conservative intellectuals, support Trump, because a president’s achievements and accomplishments for the nation are far more important than his character. Many millions of Americans believe the same.
