Today, in unison, within minutes of each other, numerous Obama foreign policy fanboys in the media and Democratic Party tweeted out almost verbatim statements of support for @ilangoldenberg. Try to be more subtle next time guys.

Here's @mkoplow with some of that sweet sweet fake outrage:

🧵 With this UNSC resolution, the Biden administration has fully become Hamas's lawyer in the international arena. This is a multifaceted attack not just on Israel's ability to prosecute the war, but on its security needs after the war. Think I'm exaggerating? Read on. 1/

First point: Phase 1 of the "ceasefire" doesn’t require the release of any specific number of hostages. It only calls for “the release of hostages including women, the elderly and the wounded.” Hamas could plausibly satisfy this by releasing three people. In fact, the terms of the hostages-for-prisoners deal in Phase 1 are so vague that they seem *designed* to cause the deal to fail in Phase 1. 2/

One year ago @elizashapiro, a NYT education reporter, wrote this breathless 1,400-word story about a "sweeping" and "dramatic" lawsuit from lefty race activists that would rewrite admissions to NYC schools. A Democratic judge tossed it out today in a two-sentence ruling. 1/

The suit was ludicrous on its face and deserved at most a short, highly skeptical piece. At most! Instead, NYT ran a long feature that entertained no doubt about the soundness of the suit's legal theory or its prospects in court. 2/

The Biden foreign policy moves we're seeing -- refusing to stop buying Russian oil, sudden outreach to Venezuela and KSA, the insane cave-in to Iran/Russia in the Vienna talks -- make sense once you realize Biden admin foreign policy has two inviolable rules: Rule #1: get back into something that can be heralded as the Iran deal, no matter what. This is less a policy idea than a matter of Democratic honor – refusing to admit the failure of Obama’s major foreign policy goal, repudiating Trump, etc.

Short thread. This three-byline NBC News piece (by @tylerkingkade, @BrandyZadrozny, & Ben Collins) is the latest MSM attack on critics of woke K-12 education. It covers no new ground but the way it’s framed – identical to other MSM pieces – is telling. 1/ nbcnews.com/news/us-news/c… You’d think a long story about growing opposition to CRT, “social justice” activism, etc in schools would include a few grafs detailing what people are upset about. What new ideas, exactly, are being taught? How are schools changing curricula? Etc. 2/

Trita Parsi is upheld by progressives as a leading foreign policy voice and Middle East expert. He is included in the list of 100 foreign policy "experts" progressives are demanding Biden admin hire. And he's been baselessly claiming Trump will start a war with Iran for years. 2018:

THREAD: I’m proud to announce a new foreign policy project I am helping lead, a new group called the Democratic Alliance Initiative. We have several goals: to remind Americans of the foreign policy stakes in the election 1/ To expose the revisionist history and false claims offered as a defense of returning to the Iran deal & peace process; to highlight the threat from China; and to combat the growing reliance of the foreign policy left on narratives and “experts” 2/

What accounts for today's historic peace deal? A lot of hard work, for sure. The enormous growth in Israeli economic, military, & demographic power over the last 20 years, definitely. But the key new ingredient is the Trump admin being guided by the right ideas. Short thread. 1/ Since before Israel’s founding, self-described foreign policy “realists” have been anti-Israel, or at least anti US-Israel alliance. Why be friends with the little guy when doing so angers the vastly larger majority in the region, and we need their oil? 2/

Why are so many western progressives who posture as Advocates for Peace so upset by the Israel-UAE peace deal? You'd think they’d be happy right now – haven’t they always called for Arab-Israeli peace? Short thread 1/ Well, they never mean it. The progressive/BDS wing of the Democrats – the Squad/Bernie crowd, plus Israel-obsessed activists like Peter Beinart, Codepink, Matt Duss – made themselves bedfellows of Hamas, the PLO, Iran, Turkey, and the Houthis in attacking the deal. 2/

Beirut explosion is in area known to be used by Hezbollah for its long-range precision-guided missile project, which Israel publicly calls a red line. I have no specific knowledge, but would be surprised if explosives that detonated were not associated w/ that project. 1/ Accident or sabotage? Unclear. But one reason explosives were there in 1st place is Obama-Biden nuclear deal, which gave Iran & its terror proxy Hezbollah billions & unleashed them in the region. One of Hezb’s top priorities has been building sophisticated missiles. 2/

I draw your attention to a little-noticed but very important statement made by Bernie adviser @joshorton to the DNC platform committee: jewishinsider.com/2020/07/dnc-ad… Let’s take a closer look at this offensive lie. Why would someone who works in far-left American politics refer to a religious-national dispute in the Middle East using an irrelevant phrase taken from US domestic politics? It's odd and out of place. What’s going on here?

Important @FreeBeacon editorial on the new coalition of progressive Dems in Congress who are seeking to normalize BDS with a clever new strategy freebeacon.com/national-secur… The strategy is to condition US military assistance to Israel -- a policy dating back 50 years and that has major strategic benefits to both the US and Israel -- on Israel obeying unreasonable and dangerous far-left demands regarding the Palestinians
