OPINION—The enemy is at the gate. One need only look at the Iranian-backed genocide in Israel to see what they have in store for this country if their plans succeed.
Clearly, Joe Biden helped get us into this dire situation.
- Biden allowed millions of military-age males to enter this country illegally, including hundreds on the terror watch list. You could see them rallying yesterday in major cities across the United States, celebrating the terrorist atrocities in Israel.
- Biden ignored Iranian sanctions and allowed them to generate more than $40 billion in oil revenue, which they used to fund their terror campaigns. And then he gave them $6 billion more in an ill-conceived ransom payment.
- Biden gifted the terrorists in Afghanistan more than $7 billion in military equipment, including aircraft, armored vehicles, explosives, small arms and ammunition. Time will tell if these weapons are being used against Israeli Defense Forces.
- While he was arming terrorists, Biden used every trick in the book to disarm law-abiding Americans. He even created an office in the White House to coordinate his plans for total civilian disarmament.
In fact, when you look at the totality of his actions, it makes you wonder whose side Biden is even on.
Credible Threat
The MOSSAD, the Israeli Institute for Intelligence and Special Operations, warned New York, Michigan and Florida to prepare for coming terrorist violence.
“We again ask for Jews around the world to be careful. This warning extends to western nations: England, Canada (Toronto), Germany, France, USA (NY. MI. FL.)” the intelligence organization wrote in a tweet. “Keep your cellphone handy and your eyes open.”
Florida has already seen two pro-Hamas demonstrations in Tampa and Ft. Lauderdale, which Gov. Ron DeSantis called “abhorrent.”
“Hamas is a terrorist group that is dedicated to the destruction of Israel and commits atrocities to further that end,” DeSantis said in a social media post. “We are proud of the relationship between Florida and Israel and remember well the support we received from the IDF following the Surfside tower collapse.”
Across the country, law enforcement has increased security at synagogues and other Jewish sites.
“If war is what is needed to make the state of Israel safe, war it is,” said Maor Elbaz-Starinsky, Consul General of Israel in Miami. “We look at Hamas as a very cruel and vicious terrorist organization.”
Make Ready
We are the well-regulated militia the Framers had in mind when they wrote the Second Amendment. It is time to accept that responsibility.
You’ll need a good rifle; a handgun too is recommended. You’ll need ammunition stored in magazines, since ammo in a cardboard box will do you little good. You’ll also need training – professional training. Find an instructor who understands how to shoot, move and communicate.
If you’re already armed, equipped and tactically fluent, your job is far from done. Talk to your friends, family and neighbors. Help them gain the means and the mindset to successfully defend themselves.
We are incredibly fortunate to have the Second Amendment, which prohibits the government from infringing upon our right to keep and bear arms. We all realized this as we watched the atrocities in Israel unfold. We must continue to safeguard this basic human right. Civilians in Israel had no such protections, and ultimately paid a high price. They are receiving their gun rights now, after the fact – in many cases too late.
Joe Biden didn’t even mention American casualties Sunday evening. He hosted a barbecue at the White House instead, complete with a live band. That’s about all we can expect from our doddering commander-in-chief. It doesn’t really matter since all of his gun control plans became moot Saturday, as dozens of terrorist paratroops drifted down under canopy, like the opening scene from Red Dawn.
We will never allow that to happen here – with or without Biden’s help. We will help each other make ready, and we will defend ourselves.
It’s what Americans do.
