The ‘Hell’ To Pay in Gaza
What a contrast to rhetoric of officials in the Biden administration.

President-elect Trump vows to unleash “hell” on Gaza hostage-takers if 101 infants, women, and men are not freed by January 20. Even before the inauguration, the tone is shifting at Washington in respect of the war that Iran and its proxies launched on Israel on October 7, 2023. President Biden’s decidedly mixed messages are replaced with a clarity that reminds Governor Huckabee of television shows from America’s past.
“Was so happy to hear @realDonaldTrump let Hamas know that they need to let hostages go NOW,” the nominee to serve as our ambassador to Jeruslaem writes on X. “The pressure should be on the criminals, not the victims! Biden has put more pressure on Israel than Hamas. On Jan 20 we trade Barney Fife for Wyatt Earp!” Echoing Trump’s posting, Mr. Huckabee is onto something. Our foes, and Israel’s, are overdue.
