Biden Administration Funds Holocaust Revisionism

This past May, the Biden administration patted itself on the back upon releasing what it calls the “first-ever U.S. national strategy to counter antisemitism.” President Biden supposedly made up his mind about running for president after the 2017 Unite the Right rally in Charlottesville, Va., which is why — according to the White House’s statement on its initiative — “he has prioritized action to counter antisemitism and hate of all kinds.”

The All-Lives-Matter-ing of antisemitism in the press release aside, the current president and his administration have at the same time done their part to further bigotry against Jews, at least internationally. In 2021, after former president Donald Trump cut assistance to the Palestinian Authority for programs in the West Bank and Gaza — the latter governed, if it can honestly be referred to in that way, by the Hamas terrorist organization — Biden restored $235 million in aid, which has since ballooned to over $1 billion. On Wednesday, a video of a speech given last month by PA leader Mahmoud Abbas reminded us who exactly benefits from administration funding.
