DeSantis Announces Plan to Evacuate Floridians Stranded in Israel
The Daily Signal ^ | 10/23 | Jennie Taer

Posted on 10/13/2023 10:28:00 AM PDT by spirited irish

Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis announced Thursday an effort to rescue Floridians who are trying to leave Israel amid its war with Hamas terrorists.

The announcement by DeSantis, a Republican, is part of an executive order he signed to respond to Hamas terrorists’ surprise attack Saturday on Israel, which left hundreds killed, maimed, or kidnapped, according to a copy of the governor’s order....

DeSantis signed a document called Executive Order 23-208 (Emergency Management–Impacts of War in Israel).

“There are more than 20,000 Americans, including Floridians, in Israel who wish to return home but are unable to do so,” DeSantis said in a written statement.

“He wants to be President of the states that vote for him.”

This is foolish and pandering. While it may display the appearance of concern, it is going to send American people into a war zone where Americans are unprepared for large scale combat and are going to be targets of attack and/or kidnapping and torture. I can promise you that state militias or private citizens are not prepared for this type of violence and harm to be used on them and the people they are going after.

Additionally we are not currently in this battle with boots on the ground in open combat and it needs to stay that way after our failures in such countries as Vietnam, Afghanistan, and our messed up efforts to stop terrorism even within our own borders.

It is the responsibility of the governors to press the federal government to do their job. And if it displays the failure of that unit, which does have the manpower, equipment, and training for this type of work, whether it chooses to use it or not, but it is their responsibility and the governors should publicly insist they use it. Then if they fail again then they are not doing their job and should be voted out as soon as possible. Sending Americans in without the above capacity and the only thing I can promise you is they are going to get people killed, more than what could get caught now. It’s reckless and not well thought out other than pandering for votes. If he doesn’t do it, he’s trolling for votes. If he does, he’s sending people into harm. Lose/lose.

Trump didn’t undermine Israel. It was personally directed at Netanyahu who hadn’t been stellar in his support for his own people.

So desanctus is going to indemnify and insure an airplane, and it’s associated air crew, to act as a charter into a war zone?

Like I said, desanctimonious is going to create his own airline?

If he pulls this off, he might just save his sorry political butt. Even Trump couldn’t say anything negative. If anything, Trump might send his Jet to try and steal Desantis’ thunder!

It drives you people crazy when DeSantis does the stuff that Trump should be doing but isn’t.

Trump already has an airplane. Why isn’t he doing this?

If he fails yeah condemn his pandering...if he succeeds you can still say he was pandering but “attaboy” him at the same time. Desantis has governed well and Florida has recovered fairly well after several hurricanes. No one is complaining and even the media has found nothing he has done wrong in the damage control area...or else you’d have heard about it...morning, noon and night!

desanctimonious is just trying to do anything he can to get attention now, since his campaign is flailing so much and he’s irrelavent as a presidential candidate anymore.

What he’s doing is just for p.r.

Maybe desantis should get kitted up and go to Israel as a door kicker, like his campaign ad tried to portray him as, if he’s that desperate for p.r.
