After neutralizing most of the Hamas threat from Gaza, Israel’s operation to decapitate Hezbollah in Lebanon has proven to be another successful exercise in delivering justice to terrorists — many with American blood on their hands in addition to Israeli. Each terrorist brought to justice by Israel, and each loss dealt to the terrorists’ backers in Tehran is a gift to the Western world that supposedly stands with Israel athwart radical Islamic terror. Yet the West keeps trying to stop Israel from taking out our common enemies that slobber at the thought of violently overthrowing all free, liberalized democracies.
Hamas in Gaza and Hezbollah in Lebanon are just two fronts from which Israel has faced assaults in the year since Hamas’ October 7, 2023 attack. Israel has responded with swift justice, strong deterrence, and tactical precision, the likes of which haven’t been exhibited by the United States or other Western nations supposedly allied in the fight against radical extremist terrorists and the Iranian regime. Still, these nations’ mostly “progressive” leaders condemn Israel for preventing its violent demise.
In addition to inexplicably slow-walking military aid to Israel at certain points in the time since 10/7, Biden repeatedly told Israel not to respond to the first direct attack launched on the Jewish State by Iran in April. Why wouldn’t, with plainly apparent justification, the United States support our lone ally in the region responding decisively? Iran and its terrorist proxies have long targeted the United States and its people in addition to Israel, yet the Biden-Harris administration treats degrading Iran and its terrorists’ ability to carry out attacks as a bad thing.
Many have seemingly forgotten, but from the time of the Islamic revolution in Iran until 9/11, Hezbollah murdered more Americans than any other terrorist organization. Sometimes referred to as the “A-Team” of terrorist organizations, Hezbollah is still ahead of even the Islamic State when it comes to Americans slaughtered by terrorists.

While Israel has done the work of risking its soldiers’ lives in order to take out the terrorist leaders who often chant “Death to America” in the same breath as “Death to Israel,” the Biden-Harris administration has told Israel to back down or hold their fire while genocidal lunatics attempt to murder Jews and erase Israel “from the river to the sea.”
You better not respond to terrorists attempting to bomb you to bits, the scolding from the West usually goes, and instead agree to what amounts to a negotiated surrender to the terrorists who won’t stop attempting October 7-style attacks as long as they have the ability to do so. A “Two-State Solution,” the leaders of the U.S. and other western governments say, is the only path toward peace they somehow insist can exist between the lone liberalized democracy in the Middle East and the bloodthirsty fanatics whose only goal is the murder of Jews and annihilation of the Jewish State and who have rejected every proposed version of statehood offered to them.
It’s become quite apparent, much to the antisemites’ dismay, that Israel can save itself from the terrorists and state foes encircling its land. But can Israel save the West before the West stops Israel?
The United States, for decades in some cases, had listed the Hezbollah leaders and terrorist attack masterminds responsible for murdering our citizens around the world on most-wanted lists and offered millions of dollars in bounties for their heads. Yet, it was Israel that finally delivered justice in recent weeks by decimating Hezbollah with precise targeting and brilliant movie-worthy plots involving pagers and other communication devices. Not only did Israel take out the terrorists wanted by the United States for their past evil acts, the IDF has — more than once now — prevented Hezbollah from reconstituting its leadership by taking out each emerging successor. That’s a good thing, folks, though such as point should be so obvious it doesn’t have to be made.
It is also Israel that has responded decisively to attacks launched by the Houthis in Yemen while the United States and other Western allies refused to meaningfully counter the terrorists’ months-long campaign targeting shipping traffic and even U.S. warships transiting the Red Sea. Attempts at a Biden-Harris U.S.-led coalition in the region to stop the attacks failed spectacularly, primarily because the United States and its allies refused to take the strong and decisive actions routinely displayed by the Israelis.
Israel has carried out multiple strikes that eliminated terrorists wanted by the United States and targeted the leaders actively engaged in attacking and killing Americans and citizens of other Western nations. The general response from the West? Not a “Thank you.” Not “How can we help you continue neutralizing these targets?” Quite the opposite.
Instead, many of the Western countries benefitting from Israel’s efforts are cutting off weapons sales to the Jewish State. Canada, the United Kingdom, Belgium, Italy, and Spain are among those who supposedly value freedom but have taken action to limit military aid to Israel as it fights for survival against terrorists and nations who’d gladly attack any targets in the West.
Placating terrorist-sympathizing “social justice” warriors, apparently, trumps eliminating the faces of evil in the modern world that wish to conquer the West, eradicate liberalized democracies, and replace freedom with brutally enforced Islamic theocracy.
Israel ought to be hailed for neutering Hamas and Hezbollah and scaring Tehran enough that leaders are reportedly hiding out and only communicating with some of its once fearsome proxies via snail mail. In doing so, Israel is actively countering the danger created by Biden-Harris and other Western leaders’ foolhardy decisions to treat Iran as anything but an evil empire.
With weak and rudderless leaders stumbling around the West, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is effectively locked in a war to save not just his own country but also one to secure a brighter, safer future for the West as a whole — if the West doesn’t stop Israel from doing so.
