Webinar | The CCP’s Invasion of Israel: How Xi Set Fire to the Middle East – and Why

Spain, Ireland and Norway formally recognized a non-existent state of “Palestine” today. They thus indulged in the sort of European virtue-signaling that has brought us such past “triumphs” of diplomacy as the 1928 Kellogg-Briand pact that banned war.

Now as then, such delusional preening only emboldens aggressors and makes achieving a real, let alone a durable, peace infinitely less likely.

To be clear, today’s tripartite malfeasance is nothing less than a reward for the terrorists of Hamas and their part in the murderous invasion of Israel on October 7. In fact, there simply is no Palestinian leader, political party or official entity that is actually committed to living “side-by-side in peace” with Israel.

On the contrary, they all seek the destruction of the Jewish State. And were they to get one of their own, it would only advance that cause.

 Unfortunately, another malevolent force stands to benefit from what Madrid, Dublin and Oslo are doing – and Team Biden’s parallel efforts to save Hamas and both undermine and defeat Israel: the Chinese Communist Party. There is growing evidence that the CCP also played a part in the invasion of Israel – and possibly a decisive one.

This week's CPDC webinar reviews that evidence and how it suggests that the conflagration currently engulfing not just Israel, but much of her always dangerous neighborhood, has actually been sparked by the strategic arsonist doing business as the dictator of Communist China. In particular, we consider how the ongoing war thus set in motion for the very survival of the Jewish State and its far-reaching economic, diplomatic and strategic repercussions are redounding to the CCP’s benefit – at grave expense to Israel and to vital U.S. interests far beyond the Middle East.
