Is Joe Biden Antisemitic? Sure Looks Like It.

Is Old Joe Biden antisemitic? Could he possibly be, hailing as he does from the party of love and tolerance? Of course, he could be. Leftists have repeatedly demonstrated that despite their ostentatious claims to have the moral high ground, they’re often more hateful than any of those whom they charge with “hate” could ever conceive of being. Why should the faux president be any different?

Religion, and specifically the differences between Christianity and Judaism, seems to weigh heavily on what’s left of Old Joe Biden’s mind whenever he thinks of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. Right after his combative, divisive, and mendacious State of the Union address last Thursday, the ostensible president was caught on a hot mic boasting that he had told Netanyahu that the two of them were going to have a “come to Jesus moment.” 

Nor was this the first time that Old Joe made a clumsy reference to his own religion, which his pro-abortion policies clearly demonstrate what he disdains despite what he says about being devout, in connection with Netanyahu. Last September, when Biden and Netanyahu finally met face to face for the first time in Old Joe’s alleged presidency, Biden made the sign of the cross during their press conference. Clearly Christianity and Judaism are all tied up with Netanyahu in Biden’s dementia-ridden musings. Is he antisemitic? Sure looks like it.

These two incidents strongly suggest that when Biden thinks of Netanyahu, he does so the way Annie Hall’s grandmother thinks of Woody Allen’s character, Alvy Singer, in Allen’s classic movie "Annie Hall." Annie, who is played by Diane Keaton, ingenuously says to Alvy at one point: “You’re what Grammy Hall would call a real Jew.” 

As he responds sarcastically, “Oh. Thank you,” Annie plows on: “Yeah, well, you — she hates Jews. She thinks that they just make money, but let me tell you, I mean, she's the one, yeah, is she ever. I’m tellin’ you.” When Annie takes Alvy to meet her family, Grammy Hall eyes him disapprovingly, and for a moment we see him through her eyes, as a Hasidic Jew complete with thick beard, sidecurls, and black hat.

Does Biden look at Netanyahu and see “a real Jew”? It is striking that while Biden clearly poses as a fervent Catholic, he seldom makes any reference to his religion, and yet has twice made public expressions of it in connection with the leader of the world’s sole Jewish state. Another indication of his genuine frame of mind toward Netanyahu, and Israel in general, came during his State of the Union address, which marked his official embrace of Hamas’ highly inflated casualty figures for Gaza. 

This was a complete reversal for Old Joe. Back in October, Biden declared that he had “no confidence in the number that the Palestinians are using” regarding the number of civilians that had actually been killed in Gaza. He even added, “I have no notion that the Palestinians are telling the truth about how many people are killed.” That’s right, Joe. They weren’t telling the truth. 

More important for Biden and his handlers, however, was the fact that since October, the Biden regime’s far-left base has been in revolt over Old Joe’s ostensible support for Israel. Nihad Awad, the executive director of the Hamas-linked Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR), who infamously said that he was “happy” about Hamas’ Oct. 7 jihad massacre, thundered at a November pro-Hamas rally: “No cease-fire, no votes. No votes in Michigan, no votes in Arizona, no votes in Georgia, no votes in Nevada, no votes in Wisconsin, no votes in Pennsylvania." 

These were, of course, the states that allowed Old Joe to pretend to be president over the last three years. Awad concluded: "No votes for you anywhere if you don’t call for a ceasefire now." Rep. Rashida Tlaib (D-Ramallah) added: "The American people won’t forget. Biden, support a ceasefire now. Or don’t count on us in 2024.”

And so, during his vicious and hate-filled State of the Union address, Biden made a complete about-face, saying: “This war has taken a greater toll on innocent civilians than all previous wars in Gaza combined. More than 30,000 Palestinians have been killed.” The only source for this claim is the Gaza Ministry of Health. Hamas runs the Gaza Ministry of Health and has every reason to inflate the number of civilians that Israel supposedly killed. It has been caught lying more than once.

Biden’s change of tune regarding casualty figures in Gaza, however, suggests that Old Joe doesn’t hate Jews after all. He just loves power, or at least its perks. He loves the votes that will help him keep on feeding at the taxpayer trough. America’s longstanding alliance with Israel is just collateral damage.
