DO A SEARCH FOR BARACK OBAMA AND HIS SAUDIS PAYMASTERS. OBOMB DIDN'T BECOME A SOCIOPATH THE DAY HIS CORRUPT TERM BEGAN.
How Obama is Running America’s Response to Oct. 7
"They hold the Iran file."
Like Robert Spencer, many people wonder why Joe Biden and his henchmen “are considering sending $10 billion to the Islamic Republic of Iran, the chief funder of Hamas.” David Samuels had some thoughts on the subject in “The Obama Factor,” a landmark Tablet interview with David Garrow, author of Rising Star: The Making of Barack Obama.
“Why are they still fixated on Iran after the Iran deal failed, it’s premises are exploded?” wonders Samuels, Tablet’s literary editor. “I don’t follow the Iranian stuff super carefully,” Garrow replied, “but I have been puzzled at the Biden administration’s continuing attachment to the Iran deal.” Samuels is on to it.
“The easy explanation, of course, is that Joe Biden is not running that part of his administration. Obama is. He doesn’t even have to pick up the phone because all of his people are already inside the White House. They hold the Iran file. Tony Blinken doesn’t.”
“Rob Malley was the guy on that,” Garrow recalls.
“Rob Malley is just one person,” responds Samuels. “Brett McGurk. Dan Shapiro in Israel. Lisa Monaco in Justice. Susan Rice running domestic policy. It’s turtles all the way down. There are obviously large parts of White House policymaking that belong to Barack Obama because they’re staffed by his people, who worked for him and no doubt report back to him. Personnel is policy, as they say in Washington, which to me is a very odd and kind of spooky arrangement. Spooky, because it is happening outside the constitutional framework of the U.S. government, and yet somehow it’s been placed off the list of permitted subjects to report on. Which is a pretty good indicator of the extent to which the information we get, and public reactions to that information, is being successfully controlled.” For Garrow, a Pulitzer Prize-winner for Bearing the Cross, this is a serious matter.
“Well, for Barack, everything has to be a success,” Garrow explains. “Everything has to be a victory” and the composite character has been at it for a while.
The former Barry Soetoro, who spent early years in Indonesia, believed that it was possible to negotiate with an Islamic regime that in 1979 took 52 Americans hostage and held them captive for 444 days. The regime’s mantra is “Death to Israel! Death to America!” but toward the end of his second term, the composite character took his support for the regime to a new level.
Obama sent a planeload of cash to the regime, the chief funder of terrorism in general and Hamas in particular. With all his people in the White House, as Samuels noted, he continues the funding. “Everything has to be a victory,” Garrow explains, so by his own standard, Obama wants the Iranian-Hamas axis to win, but that’s not all he wants.
“He wants people to believe his story,” Garrow told Samuels. “For me to conclude that Dreams from My Father was historical fiction – Oh God, did that infuriate him.” All told, Garrow finds that Obama is “not normal, as in not a normal politician or a normal human being.
After reading Rising Star, Samuels still finds Obama, “deeply sympathetic as a person” and identifies with him emotionally. On the other hand, “there was something about this fictional character that he created actually becoming president that helped precipitate the disaster that we are living through now.”
That was in early August, before 10/7, the worst massacre of Jews since the Holocaust. The “genocidal pogrom,” as Bari Weiss put it, sent armies of anti-Semites into the street calling for the annihilation of Israel and the killing of Jews everywhere. Shortly after the attack, the composite character said the attack was “horrific” but issued no outright condemnation of Hamas.
On the other hand, Obama decried the “occupation,” the term Osama bin Laden used three times in his 2002 letter to America now making the rounds on social media. “What is happening to the Palestinians is unbearable,” the composite character also said, striking moral equivalence between the Hamas terrorists and their Jewish victims. As David Garrow said, he’s not a normal person and not a normal politician.
In 2008, the composite character promised to fundamentally transform the United States of America. That transformation continues through Joe Biden, who is now being pressured by Obama’s narrator, David Axelrod, to step aside, possibly to make way for Michelle. She was unreadable in college, as the late Christopher Hitchens noted, but she now has two auto-hagiographies in the best Axelrod style.
If the composite character gets a fourth term through Michelle, the disaster we are living through now will continue. The free and prosperous nation Americans have known will cease to exist. The former Barry Soetoro will continue to fund the Iran-Hamas axis, and everything has to be a victory. So in his final solution, Israel also disappears. And all the peaceful protesters around the world will cry out, “Allahu Barackbar!”

Hamas Chief Thanks Iran for ‘Victory’ Following Israel Hostage Deal
Hamas terror leader Ismail Haniyeh graciously thanked the world’s most prolific state sponsor of terrorism, Iran, on Thursday for its “firm support” against the ongoing military operation by Israel to eradicate the group in its stronghold of Gaza.
Haniyeh appeared to credit Tehran’s theocratic rulers for playing a role in an agreement with the Israeli government to pause the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) operations in Gaza and free some convicted terrorists in exchange for Hamas freeing some Israeli hostages.
Hamas is believed to have taken about 250 hostages during an unprecedented string of atrocities committed on October 7, in an event the genocidal jihadist group refers to as the “al-Aqsa Flood.”
That day, a wave of Hamas terrorists invaded Israel and went on door-to-door killing rampages, killing entire families in their own homes, raping and torturing random civilians, and filming themselves desecrating the bodies of their victims.

Pollak / Breitbart NewsAt a music festival taking place that day, Hamas terrorists opened fire on concertgoers, gang-raped women on site, and similarly brutalized the corpses of those they killed. Forensic evidence suggests the use of rape as a weapon of war and the gruesome killing of children as young as infants, found decapitated and burned.
A spokesman for Hamas, Ghazi Hamad, told the BBC on October 7 that the group had “direct backing” from Iran in orchestrating the attack. Iran’s regime threw a massive street party, replete with fireworks, in Tehran on October 7 to celebrate the mass killing of innocents, in which attendees chanted “death to America” and “death to Israel.”
The IDF launched an operation into Gaza, which is controlled by Hamas, shortly thereafter to rescue the hostages taken and neutralize Hamas’s ability to orchestrate another similar attack.
That operation is expected to pause for four days beginning on Friday. Hamas terrorists claim they will release a group of hostages hours after the pause begins; it remains unclear exactly who among the missing will be released, nor does the public know the exact location where the hostages are expected to be freed.

Israel agreed to the deal after being pressured by the administration of President Joe Biden, according to White House officials.
“The President recognized very early, the only way, the only realistic way to get a humanitarian pause in place — and we support humanitarian pauses irrespective of a hostage deal — is through an agreement to bring the hostages home,” White House Coordinator for the Middle East and North Africa Brett McGurk said on Wednesday, claiming Biden supported “humanitarian pauses irrespective of a hostage deal.”
The Biden administration uses the term “humanitarian pauses” instead of “ceasefire” to refer to a halt in the fighting.
Haniyeh did not describe the pause as “humanitarian” but, rather, a “political and military” victory in his public remarks alongside Iranian Foreign Minister Hossein Amir-Abdollahian on Thursday. Iran’s PressTV referred to the “humanitarian pause” as a “ceasefire.”
“This is a political victory that was achieved based on the victory of the resistance in the field and the enemy failed in achieving its goals except for the killing of women and children and citizens and destroying their houses,” Haniyeh reportedly said.
“Despite the initial opposition to the ceasefire, the United States, understanding the realities of the battlefield, was finally forced to surrender to the will of the Palestinian people and the will of the world nations,” he claimed, “and the positive vote of 120 countries to the resolution of the United Nations General Assembly for a ceasefire with Hamas, which shows the US dominance over the international order has diminished.”

Haniyeh specifically thanked Iran for its “firm support” and Amir-Abdollahian for “active diplomatic support” in international venues for Hamas’s cause in general. Hamas is a genocidal organization whose original charter called for the destruction of Judaism and Christianity and “complete destruction of Israel.”
In his remarks alongside Haniyeh – with whom he met in Doha, Qatar – Amir-Abdollahian celebrated the atrocities of October 7, claiming they “shook the world” and “the dimensions of victory and achievement of the Palestinian nation were much bigger and tipped the strategic balance in different dimensions in favor of Palestine and the detriment of the usurping Zionist regime.”
Amir-Abdollahian interpreted the hostage deal as a sign “the US and the Israeli regime failed to achieve the least in the military field and were forced to negotiate indirectly with Hamas for a ceasefire and the release of their prisoners.”

Chargé d’Affaires a.i. Stephanie Hallett via StoryfulThe president of Iran, Ebrahim Raisi, similarly proclaimed that the agreement was a “humiliating defeat” for Israel in remarks on Thursday.
“If we want to make an analysis after over 40 days … we must say that the enemy suffered a humiliating defeat and that the Palestinian people and resistance scored a great victory,” the Iranian state outlet Fars News quoted Raisi as saying. “The resistance managed to incapacitate the fake regime and frustrate it with no air, naval and ground forces.”
