David, thank you for the Khazaria story. I learned something. I also know that Jews are genetically distinct in many ways, which is remarkable after a few thousand years.

Biden is also going to Jordan to meet with their king and emphasize that Hamas, not Palestine, is the problem.

I think he's trying to thread the needle in terms of bringing more Arab nations into supporting Israel's right to exist (likely without the West Bank) and the need for Palestinians and Arabs to remove the terrorists that are preventing peace (aimed at people like this https://x.com/hahussain/status/1713988491057459659?s=20).

I'll keep my fingers crossed that Biden and his team can pull it off, 'cause that's likely the fastest way to peace. I know it's unlikely.

Stick around. I have a 2pm post scheduled dealing with Biden and Israel. I agree with your take.

Unlikely because Hamas is just one of many problematic groups in the region. Wish it were not so

See the Tweet/X Post I attached: yes, they are but one of many terrorist groups (alongside the Islamic Republic of Iran [specifying this because just as not as Palestinians are Hamas, neither should we bundle all Iranians into the Islamic Republic]) that needs to be subverted and ultimately eliminated or otherwise made irrelevant.

"The smart move would be for sane Republicans to negotiate with moderate Democrats on a consensus candidate."

Finding smart Republicans who can be trusted not to completely give in to democrat demands and finding moderate democrats are both prodigious chores.
