Jewish liaisons to campaigns usually come out of the Jewish community.
Instead, Kamala decided to promote (or demote) Ilan Goldenberg, an anti-Israel activist with groups such as Peace Now and Israel Policy Forum, to be her Jewish ‘liaison’.
I have a more in-depth article coming about Ilan Goldenberg and I had exposed him before as having advocated for a deal in which “Hamas would retain some of its military capabilities”.
But I found this excerpt from an interview with the anti-Israel activist turned Jewish liaison interesting.
For those who don’t want to sit through the whole video, Kamala’s Middle East adviser and new liaison to the Jewish community, Ilan Goldenberg, explains why the Biden administration only pretends to support Israel before stabbing it in the back.
During the 2021 battles with Hamas, Goldenberg explained why Biden was pretending to support Israel.
“What Biden has decided to do for the moment is privately tell the Israelis to stop or to stop soon while publicly continuing to support them. This helps him build political support inside of Israel. It also gives them leverage for the future. ‘But when there does come a moment, hopefully soon, if it hasn’t happened already privately, where Biden says, OK, enough is enough, you must stop or our public position is going to start to shift. Our position at the UN Security Council where we’ve been defending you is going to start to shift. You need to make this end. You need to have the civilian casualties end.'”
“But if he had just started by publicly criticizing, I think that the belief, at least in the Biden administration, is that it might have been actually a moment for Prime Minister Netanyahu to. Stand up to the United States and say we don’t take our orders from the United States. We have to do what’s best in our security and kind of use the disagreement with the US as a political rallying cry for himself at home. And so I think this is one of the reasons why the Biden administration chose to, at least at the beginning, publicly support Israel.”
There you have it. The support for Israel is a trojan horse providing leverage to stop Israel.
And here, Ilan Goldenberg makes it abundantly clear where his sympathies lie in the 2021 clash between Israel and Hamas.
That Goldenberg was not only Kamala’s Middle East adviser, shaping her view about the Jewish State, but now also her liaison to the Jewish community, speaks volumes about who she is.
