Airstrikes in Beirut Targeting Hezbollah’s Financial Arms
It’s become a vicious cycle. The administration of Joe Biden and Kamala Harris throws money at Iran. Iran uses the opportunity to enact more terrorism. The solution by the Biden-Harris regime is to appease Iran into submission with even more money. Rinse and repeat. The atrocities committed by Iran through terrorist proxies like Hamas and Hezbollah have been more than tangible.
Israel is now tweaking its tactics and has promised more attacks on the financial arms of Hezbollah. The money that has been sent to Iran’s proxies by the Biden-Harris administration is bearing this very bitter fruit that Israel is having to deal with.
In short, Iran has seen weakness – and in some cases, alignment – from factions inside U.S. leadership over the last four years. Conversely, during the first Trump administration, it saw the opposite. Whether it was through tough economic sanctions or by eliminating top terrorist figures, Iran had to think twice before signing off or engaging in terrorist acts.
Mark Biltz, founder of El Shaddai Ministries is very close to what’s going on in Israel. In his book, America at War 2024 – 2026, he insists that even greater attacks are coming, even to America’s shores. A big reason for this has been the policies of appeasement under the current U.S. regime. A commentary that appeared on the Heritage Foundation’s website from more than two months ago, underscores this reality.
“Hamas steals the food aid and then sells it to the people,” says Biltz. “Even if motives for appeasement were well-intentioned, which they’re not, they never work.”
Biltz argues that the Biden administration’s approach is not only fostering instability in the Middle East but is also emboldening groups that threaten global security. The perceived weakness has allowed Iran to expand its influence, financing terrorism while undermining the very foundations of peace that the U.S. has historically tried to build in the region. With a growing number of attacks on American allies and interests, Biltz warns that the cycle of violence could escalate, potentially leading to direct confrontations on American soil.
As someone deeply entrenched in the complexities of Middle Eastern geopolitics, Biltz emphasizes the urgent need for a reassessment of U.S. foreign policy. He advocates for a shift away from appeasement and towards a strategy that holds Iran accountable. His insights offer a critical perspective for understanding the dynamics at play and the consequences of current U.S. policies, making him a key voice in the conversation about America’s future security and its role in the world.
