#ourCOG The Drums of War :: By Bill Wilson
The Biden Administration’s foreign policy, like the Obama Administration’s, has made the world a much more dangerous place.
Sending “humanitarian” aid to Hamas, the Palestinian Authority, and the Houthis, knowing full well that this aid is used for weapons and unfreezing billions of dollars for Iran, has resulted in a terrorist uprising and horrible war against Israel. It has, like the Obama Administration, destabilized the Middle East and undermined peace initiatives of the Trump Administration.
Moreover, Biden’s recent action giving Ukraine permission to use US-provided weapons against Russian forces has escalated an already bad situation in the Ukraine-Russian war. Iran is reportedly also close to having nukes.
Reuters reported on May 31,
“Biden administration officials say the latest decision, which went into effect on Thursday, was narrowly tailored to the battle in the Kharkiv region. U.S. officials say it allows Kyiv to use U.S.-supplied weapons to fire back against Russian forces “attacking them or preparing to attack them” from across the border. That gives Ukrainians on the frontlines a green light to fire over the border at Russian forces using U.S.-supplied High Mobility Artillery Rocket System (HIMARS) launchers armed with Guided Multiple Launch Rocket System (GMLRS) missiles and other weaponry, experts say.”
In fact, Ukraine also received permission from Germany to use its weapons against Russia, with The Netherlands, Finland, and Poland also expressing support.
The Russian news agency Tass reported on June 3,
Moscow is warning Washington against ill-considered steps, the consequences of which could be fatal, said Russian Deputy Foreign Minister Sergei Ryabkov, commenting on Kyiv’s permission to strike Russia with American weapons. “I would like to warn American officials against miscalculations that could have fatal consequences. For some unknown reason, they underestimate the seriousness of the rebuff they could receive,” Ryabkov said.
Even Pro-Ukraine Republican Hawks take issue with how Biden went about giving Ukraine permission to use US weapons against Russia.
House Intelligence Committee Chairman Mike Turner (R-OH), Armed Services Committee Chairman Mike Rogers (R-AL), and House Foreign Affairs Committee Chairman Mike McCaul (R-TX) said in a joint statement,
“By leaking to the press that the policy reversal only applies to certain U.S.-provided weapons in a limited area within Russia, the administration has telegraphed to Russia exactly how to effectively adapt to this change in policy, thereby decreasing the military effectiveness of the decision.”
Proverbs 14:16 says, “A wise man fears and turns from evil, but a fool is careless and reckless.”
The drums of war are beating around fires on many fronts. And Biden is wobbling with a bucket of kerosene to pour on burning embers.
