Republican Sen. John Kennedy of Louisiana on Sunday offered President Joe Biden some advice on dealing with Middle Eastern terrorists.
“Buy a spine.”
Kennedy criticized Biden’s latest effort to undermine Israel following Iran’s attack on America’s closest ally in the region.
As the Tampa Free Press reported on Saturday, Iran launched more than 300 “munitions” in attacking Israel, including more than 100 ballistic missiles, cruise missiles, and explosive aerial drones.

Israel reported that the air base sustained minor damage in the attack and one civilian casualty, a 7-year-old girl who was seriously wounded.
Iran’s attack comes as Israel is contemplating its next move in the war against Hamas, which is supported by Iran, and after an Israeli air raid in Syria killed top-ranking Iranian officials.
The Israeli Defense Force is close to rooting out the last remnants of Hamas holed up in the city of Rafah.
Yet American liberals are demanding a ceasefire and that Israel show more concern for civilians, even though Palestinians in Gaza overwhelmingly support Hamas.
Some Democrats in Congress are calling for Biden to withhold military aid to Israel as well as for Israelis to remove Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.
Biden has waffled in recent weeks about supporting Israel’s tactics after getting ripped by his own party for not being tougher on America’s ally.

Biden apparently drifted even further left after the Iranian strike.
The Times reported that Biden told Netanyahu that the U.S. would not support a retaliatory strike against Iran.
Sen. Kennedy, a Louisiana Republican, shared some thoughts about that on Fox News on Sunday.
“It is clear that President Biden is being influenced by the Hamas wing of the Democratic Party,” said Kennedy.
“In the past 60 days, we have seen President Biden go wobbly in his support of Israel. … More sheep is not going to solve the wolf problem.”
“My advice to the president today, for what it’s worth, is: Mr. President, don’t. Stop it. Support Israel. With respect, go to Amazon and buy a spine online. Peace through weakness never works, not with these hard, armed men.”

“We’re not at war with Hamas. Israel’s not at war with Hamas or Hezbollah or Yemen. Those are all surrogates for — for Iran,” Kennedy continued.
“Those are they’re prostitutes. The pimp is Iran. Israel is at war with Iran. Iran hates Americans. Iran hates Jews. Iran wants to kill Americans and Jews. And if we turn the other cheek to them we’re going to get it in the neck.”
