On Monday, PJ Media<\/a> posted an article about the Biden administration’s attempts to free the American hostages held captive in Gaza. While I agree that the American hostages should be freed, I also believe that the effort to free them should also be part of a larger effort to solve the problem of Hamas terrorism. Unfortunately, that is not the path the Biden administration has chosen.<\/p>\n

The article reports:<\/p>\n

It\u2019s a line we\u2019ve heard in countless movies and TV shows. Get the picture: a terrorist group hijacks a plane, kidnaps an American, or otherwise takes over something on U.S. soil, and the country\u2019s leaders are discussing what to do. Usually, the president or someone else in the administration says that inevitable line: \u201cWe do not<\/em> negotiate with terrorists!\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n

If we are to believe a report from NBC, that\u2019s not the case anymore. Or, as my colleague Ed Morrissey put it<\/a>: \u201cOld and busted<\/em>: America doesn’t negotiate with terrorists. New hotness<\/em>: We’d rather cut a deal with terrorists than support our ally.<\/em>\u201d<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

NBC is reporting<\/a> that the White House is ready to work on a deal to get five hostages back from Hamas along with the remains of three dead hostages while leaving Israel out of the loop:<\/strong><\/p>\n

The article also includes a screenshot of a Tweet illustrating another way the Biden administration is trying to undermine the Israeli government of Prime Minister Netanyahu.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>The article also notes:<\/p>\n

“Not only is this effort from Biden and Antony Blinken despicable, it’s incredibly stupid,” Ed Morrissey wrote. “They want to reward Hamas for the October 7 massacre and want to punish the Israelis for grasping its existential import.”<\/strong><\/p>\n

Add this to the growing list of Biden’s foreign policy failures. “I think he has been wrong on nearly every major foreign policy and national security issue over the past four decades,\u201d former Defense Secretary Robert Gates said of Biden<\/a> 10 years ago. Make that five decades because his treatment of Israel is shameful and wrong.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Genesis 12:3 states:<\/p>\n

And I will bless them that bless thee, and curse him that curseth thee: and in thee shall all families of the earth be blessed. (KJV)<\/strong>
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

The Biden administration might want to keep this in mind.<\/p>\n
