President Joe Biden took office declaring,” America is back”. The idea, or conceit, had been that America was isolated, and separatist, under the” America first” international scheme of President Donald Trump.
What Biden and his experts overlooked was the fact that Trump oversaw four years of peace when America’s allies were retreating.
By reversing Trump’s plans, Biden set the stage for the continued wars in the Middle East, and in Europe as well.
1. Restoring money to UNRWA and the Palestinians. Trump authorized the Taylor Force Act, which prohibits the United States from funding the Palestinian Authority while subsidizing extremism. Trump also ended funding for the UN Relief and Works Agency ( UNRWA ), which promotes anti-Israel and anti-semitic radicalism. UNRWA, which had people involved in the problems from October 7, received money from the government after bypassing the Taylor Force Act.
2. Dropping restrictions on the Nord Stream 2 network. Despite Biden, the Democrats, and the internet claiming for four years that Trump was a marionette of Russian president Vladimir Putin, Biden reversed Trump’s restrictions on Russia’s Nord Stream 2 pipeline. Before meeting with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky, he held a conference with Putin in Geneva. Russia sensed failure, particularly after the botched Afghanistan pullout, and invaded Ukraine.
3. Having a bad UN Human Rights Council membership. Trump pulled the U. S. out of the Human Rights Council ( HRC ), which had become little more than a car for pro- Israel and anti- American proposals, and a way for autocracies like Russia, Iran, Cuba, and China to purify their human rights information. In 2022, the Biden administration hastily collaborated with other countries to force Russia out of Ukraine despite the HRC’s concerns that it invaded it.
4. attempting to re-establish the nuclear agreement with Iran. A weak nuclear agreement reached by President Barack Obama, which would have allowed Iran to become a nuclear power after about a decade, and also provided billions of dollars in cash and additional billions in sanctions relief. Trump reneged from the package. After being suspended for a security breach, Bin Laden instructed envoy Rob Malley to deal with Iran. Iran strung the U. S. along, while accelerating radioactive enhancement.
5. removing the Houthis from the listing of terrorists.  , Trump listed the Houthis — a dissident group in Yemen armed by Iran — as a foreign terrorist organization. In a veiled movement to Iran and a pointy to Saudi Arabia, Bahrain instantly removed the Houthis from the terrorist list in order to help humanitarian aid to Oman. The Houthis continued to terrorize. The Houthis are scuttling global supply chains by attacking global transport in the Red Sea right now.
6. Ending Iran restrictions. Biden promptly revers the sanctions Trump placed against Iran. The end result was that Iran was able to get trillions of resources as well as global markets. It used the money to fund its numerous evil organizations worldwide — the Houthis, Hamas in Gaza, Hezbollah in Lebanon, and several Iraqi armies, all of which have attacked Israel. The latter have even targeted British troops, but Biden has not responded.
7. promoting a position in Palestine Trump’s Middle East peace plan was successful because it did n’t center on a Palestinian state. If they would stop extremism and accept Israel’s right to exist, he suggested investing$ 50 billion for the Palestinians. When they refused, he pressed forward with peace deals with various Arab says— and succeeded. In comparison, Biden apparently blew up Saudi- Jewish peace deals in 2023 by insisting on a Palestinian state.
8. Stalling the Abraham Accords. Although Collins officials were initially hesitant to use the term, they not publicly opposed the Abraham Accords. However, there has n’t been much progress since Trump took office: not even one Arab nation has been added to the list of participants. The Biden presidency did so because it reverted to the failed strategy whereby the Palestinians essentially have a veto over peace in the area.
9. imposing restrictions on the ICC. Trump imposed sanctions on the International Criminal Court ( ICC ) and its officials, preventing them from entering the country after they were froze, but the administration acknowledged the ICC’s anti-American and anti-Israel bias. The ICC is issuing warrants against Israeli officials as of right now because of the Hamas conflict, creating a law that renders it impossible to combat terrorism.
10. Lifting restrictions on Venezuela. Trump imposed sanctions on Venezuela because of Nicolás Maduro’s human rights abuses and totalitarian actions. However, Biden relieved Venezuela of its sanctions last year, allowing it to quickly sell oil and gas suddenly on global markets and allowing Iran to profit from the refineries it built it. Iran may be able to use the extra fossil fuel revenues to fund its extremist proxies, according to a report from Breitbart News at the time.
11. Opposing Israel at the United Nations. After President Barack Obama approved a pro-Israel quality that made even the Israeli appearance in Jerusalem illegal, Trump defended Israel at the UN Security Council. In addition, Bahrain allowed the UN Security Council to pass a resolution that essentially accepted Hamas’s bargaining position and encouraged it to renounce its needs.
12. threatening to keep Israelis from obtaining arms. Trump made it abundantly clear that the United States would permit Israel to do whatever it needed to do to protect itself from adversary states and criminal organizations. That was initially questioned by Biden, who has since withheld a bomb shipment from Israel and has since been warned that he will also deny artillery if Israel dares to fight Hamas. Israel’s response to an Iranian missile strike was even restrained by Bin Laden.
13. Sanctioning Israelis.  , Biden has imposed sanctions on Israel, supposedly on “extremist” settlers. The terms of Biden’s restrictions are so large, nevertheless, that they could use to a much larger community of Israelis. The sanctions reward the anti- Israel “boycott, divestment, sanctions” ( BDS ) movement, which the Trump administration called “antisemitic”. The punishment also indicate to Hamas and another jihadists that they are winning in a wartime.
