Griffith speaks out against arms decision
Ninth District Rep. Morgan Griffith took to X – formerly Twitter – to express his displeasure with President Joe Biden’s decision to delay arms shipments to Israel.
“It is unconscionable that President Biden is holding up the arms shipment to Israel. It shows a clear lack of understanding of the situation on the ground and the threat Hamas poses to Israel,” Griffith wrote.
“Having recently been in the ‘Gaza envelope’ and talked to victims of the heinous Hamas October 7th attacks, and knowing that Hamas shelled Israel since 2007, it is clear that Hamas must be eliminated.
“Hamas has substantial military assets, troops and munitions, inside Rafah that Israel for self-defense reasons must neutralize.
“Israel has taken steps to try to alleviate harm to civilians and other noncombatants, and stands ready to assist with rebuilding a peaceful Gaza once Hamas is eliminated.
“For the life of me, I cannot understand why any supporter of the state of Israel could support the President’s actions,” Griffith closed.

I agree with you completely, Rep. Griffith, Sir. But, then, consider the source, and the COMPLETE mess this administration has our God-given country in at the present time; not to mention, does Biden think that Hamas will stop with Israel (if it should fall, God forbid), and not continue it’s evil ways on the rest of us? I say, LET ISRAEL GET RID OF THEM ONCE AND FOR ALL (with anyone’s help)!!! God bless Israel and God bless the USA. And, tell Biden and his cronies to start worrying about his OWN people’s welfare/safety also, instead of worrying about the next President, Donald Trump!!! Hope some of you will make sure this next election is organized/consumated fairly!!! Thank you very much Rep. Griffith!!!

Personally, aid to Ukraine is a lost cause, Long live the USA.
