Biden's "don't" doctrine on the world stage is challenged by Trump, who threatens adversaries with a "all hell to pay" deadline.

As the Biden administration comes to an end, Trump is defying his predecessor's "don't" approach to foreign adversaries by issuing stern warnings before taking office.

If Hamas does not release the hostages before January 20, 2025, the date when I will officially become President of the United States, there will be dire consequences in the Middle East, and those responsible for these heinous acts against humanity will face severe consequences.

Trump remarked that the hostages being held violently and inhumanly in the Middle East are the subject of much discussion, but it's all just talk and no action.

On Oct. 7, 2023, a war broke out in the Middle East when Hamas launched a surprise attack on Israel. Since then, terrorists have kidnapped more than 200 people from Israel, with Hamas still holding 101 hostages, including seven Americans, in Gaza.

Despite months of efforts by the White House and Israeli government to negotiate a hostage release deal, no success has been achieved.

Trump's strong words against Hamas, which threatened those holding hostages with severe consequences, differ greatly from Biden's "don't" approach to the Israeli conflict.

During his speech in Israel last year, Biden cautioned against any attacks on Israel by adversaries.

As he stated, his message to any state or hostile actor considering an attack on Israel remains the same as it was a week ago: Do not.

War continued despite the warning, including from Iranian proxies against Israel.

Biden intensified his caution against Iran this year by reiterating his "don't" warning. When questioned by reporters about Iran's anticipated attack on Israel in April, he stated his message to Tehran as "Don't."

We are committed to defending Israel and ensuring Iran's failure. We will provide support and aid in this effort.

In August, Biden issued a warning to Iran, stating that any attack on Israel would result in severe consequences.

The message of Biden's common response to deter foreign adversaries from attacking Israel is viewed as weak by conservative security experts and others, resulting in a failed policy.

Former Secretary of State Mike Pompeo tweeted in August that the Administration's repeated 'don't' to Iran is followed by inaction, resulting in a growing risk from Iran due to this weakness.

Pompeo later commented on Planet Chronicle that "he said 'Don't' multiple times, and 'Don't' isn't a national security policy, nor is it a deterrent."

According to Sen. Lindsey Graham, R-S.C., in a post in April, President Biden's statement "Don't" to bad guys was not an effective deterrent, as they continued to act despite the warning.

"Rep. Nancy Mace, R-S.C. wrote that Biden's approach with Iran and the Middle East is backwards. Now, as the US risks entering WWIII, the president must stand by Israel's commitment to democracy and stop coddling Iran immediately."

""Gutfeld mocked Biden's use of the word 'don't' during the Israel-Hamas conflict, saying his speechwriters had reduced his vocabulary to one word," according to Planet Chronicle."

Trump claimed that he would have prevented the wars in Ukraine and Israel, which started under the Biden administration, if he had been in office.

Trump stated on the campaign trail in January that the situations in Ukraine and Israel were both horrific and that he would quickly solve them.

Israeli officials commended Trump's firm stance against terrorists in the Middle East and his call for hostages to be freed by the end of the month.

"President Isaac Herzog of Israel expressed gratitude and well wishes to the President-elect in a social media post, hoping for the return of his fellow citizens."

The finance minister, Bezalel Smotrich, stated: "It is refreshing to hear clear and morally sound statements that do not create a false equivalence or call for addressing 'both sides.' This is the way to bring back the hostages: by increasing the pressure and the costs for Hamas and its supporters, and defeating them, rather than giving in to their absurd demands."

On January 20, Trump will be sworn in as the 47th president of the United States, with his team commending his progress in fulfilling his campaign pledges.

"The Trump administration is working towards international peace. In anticipation of the incoming Trump administration, Iran has called off its reprisal attack on Israel and negotiations to end the war in Gaza and Russia's war in Ukraine have accelerated. One former NATO Supreme Allied Commander says America's enemies are 'concerned, they're nervous – [and] they ought to be,'" the Trump War Room said in an email this week, titled, "Promises Kept – And President Trump Hasn't Even Been Inaugurated Yet.""
