After Democrats used the assurances of Israeli military aid last fall to persuade RINOs in Congress to help pass a Ukraine free-for-all, courtesy of U.S. taxpayers, lame-duck President Joe Biden pulled one final bait-and-switch, rerouting it instead to Israel’s de-facto enemy to help support anti-Semitic terrorism.
The Biden administration said it was shifting more than $100 million in military aid from Israel and Egypt to Lebanon as it ostensibly tries to bolster a ceasefire agreement it helped mediate between Israel and Hezbollah, the Lebanon-based terror group that is backed by Iran.
In separate notices sent to Congress, the State Department said it was moving $95 million in military assistance intended for Egypt and $7.5 million for Israel toward supporting the Lebanese army and its government. The notices were dated Jan. 3 and obtained by The Associated Press on Tuesday.
Most of the money will go to the Lebanese Armed Forces, which have a critical role in standing up the ceasefire that was agreed to in November following an all-out war between Israeli and Hezbollah that battered much of southern and eastern Lebanon for two months.
But critics argue that the Lebanese military is effectively a proxy for the terrorist organization because it is so heavily infiltrated by Hezbollah combattants. That likely means the money will instead be used to help plan further attacks on the embattled Jewish nation–state and longtime U.S. ally.
The Biden administration faced similar criticism for its funding of Hamas, including the decision to unfreeze billions in Iranian assets in the days prior to a deadly Oct. 7, 2023, massacre that left more than 1,200 Israelis dead, with about 250 more taken hostage.
The Lebanese kickback is intended to help the LAF deploy in the south of the country and supplement the role of the U.N. peacekeeping mission patrolling the so-called Blue Line, which has separated Israel and Lebanon since the end of a monthlong Israel–Hezbollah war in 2006…
