The World Is On Fire Thanks to Biden and Harris by Jeff Crouere

When President Donald Trump left office, there was peace throughout the world. Today, there are ongoing wars in several regions of the world and other conflicts could escalate into war at any time.

While Trump was President, Russia did not invade any countries, in contrast to what happened during the George W. Bush and Barack Obama administrations.

Obviously, Russian President Vladimir Putin noticed a vast difference once Joe Biden and Kamala Harris took over. Immediately, the United States military made a dramatic turn towards woke policies, which contributed to a huge decline in recruitment.

In August of 2021, the United States demonstrated tremendous weakness during the withdrawal of our military forces from Afghanistan. The debacle resulted in the death of 13 American military heroes and billions of dollars in military equipment left behind for the use of the Taliban terrorist regime.  

In addition, Biden and Harris abandoned the massive Bagram air base in Afghanistan. The base featured a 12,000-foot runway, a 50-room hospital, and 100 parking spots for fighter jets. In their haste to depart the facility, the United States military left behind 3.5 million items, including armored vehicles, weapons and ammunition.

Since our humiliating withdrawal, the Biden/Harris administration has rewarded the Taliban terrorists by sending $239 million in grants to “fake nonprofits” created to scam American taxpayers. According to a report by the Special Inspector General for Afghanistan Reconstruction, the funds were sent by the Biden/Harris State Department to 29 phony Taliban organizations.

While the Biden/Harris administration displayed such impotence and rewarded our enemies, Putin decided to invade Ukraine in 2022. Sadly, the bloody war is still raging.

Although Russia faced sanctions due to their invasion, both China and North Korea have shown steadfast support. During the Trump administration, China was reeling from severe tariffs and tough trade deals. During the Biden/Harris administration, China once again started to aggressively threaten Taiwan and display military adventurism throughout Asia.

As President, Donald Trump developed a good relationship with the dictator of North Korea, Kim Jong Un. In response, the belligerent behavior by the “Hermit Kingdom” subsided.

Unfortunately, upon the onset of the Biden/Harris administration, North Korea changed course and began firing “test” missiles toward their neighbors. The latest tests occurred several weeks ago and culminated in a missile carrying a “4.5-tonne” warhead.

North Korea is also furnishing military equipment to the Russians, while the Ukrainians are largely supported by the United States, which is supplying their military with more aid than the rest of the world combined.

After the latest congressional authorization, a total of $175 billion in American aid and military equipment has been sent to Ukraine. This funding will keep increasing with no end in sight if Kamala Harris is elected President. Fortunately, President Trump has vowed to end the war quickly if he is elected again.

Another accomplishment of the Trump presidency was the tough economic sanctions placed on Iran. This significantly impaired their ability to fund terrorist organizations, like Hamas and Hezbollah. Thus, Israel was not invaded during the Trump presidency.

In fact, while Trump was President, peace deals were signed between Israel and four Arab nations. These historic agreements, known as the Abraham Accords, were a remarkable step toward overall peace in the region.

Regrettably, this progress was halted in the Biden/Harris administration, which reduced economic sanctions on Iran. As the funds started flowing into the coffers of the radical mullahs in Iran, the world’s largest terrorism benefactor, their extremist Islamic proxies benefited as well.

One of these Islamic terrorist organizations, Hamas, attacked Israel on October 7, 2023. It was the worst terror attack on Israeli soil since the founding of the country in 1948. Hamas killed 1,200 innocent people, which was 31 times larger than the next most fatal attack against Israel in 1978.

In response, Israel attacked Hamas in the Gaza Strip and has had to respond to terrorist strikes from Hezbollah and the Houthis, other Iranian backed terrorist groups. For example, on July 27, 12 children were killed in a Golan Heights playground. Israel blames Hezbollah for the rocket attack. Prior to that incident, Hezbollah had killed 35 civilians and soldiers in missile strikes launched after the October 7 attack by Hamas.

In response, Israel killed Hezbollah commander, Fuad Shukr, in Lebanon. The next day, Hamas leader, Ismail Haniyeh, was killed by a bomb planted in a guesthouse in Tehran, Iran. In a terror attack labeled a “natural response” by Hamas, a Palestinian stabbed two Israelis to death and wounded two others in central Israel on Sunday.

The attacks against Israel by Iran and their proxies are expected to increase in the days ahead. An Iranian United Nations representative told CBS News that “Hezbollah will choose both broader and deeper targets and will not restrict itself solely to military targets and means.” This upcoming response to Israel is expected to be “more aggressive” than the rocket attacks that were launched on April 13 by Iran.

While the Middle East is on the threshold of regional war, the Biden/Harris administration has been unsuccessful in brokering a ceasefire settlement. In fact, this administration has been unable to negotiate for the release of the 120 hostages still being held by Hamas, including eight Americans.

Along with creating instability throughout the world, the Biden/Harris administration has allowed our southern border to be invaded by undocumented migrants from 177 of the 193 nations in the world.

This reversed the progress made by President Trump, who greatly reduced the flow of non-citizens into our country. Trump established sensible policies such as “Remain in Mexico,” constructed hundreds of miles of border wall and ended “Catch and Release.”

Under Biden and Harris, the Trump policies were canceled, and the proverbial red carpet was rolled out for people of the world to illegally enter our country. It is unknown how many of these non-citizens are terrorists, so the future threat to America is significant, another disturbing consequence of the Biden/Harris administration.
