Ben Rhodes

The evil, the enemy within. Israel-hating, Jew-hating, Benjamin Netanyahu hating anti-American former top Barack Hussein Obama aide, former deputy national security advisor to America’s first Islamic president, Ben Rhodes. Pictured on the right in the photo above. These are just two of the many in positions of power, and authority in America holding evil and darkness within their hearts and minds, working daily to carry out the desires of their master, Satan, for they do not serve the Lord, rather they are those clearly mentioned in the Word of God [see Revelation 17, “the many waters,” the people of the world outside of the Lord Jesus Christ] serving the Whore of Babylon. A great irony is they have a large American flag hanging behind them. [Photo caption proved by the administrator of A Crooked Path].

 

Now the Lord had said to Abram:

“Get out of your country,
From your family
And from your father’s house,
To a land that I will show you.
I will make you a great nation;
I will bless you
And make your name great;
And you shall be a blessing.
I will bless those who bless you,
And I will curse him who curses you;
And in you all the families of the earth shall be blessed.”

Genesis 12:1-3

All the noise, commotion, rage, and violence even resulting in death within with regard to Israel and what has been occurring daily is just one more evidence for anyone willing to hear, see, and know of the escalating spiritual war everyone is a participant in. It may appear political. It may appear something distant and only on TV, in the news, not touching you — but there is no escape for anyone at any time while in this fleshly realm from the never-ceasing spiritual war taking place within and around every person.

And each of their free will determines which of the only two possible sides in this war to belong to and fight for. There are no conscientious objectors, bystanders, spectators, or given a “get out of the spiritual war” card pass “Go” and collect your money. This is not a game. This is a reality every person had better come to terms with.

For the days grow shorter. The Enemy grows stronger knowing he and all his ministers, all his lies, all his work of evil days are numbered and rapidly growing shorter.

All the rioting, protestations, screaming, and loud en masse ignorance evil is exhibiting in America, in the West, within governments and those in power, by those of great material wealth funding, fueling this evil is but one sign, one bit of evidence.

Do not brush off, shrug, or carry on as if nothing important in your life is taking place and all this is only happening to other people.

No one is outside or can remove themselves from this spiritual war — not a war of culture or political ideologies as always droned and indoctrinated into folks, no, this is at its core a spiritual war — and each person is either on one side or the other and there are only two sides in this war.

Where do you stand and do battle? For whom or Whom?

The Enemy within, the enemy within is the greatest foe to do battle with. Pacifism only means defeat. Going AWOL only means judgment. Leaving things up to others does not get one off the hook from doing their duty in this ever-growing spiritual war leading up to the fulfillment of every word within the Word of God.

Former deputy national security adviser and Holocaust Memorial Museum board member Ben Rhodes made multiple comments featuring antisemitic tropes directed toward Israel, its Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, and Jews.

In a recent interview on the “Occupied Thoughts” podcast, Rhodes told notably anti-Zionist host Peter Beinart that Netanyahu’s policy when dealing with Palestine is to be “corrupt and cruel.”

“Maybe [Netanyahu’s] view is, ‘Jews have been screwed throughout history by a corrupt, cruel world. And so you know what, we just have to be corrupt and cruel ourselves. That’s the only way to survive in this world,’” Rhodes said. Rhodes also accused Netanyahu of manipulating “right-wing, pro-Likud media in the United States” to “needle Obama” and “create a weeklong political story.”

“The media interest is dramatically intensified,” Rhodes said. “And that’s both a very aggressive, kind of pro-Likud media in the United States, [and] it’s also just the mainstream media that delights in Israel controversies.” Rhodes continued his screed by claiming the people who support Israel should “just be honest” about their view of Palestine.

“I wish the right … would just say, ‘We don’t believe there should be a Palestinian state, we believe in the concept of a greater Israel, we feel sorry for the Palestinians, but they’re just going to have to deal with it,’” Rhodes said. “That’s the position of the Israeli government. Frankly, that’s the position of the Republican Party, even if they’re not honest about it.”

Rhodes also attacked the communities that defend Israel’s quest to be its own state, saying they are used to exercising their influence and pushing their priorities within the federal government.

“You have this incredibly organized pro-Israel community that is very accustomed to having access in the White House, in Congress, at the State Department,” Rhodes added. “It’s kind of taken as granted, as given, that that’s going to be the way things are done.”

Because of Israel, U.S. media, and conservative influences, Rhodes concluded that Palestine has never been afforded the chance to prove a two-state solution is viable.

“Some conservative Democrats … [have] been playing these talking points around the two-state solution and then blame the Palestinians for it never happening,” Rhodes said. “I got so sick of hearing, ‘Palestinians never missed an opportunity to miss an opportunity.’ But when did we give them one?”

Top Obama aide hits Biden administration support of Israel’s war in Gaza as violation of international laws

Ben Rhodes, a former deputy national security adviser to President Barack Obama, penned a guest essay in the New York Times criticizing the Biden administration’s support for Israel’s right to self-defense against the terrorist group Hamas.

In an opinion piece, titled “Henry Kissinger, the Hypocrite,” published after the German-born American diplomat, academic and presidential adviser, died at the age of 100 on Wednesday, Rhodes took the opportunity to bash the current presidential administration for its support of Israel in its fight against Hamas following the October 7 terrorist attack on the country.

“In Gaza, the United States has supported an Israeli military operation that has killed civilians at a pace that has once again suggested to much of the world that we are selective in our embrace of international laws and norms,” Rhodes argued.

“All of this cannot be laid on Henry Kissinger’s shoulders,” he warned. “In many ways, he was as much a creation of the American national security state as its author. But his is also a cautionary tale.”

Rhodes currently serves as a contributor for MSNBC and co-host of Pod Save the World. He is known for his anti-Israel sentiments and has previously criticized the Biden administration’s policies, as reported by The Federalist.

In an interview on the “Occupied Thoughts” podcast in 2021, Rhodes told anti-Zionist Peter Beinart that Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s policy toward Palestinians was to be “corrupt and cruel.”

He also criticized the Biden administration’s pro-Israel approach, stating it felt like it was “in a defensive crouch.” He said “these issues are shaped and framed and defined from the right” and that “if you’re a mainstream Democrat, not only are you expected to take a set of positions, but you are expected to apologize for the people to your left.”

The clash between Israel and Hamas has created a divide in the Democratic Party with more traditional liberals in favor of Israel’s right to self-defense, while the more progressive wing of the party has increasingly taken on a pro-Palestinian stance in calling for a cease-fire.
