Trump also withdrew from Obama\u2019s feckless nuclear pact with Iran.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>But now the pendulum is swinging back again as President Biden bends to the radical elements of his party.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The 11-day war that was halted with Thursday\u2019s cease-fire revealed how Hamas has vastly expanded and improved its rocket arsenal. Thankfully, most of the unguided explosives were no match for Israel\u2019s superior offensive and defensive capabilities, but this was the first time the terrorists in Gaza put all of Israel in their rockets\u2019 range.\u00a0<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" width=\"1024\" height=\"682\" alt=\"The Israeli Iron Dome air defense system launches to intercept rockets fired from the Gaza Strip.\" class=\"wp-image-18317957 lazyload\" srcset=\"https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2021\/05\/iron-dome-rockets.jpg?quality=90&amp;strip=all&amp;w=300 300w, https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2021\/05\/iron-dome-rockets.jpg?quality=90&amp;strip=all&amp;w=640 640w, https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2021\/05\/iron-dome-rockets.jpg?quality=90&amp;strip=all&amp;w=1280 1280w, https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2021\/05\/iron-dome-rockets.jpg?quality=90&amp;strip=all&amp;w=1024 1024w, https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2021\/05\/iron-dome-rockets.jpg?quality=90&amp;strip=all&amp;w=2000 2000w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 1024px\"\/><figcaption>The Israeli Iron Dome air defense system launches to intercept rockets fired from the Gaza S<a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/trip-and-travel\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"10\" title=\"Trip &amp; Travel\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">trip<\/a>.<\/figcaption><figcaption><span class=\"credit\">Ariel Schalit\/AP<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Perhaps more important in the long term is the behavior among those not engaged in combat.

The perfunctory rhetoric also reflects the new alliance of some Arab states with Israel against Iran, a Trump breakthrough that seems to have weathered its first stress test.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The despair is the growing size of the Dems\u2019 anti-Israel contingent and that Biden spun around like a weather vane in a wind storm.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>At first, the president acted the part of a Truman Democrat and instinctively supported Israel\u2019s right of self-defense. But as casualties mounted in Gaza, the criticism grew and the president surrendered.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>A defining moment came last Tuesday when Michigan Rep. Rashida Tlaib, the first Palestinian woman elected to Congress, confronted Biden at the Detroit airport and argued American aid to Israel was funding atrocities against Palestinians.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The tarmac face-off lasted eight minutes, and Biden later lavished praise on Tlaib\u2019s \u201cpassion and concern for so many people.\u201d Presumably, her concern doesn\u2019t include the Jews Hamas vows to eliminate.\u00a0<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" width=\"1024\" height=\"682\" alt=\"Early during the recent conflict, President Biden said Israel had a right to defend itself.\" class=\"wp-image-18317959 lazyload\" srcset=\"https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2021\/05\/biden-israel-3.jpg?quality=90&amp;strip=all&amp;w=300 300w, https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2021\/05\/biden-israel-3.jpg?quality=90&amp;strip=all&amp;w=640 640w, https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2021\/05\/biden-israel-3.jpg?quality=90&amp;strip=all&amp;w=1280 1280w, https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2021\/05\/biden-israel-3.jpg?quality=90&amp;strip=all&amp;w=1024 1024w, https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2021\/05\/biden-israel-3.jpg?quality=90&amp;strip=all&amp;w=2000 2000w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 1024px\"\/><figcaption>Early during the recent conflict, President Biden said Israel had a right to defend itself.<\/figcaption><figcaption><span class=\"credit\">Debbie Hill, Pool via AP<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>The very next day, Biden flipped sides and demanded Israel de-escalate immediately and move toward a cease-fire.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>As is always the case with appeasement, retreat did not earn him any good will.

Bernie Sanders and others ramped up their demand for a halt to a weapons sale to Israel Biden had approved, and Tlaib and others continued their criticism of him and the Jewish nation.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Much of it was simply unhinged.
