Biden to announce US military-led mission to build port on Gaza coast to boost aid

President Biden will announce during his State of the Union address on Thursday that he’s directing the U.S. military to lead the construction of a port along the coast of Gaza on the Mediterranean Sea to boost the amount of aid getting to Palestinian civilians.

“We know the aid flowing into Gaza is nowhere near enough and nowhere near fast enough. The president will make clear again this evening that we all need to do more and the United States is doing more,” a senior administration official said on a call with reporters.

The port would be able to receive large ships that can bring in food, water, medicine and other supplies into Gaza, which has been under fire for months as Israeli forces carry out shellings and military operations in response to Hamas’ terrorist attacks last October.

Biden will direct the U.S. military to undertake the mission alongside allies and humanitarian partners, a senior administration official said. The project will take “a number of weeks to plan and execute,” and will involve forces already in the region or that will be there soon.

Can you imagine FDR announcing in June 1944 that in addition to our artificial mulberry harbors on Normandy Beach we were going to build one in German territory?

So we’re effectively paying to help build what we paid to help destroy. Supporting both sides as it were, with money we don’t have.

“Biden to announce US military-led mission to build port on Gaza coast to boost aid to Hamas”

Almost fixed:

“Biden to announce US Military-led mission to build port on Gaza coast, to boost aid to Hamas including more concrete for tunnels and expedited delivery of missiles and arms from Iran”

Once the construction is finished on this port the Israelis should blow it to kingdom come.

Yes, I don’t recall that we did very much to help German civilians get the things they needed to live a comfortable life while the war was going on. In fact I pretty sure we spared no effort to deny them those things.

Right.

And I don’t think I am off base, except for perhaps the incorrect use of the term “deep water port”. (I thought about it, and realized a “deep water port” isn’t just a port that is directly located on one of the major oceans of the sea...it has to do with specific infrastructure)

I had to look it up, and “deep water port” has to do with infrastructure that lets vessels (such as LNG tankers and oil tankers) offload their cargos at a distance from shore facilities)

Now I know...:)

The Lord God has said He will bless those that bless Israel and curse those that curse Israel. Joe Biden is cursing Israel. Joe Biden is inviting the wrath of God onto himself, those that support him and our nation. Nothing good will come of this. Biden is giving aid and comfort to Hamas while they attack Israel. God will not allow this.

What a complete waste of money. I don’t know why we are subsidizing aid when the Palestinian people are not helping themselves. These hardships are self-inflicted.

Biden is just trying to buy votes in Dearborn.

Building a deep sea port in Gaza?

Building a deep water port is a massive undertaking that takes decades.

Even mobilizing a military style invasion port will take til the end of the year just to mobilize. and transport.

Biden and Buttiboy can't even get shipping straightened out in the Port of Los Angeles.

This is just one more piece of Biden gesture politics propaganda fabricated to give the appearance of action in an election year while doing nothing productive.

Like air dropping 35,000 MREs into Gaza.
