Biden twice refers to Gaza as ‘Ukraine’ when announcing US aid drops

WASHINGTON — President Biden mistakenly announced Friday that he was authorizing US airdrops of aid into “Ukraine” when he was supposed to say the Gaza Strip — another stumble propelling election-year scrutiny of his mental acuity.

The 81-year-old commander-in-chief mixed up the global hot spots twice while hosting Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni in the Oval Office.

“In the coming days, we are going to join with our friends in Jordan and others in providing airdrops of additional food and supplies into Ukraine and seek to continue to open up other avenues into Ukraine, including the possibility of a marine corridor to deliver large amounts of humanitarian assistance,” Biden said.

The president later made clear he was referring to Gaza by adding, without noting his error, “the truth is, aid flowing to Gaza is nowhere nearly enough now.”

White House National Security Council spokesman John Kirby confirmed about 30 minutes later to reporters that Biden “was referring to Gaza” when he said “Ukraine.”

Does he even know what Gaza is or Ukraine? Probably thinks they are his dogs names.

Placing cargo aircraft at low altitudes in a war zone with wild Muslims running around doesn’t sound like a good idea.

In fairness to Biden, the CIA is probably funneling supplies into Ukraine.

Anything airlifted into Gaza goes automatically to Hamas, unless Israel has totally occupied the territory on the ground, which I don’t think has happened yet. Which means Biden has actively enlisted US taxpayer dollars to aid and support an arch-enemy of Israel, a staunch US ally. The mind boggles.

It’s intentional.

Doesn’t want the LIVs to realize that he is helping Russia by resupplying Russia’s allies in Gaza.
