The Biden administration and Israeli officials have held secret talks on stationing American troops in Gaza after Hamas is defeated, according to a report. The US has told Benjamin Netanyahu that a plan is needed for government of the Strip if they succeeded in driving out the terrorists. Israel has repeatedly stated that it does not want to occupy Gaza, but has also said that Hamas can no longer be allowed to rule the enclave.

As of January 2022, the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) had approximately 176,500 active-duty personnel.

Yet USA soldiers should risk their lives for there???

Since Israel appears to have been providing electricity, water, hospitals and work permits to the Palestinians, all they have to do is stop providing anything to them and Palestine will essentially cease to exist.

Translation: US troops to fight Israel’s ground war.

I’m sure Biden’s considering the Somalia technique too: bring ‘em all to Minneapolis.

You beat me to it. That was the exact example I was going to cite.

For some reason, modern American presidents seem to think we must be involved in everything, everywhere. And damn the cost in dollars and blood.

As you noted, even my hero Ronald Reagan fell to that temptation.

It must be said that one modern American president actively resisted that siren call. And that president was Donald Trump.

“After Hamas is defeated”

Generalplan Ost.

Let’s see if Israel can defeat them first.

I’m not fooled by this man. He is on Hamas’ side, not Israel’s. All the crap he has done in recent days is for show - to make people think he is on the side of Israel.

The real power behind his administration is dedicated to wiping out Western Civilization, in which they include Israel. They are willing to give a little to gain a lot. They are through giving. Now they have reverted back to their true selves: hate Israel, hate the USA, hate Western Civilization, love and promote savages.

Not US troops to fight Israel’s ground war, but US troops on target duty after Israel’s ground war.

Probably the best solution would be men from neighboring Arab nations.

Oh, so Israel bombs a ‘refugee’ camp where a Hamas commander is and the world goes insane, but the world is silent on the massacre of Israeli men, women and children. Got it.

Only treasonous prick like Biden would put US troops into death trap like this.

You really think US troops will be in an advisory position?
It’s been almost 2 weeks since Netanyahu vowed a ground offensive into Gaza.
Why hasn’t it happened yet?
