US Details Hamas Aid Plan

1,000 US troops deploying to build offshore port for Gaza aid

By Meghann Myers

The Pentagon released details Friday of its plans to construct a temporary pier off the Gaza Strip’s coast to help flow more than 2 million meals a day into the territory, using an established military capability that officials say can build and deploy the structure without having any American troops on the ground.

Over the next 60 days, roughly 1,000 troops will deploy to the Mediterranean Sea to build a floating platform where cargo ships can offload aid onto smaller military vessels, which will transfer them to a causeway attached to the beach, where trucks can pick it up and distribute it within Gaza, Air Force Maj. Gen. Pat Ryder, a Pentagon spokesman, told reporters.

“The concept that is being planned involves the presence of U.S. military personnel on military vessels offshore, but does not require U.S. military personnel to go ashore,” Ryder said.

President Joe Biden first announced the effort on Thursday night during the State of the Union Address.

Another stellar example of Joe’s Handlers foreign policy acumen- abet the enemy of the only true ally in the Middle East.
Brilliant.

  1. Gaza has a seaport. And an airport.

    Why not use those?

    Way more to this. My guess, 100s of thousands of new democrat voters to be resettled in America on the outbound.

      1. That airport needs about a week to get operational with US military engineering assets.

          1. Nope. How’s about I just go hide in the woods for 3 days with beer and my fishing poles instead? 🍺🍺🍺

            Fucking iPhone…no fishing pole emoji? What the fuck. 🤣

    1. More like appease the 100’s of thousands in Michigan, Minnesota and Houston. Oh, and the useless idiots across the country who aren’t antisemitic or pro-terrorist, they’re just making a political statement about Jews being bad and evil and the cause of the suffering of those poor, peaceful refugees huddled and starving in Gaza and the West Bank.

      Recently watched a video wherein a bunch of these idjits found out there are two million Arab Israelis living in Israel. The stammering and confusion would have been funny, if not for the seriousness of the topic. The clip ended with the suggestion of opening a history book.

      Someone else commented that those who are blocking traffic, you know, like the Presidential motorcade, be shipped with each pallet of food. I heartedly support this suggestion.

      I know this is preaching to the choir, but, this is going to end badly for our personnel. The blame of course, will somehow be shifted to Israel. I pray it goes off without an American flag draped casket, but I fear that is a foregone conclusion.

      The only good outcome of Operation Gothic Serpent is the bursting of the delusion the Somalis could be convinced to turn against the warlords that were starving and terrorizing them. Like so many other cultures, these are features, not bugs. I truly don’t understand why this lesson has not been learned.

      Peace will come when the Arabs love their children more than they hate us. – Golda Meir

      1. We all know that this will not end well. I weep for the future Gold Star Families that this stupidity will create.

    1. I still like my plan of dropping dollar bills. Making it rain 1 billion dollars in singles, would be cheaper, safer and accomplish more.

          1. Pack a commercial propane tank with pennies and push it out the back of a C-130. Did I forget to mention the C-4 core of this relief package?

  2. “The concept that is being planned involves the presence of U.S. military personnel on military vessels offshore, but does not require U.S. military personnel to go ashore,” Ryder said.

    Because they don’t have RPGs and other armaments that can travel a couple dozen miles.

    1. I hate to tell Democrats this, but once the pier connects to land it’s “ashore” and so is anyone who steps onto it.

  3. So, they’re going put in modern day “Mulberries” to supply Gaza (aka Hamas) while we ALSO supply Israel as they battle with Hamas? Meanwhile is America is being invaded by criminals, sex traffickers, and drugs that kill 100K per year. Biden, Schumer and Pelosi must be so proud of the America they created..

    1. With ‘preverts’ at the helm all origins, destinations, and underways will be perverted.

      And not in a ‘nice’ way….

    2. We are supplying Israel with arms (with stipulations) and giving monetary aid to Palestinians. I’m sure hamas is saying, no, that money is for the children and displaced, so we won’t touch it.

      Are there any sane people on either side of the aisle willing to speak out? Or are they too busy getting rich by playing both sides of the fence. Diversifying their portfolios as it were.

  4. Fucking j0e…

    We ‘owned’ land in AFG and that didn’t end well even after billions of bribes, but this shitshow will go well?

    Do we even have Flag Officers anymore, or is this just a d*ck s&cking contest where extra points are awarded for senseless Service Members’ deaths and its product: a ‘mostly peaceful’ casus belli?

    How about this?

    NO MORE ABBEY GATES!

  5. Beirut, 1983. Mogadishu, 1993. Hamid Karzai International Airport, 2021. We haven’t learned a damn thing…

    1. We can go ahead write up the story about the hundreds of service members killed now. That way it’ll be ready to go as soon as it’s necessary.

  6. Logistical question…I assume thus thing has to touch the beach for it to work. So who is going to anchor it in, bolt it down, glue it to the Earth, etc,etc…if there will be no US troops on the ground?

        1. I’m thinking more along the lines of “LGBTQ for Palestine.” They’ll be given the opportunity to take flying lessons in their spare time.

    1. Take a $200 case of booze and sell it for $100. It doesn’t matter, it’s all profit! (Something like that… )

  7. One sequel no one wants but Democrat Inc wants to give us – Mogadishu II

    On top of everyone skimming their take and none will reach the actual people.

    1. Mark Bowden needs another book in which he can have dudes talk about getting a “combat jack” some more.

  8. “…which will transfer them to a causeway attached to the beach, where Hamas can pick it up and distribute it on the black market.”

    FIFY

    1. AFTER THE warlords and their minions take what they want, leaving women and children to starve.

    1. Because the present administration is a Cabal of Jew hating
      Communists. Thanks for asking.

  9. It never stops with “just the” (whatever).
    Ask the Vietnam vets who started out as “advisors”.

  10. The words “Gulf of Tonkin Incident” flashed briefly into my mind….I don’t know why.

  11. That’s AWSOME! BUT, it doesn’t change anything when the terrorist group is stealing the food before it gets to the citizens. Maybe the “Squad” should look into that before running their mouths about the Israelis defending themselves from the same group that is actually harming the people they claim to care about!

    But I’m sure that I’m a MAGA, republican, racist, bigot, misogynist, homophobic, xenophobe for saying that!

  12. If MRE Heater Tabs are unavailable, perhaps the DoD can send along self immolating service members.

    1. Not just cooking meals but also they can be used to heat buildings. It’s a green renewable resource until Darwin gets involved, and it will lower emissions after the soldier steps excreting CO2.
