This is what Israel does.
We know what Putin does and we know the biased media and press reports the propaganda Palestinians, Hamas and Hezbollah feeds them without checking.
We also know the U.N attacks Israel all the time in order to place Israel in a bad light and now we know Biden and Democrats have turned against Israel. Why? It is because they need a scapegoat for their own fecklessness and immorality.
What Would You Do?
The first responsibility of every government is to keep its citizens safe from invasion, violence and terror. So why is it that when Israel defends itself, much of the world sees it as the villain? David Brog invites you to step into Israel’s shoes when confronted with a real-life attack. What would you do?

I&I/TIPP Poll: Are You Better Off Today Than A Year Ago? By 4-To-1, Americans Say 'No'
Inflation, COVID shutdowns, and supply-chain shortages have made Americans increasingly gloomy about the economy.
By Terry Jones
Are you better off today under President Joe Biden than you were a year earlier? And are you financially prepared for a downturn in the economy or a job loss? The March I&I/TIPP Poll suggests most Americans would answer "no" to both of those questions.
The poll asked: "Generally speaking, is your family better off today than it was one year ago, worse off than it was one year ago, or about the same as it was a year ago?"
Fewer than one in five (20%) said they were "better off." while more than twice that number — 42% — said they were "worse off." Another 36% said they were "about the same."
Taken as a whole, that means 78% of Americans have seen no progress or improvement at all in their financial and economic lives since Biden took over in early 2020.
Despite this, Biden's recent speeches have included references to the “best economic growth in the last four decades.”
"We did it alone. Without one single solitary Republican vote," he said in Philadelphia on March 11, speaking to House Democrats. "It was the Democrats — it was you — that brought us back."
If that's the message, Americans don't seem to be buying it. And a big reason for that is likely the sudden scary surge in inflation, which hits low- and middle-class Americans hardest of all.
While wage gains have averaged 5% or higher for four straight months, unfortunately, inflation during the same period has surged by an annual rate of over 7%, and looks likely to go even higher.
Americans, it seems, are feeling the pinch of Bidenomics. They can't keep up, despite all the "stimulus" — or perhaps, because of it.
In the same poll, I&I/TIPP also asked Americans, "How much does your household have in emergency savings — that is, money that is readily available in either a checking, savings or money-market account?"
Respondents were given eight possible responses: "No emergency savings," "One month's expenses," "Two months' expenses," "Three months' expenses," "Four months' expenses," "Five months' expenses," "Six months' expenses or more," and "Not sure."
Sadly, the biggest category by far was "No emergency savings," at 34%. Both "One month's" and "Two months' " garnered 11% each.
So 56% of all Americans, over half of the population, have either no savings or barely enough to last two months, should economic trouble occur. For most, that means they are one job loss or personal injury away from economic disaster.
Only 16% of respondents said they had financial resources for three to five months. And just 16% responded they had enough stashed to last for six months or more. Another 11% said they "weren't sure," perhaps the most worrisome response of all.
This, after the federal government has spent $6 trillion on COVID recovery and passed another $1.5 trillion in spending for the coming year, while the Federal Reserve printed an estimated $16.5 trillion in new cash and checking deposits since the start of the pandemic.
Despite all this activity and booster rhetoric from Democrats, Americans have given Biden's economic performance failing grades in recent polls.
"Biden now sports the lowest net economic rating of any president at this point through their first term since at least Jimmy Carter in 1977," CNN noted late last year, citing its own CNN/SRSS Poll.
If anything, with the stock market's plunge, continued soaring inflation and growing shortages in supermarkets, confidence in Bidenomics has grown worse in recent weeks, prompting even Democrats to criticize the president's policies.
The latest I&I/TIPP Poll was conducted online from March 2-4 with responses from 1,318 adults nationwide. The poll's margin of error is +/- 2.8 percentage points.
Each month, I&I/TIPP provides timely, relevant and informative data from our monthly polls on this topic and others of major interest to Americans. TIPP has earned a reputation for excellence by being the most accurate pollster for the past five presidential elections.

How Putin Pushed Pump Prices Higher Before Invading Ukraine
The anti-fossil fuel talking points that you’ve heard from the left for years were likely written by the Russians.The radical environmentalists don’t want you know this.In 2014, former NATO Secretary General Rasmussen warned of Putin’s dark money machine to undermine American energy.“Russia… engaged actively with so-called [NGOs] — environmental organizations working against shale gas — to maintain dependence on imported Russian gas.”Even Hillary Clinton admitted that “phony environmental groups” were funded by Russia to “stand against any effort” related to American fracking for natural gas, and that a lot of funding for the anti-fracking movement in the United States was “coming from Russia.”In 2017, the Office of the Director of National Intelligence released a report finding “clear evidence that the Kremlin is financing and choreographing anti-fracking propaganda in the United States.”In 2019, former Senior Director for Europe and Russia at the U.S. National Security Council testified that Russia was doing this because Putin sees “American fracking as a great threat to Russian interests” and that a ban on fracking would “play into strengthening Putin’s hands.”Putin allegedly uses a San Fransisco-based environmental NGO called Sea Change to funnel money into environmental advocacy efforts designed to undermine American energy. Sea Change receives funding from a Bermuda-based company called Klein Ltd.According to a 2014 report, Klein Ltd. is used “for funneling Russian government money to American environmental groups in order to undermine U.S. natural gas and oil production to Russia’s benefit.”We know for a fact that several high profile environmental groups in America are top recipients of funding from Sea Change. You’ll recognize their names.That’s why we’re launching an investigation … into this potential Russian collusion.
