Biden's Forgotten the Atrocities of October 7—But Israelis Can't

[Social Media]

 

On October 7, a tragic series of events unfolded that left an indelible mark on the people of Israel. However, according to former United Nations ambassador and GOP presidential candidate Nikki Haley, President Joe Biden and many Western politicians seem to have forgotten the gravity of that day.

 

Haley recently visited Israel and spoke with survivors of the Hamas attack. One of them, Tali, was at the Nova music festival when terrorists struck. By sheer luck, she found a place to hide and escaped immediate detection.

 

Yet, she could not escape the horrors around her. Tali heard the desperate screams, the pleas for mercy, and the gunshots that silenced them. When the attackers left, she emerged to a scene of unimaginable carnage: friends and fellow attendees were butchered, many women had been raped, and some had their genitals mutilated. As a nurse, Tali tried to help the survivors, offering what care and comfort she could in the aftermath.

 

Haley also visited Nir Oz, a kibbutz now in ruins, where terrorists had tortured and burned alive its residents. These attackers have vowed to strike again, making it crucial, Haley argues, for Israel to finish its mission in Gaza, defeat Hamas, and secure the release of hostages, including eight Americans, five of whom are confirmed alive.

 

Despite these harrowing realities, Haley criticizes President Biden and some Congress members for withholding weapons from Israel and imposing diplomatic and economic punishments. She is particularly incensed by calls for a cease-fire, which she equates with defeat. Such a pause, she argues, would allow Hamas to regroup and continue its mission of destroying Israel.

 

For Haley, the memories of October 7 are visceral. She recalls the devastation: burned houses, the smell of ash and death, and the testimonies of survivors. This firsthand experience solidifies her belief that supporting Israel is vital to preventing further atrocities both in Israel and potentially in the United States.

Hamas is still holding American hostages. We should be talking about that every single day.

Haley contends that Biden is failing both America and Israel by not adequately confronting the threats posed by Hamas, Hezbollah, the Houthis, and especially Iran. She accuses Biden of enabling Iran, a nation she claims is on the brink of developing a nuclear bomb and which continues to funnel rockets to terrorist groups. Haley argues that Iran's ambitions and its open hostility towards Israel and the U.S. necessitate a strong partnership with Israel.

 

Moreover, Haley believes that international bodies like the International Criminal Court and the International Court of Justice, which call for Israel to stop fighting, should be sanctioned. She argues that punishing these entities, alongside stringent sanctions on Iran, is crucial for global security.

During my time at the UN, we knew UNRWA was using American taxpayer money to teach hate in schools. It's why we eliminated their funding. Biden gave the money back without demanding a single reform.

Now we know:

Haley's visit to Israel and her interactions with survivors like Tali reinforce her conviction that Israel's victory is essential for justice and security. She draws parallels between the events of October 7 and the September 11 attacks in the U.S., emphasizing that the memories of those atrocities should compel leaders to act decisively.
