You say floating dock, I say sitting duck: How many servicemen and servicewomen are going to die as a result of this floating dock into Gaza for the purpose of delivering humanitarian aid?
American Thinker ^ | 03/15/2024 | Peter McArdle

My expertise in life is rather limited.

In fact, the only things I’m really well versed in are dental care, raising a family, and pouring a beer just so into a frozen mug resulting in a perfect, frothy one-inch head.

That being said, you’ve got to be out of your freakin’ mind to consider building a floating dock into Gaza for the purpose of delivering humanitarian aid.

Of course, our practically petrified puppet in the White House is out of his freakin’ mind as his senile dementia proceeds apace.

But my point is, if you build it -- the floating dock, not a practically petrified puppet -- a certain number of Americans are going to die.

And they’ll die in the service of a population that hates America and Israel in equal measure, and whose Hamas brethren would like nothing better than to do to U.S. soldiers what they just did to more than a thousand innocent Jews.

Even if we created a temporary military base, complete with an airfield, on the land side of the dock, some Americans would still die (see Kabul Airport, bombing and U.S. Cole, bombing). I mean, they don’t call Hamas 'terrorists' for nothing.

But as that well-meaning, elderly man with a bad memory yelled out during his State of the Union harangue, there will be no American boots on the ground!

The poor souls tapped to serve this mission will be the very definition of sitting ducks. And their Navy and Air Force protectors will be, as Sleepy Joe’s puppet master might say, leading from behind. They will get involved only after missiles, RPGs, drones, and God knows what else, rain down death and destruction upon our servicemen and servicewomen.

Why are we even considering building a pier for known terrorists to use to offload anything? These guys we just got out of a 20 year war with.

“Why is this so obvious to everyone except Biden?”

He understands perfectly. He’s on the side of evil wherever it is. Look at what he’s doing on the former border.

Seabees made airfields in a couple of days in the South Pacific during WW 2.

“Why is this so obvious to everyone except Biden? Perhaps they want Americans dragged into this war. It has to be intentional because it just can’t be stupidity.”

I am sure that it is intentional because only the front men in this the third OBungles term are really stupid. The back room folks in the O’Biden cartel are well aware of their every move, each calculated to provide a specific result. Does every move work? No, of course not. But enough disruption of the traditional American way of life works to their benefit.

It cannot be said strongly enough: these people must be stopped. IMHO jail time will not suffice. We must do unto them at least what they seek to do unto us.

You know what I mean.

It’s being built so hamas will essentiallly have our troops as human shields - so that Israel won’t retaliate militarily against Hamas.

I had to laugh when the airdrops went badly.

Reminds me of a movie scene somewhere...

Sounds something like the Mulberry concrete floating docks the Brits built for Normandy in WWII to help off load supplies after the beach head was secured.

Its a thumb in the eye of Israel and a chance to get Muslim Votes. Israel will blow it up almost as soon as its built. Yes, food and water will comeoff of this dock, but so will more rockets and bullets to kill Jews.

NONE.

This pier building mission is cover to import 750,000-1,000,000 pali sand rats via Italy, into the USA.

This will be a protected mission.

Fundamental transformation, don’t cha’ know.

Weapons deliveries, coming up. Of course the pier will be guarded by US/UN troops who will shoot Israelis coming to stop the weapons shipments.

Biden cannot be understimated in his ability to blow the entire world to smithereens.

LEAVE ISRAEL ALONE, back off of Ukraine and let nature takes its course.

This dock is going to
turn into a two-way
avenue.
Aid in, refugees out.
The ships delivering aid
won’t be leaving that
dock with empty holds.

This dock isn’t simply to bring food in. It is to take Muslims from Gaza out and ultimately bring them to the USA. Nobody anywhere else wants them. Sen. Tuberville says the plan is bring in 750,000 for resettlement.
