Biden to Announce Plans to Build Port in Gaza for Humanitarian Aid Shipments
One official stressed: “The current plan doesn’t include any U.S. boots on the ground in Gaza.”
President Joe Biden will announce during his State of the Union address plans to build a port on Gaza’s coast to help with humanitarian aid.
The officials, who spoke on the condition of anonymity to preview the announcement, said the operation will not require that American troops be on the ground to build the pier that is intended to allow more shipments of food, medicine and other essential items.
The officials did not provide details about how the pier would be built. One noted that the U.S. military has “unique capabilities” and can do things from “just offshore.”
Apparently, the building has already started:
Details: Aid will arrive at the temporary port via Cyprus, U.S. officials said in a briefing with reporters ahead of the State of the Union.
- The U.S. military will establish a temporary pier in the sea off the Gaza coast with a causeway that will allow trucks to bring aid to shore. National Security Council chief of staff Curtis Ried will head up the effort from the U.S. side.
- U.S. soldiers will take part in the construction, but from U.S. Navy vessels offshore. “The current plan doesn’t include any U.S. boots on the ground in Gaza,” a senior U.S. official said.
Absolutely, Israel doesn't want or need this. Biden refuses to let Israel win. American troops are being inserted into the conflict so Biden can win the Michigan pro-Hamas vote. https://t.co/vXBzhnA8mz

Well look here. US forces will be exposed to attacks from Hamas—unless of course Team Biden produces the bounty of fuel, food and materiel that they expect. As Obama once said of Biden, "Don't underestimate Joe's ability to fuck things up." https://t.co/nh3jer50DE

So the U.S. military is literally building infrastructure for Hamas—which is formally designated a terrorist group by that very same U.S. military/State Dept.
Evil. https://t.co/2eSACc9p0C

“The current plan doesn’t include any U.S. boots on the ground in Gaza,” a senior U.S. official said.
So… they’ll be standing in the water?
During his State of the Union address, he will order the US Army and Navy to establish a temporary port in Gaza so more humanitarian aid can get to Palestinians in need. So, Joe decided enough! Enough with the airdrops. We’re going in big time to keep Hamas in business!
How do you say gag me with a spoon in Arabic?
There are over 300 trucks of food and supplies sitting at the Gaza checkpoints donated by Israel. They can’t find anyone crazy enough to drive them in.
This plan of a port to buy the Hamas votes in the US is the same as buying off the student debt vote. Sick.
Congress needs to act immediately cutting all funding for any of this nonsense.
The Dems infatuation with Muslim terrorists is unfathomable
This is gonna be a goat f#%k.
My first outburst over hearing of this. Goat Screw.
A monkey F”$_&–+ a football also came to mind.
If the infrastructure is completely offshore, who runs the land operation to ensure it’s not like the airdrop?
I propose a new kind of Peace Corps division be created.
This division will be make up of only Ivy League graduates, woke teachers and exclusively LGBTQIA+ people and they/them/theirs be sent to Gaza only to help Hamas unload the ships and disburse the foreign aid.
And, they/them/theirs have to stay (alive) there at least 6 months before we/us would review their application to forgive their student loans.
Excellent idea
How about all those Palestine numbnuts clogging traffic and bursting into classrooms to harass Jews. They can now put their money where their mouth is.
Have you pitched the idea as a new reality tv show? I think it has promise.
I wonder how many Americans will be taken hostage by Hamas?
And covert IDF operations will probably be done to sink the pier, or blow it up, and US servicemen will probably be killed.
This is going to turn into a disaster.
They already have American hostages and Biden doesn’t give a shit and apparently the American people 🤷♂️ dont care
Biden doesn’t care about those hostages because they’re Joos. American servicemen might be different; for them he’d pay ransom, which is even worse.
If Israel were to sink the pier, they would make damn sure not to harm any US servicemen. Even at the cost of their own servicemen’s lives.
Biden evidently wants this “conflict” to remain funded (and therefore unresolved) for a very long time . . . or at least until mid-November. The Honchos in Iran must have ordered a few rounds of drinks when they heard this news.
I’m quite sure they clicked glasses and said “money well spent”. Cheers
What will be Slo Joe’s response when Hamas fires on it? Will he blame it on the Israelis?
I was wondering exactly the same thing. It is not in either Hamas’s or the Israeli’s best interests to allow this to go to completion. The chances that it will succeed are therefore pretty close to nil.
Why would they fire on it when they can simply confiscate everything that goes through it?
It will also work for rocket shipments.
Only if they leave it after they’re done with it. The responsible thing would be to keep control of it until the mission is complete, and then destroy it.
Even then, so long as Israel maintains the sea blockade, a pier won’t help them bring in rockets.
And how would maintaining control of it prevent rockets and ammunition moving over it?
Because you know that inspecting cargoes and disallowing anything would not be in the best interests of the narrative (it might be considered “oppressive”).
Keeping control of it would absolutely prevent rockets from moving over it, because the supplies would be coming from the US government, so unless it was deliberately shipping rockets there wouldn’t be any.
And Israel is still maintaining the sea blockade. USN ships are allowed through; others not.
So, US taxpayers will be paying to build a port to help terrorists.
Absolutely disgusting.
And if it means that construction on a couple of VA hospitals gets suspended for two or three years, well we’re all in this together.
But typical of the Brandon Administration.
Traitor Joe is hoping this stunt will help him to get back into Tlaib’s good graces.
And oh by the way, a port that would enable the uncontrolled import of weapons and munitions into a proven terrorist nation.
But the Dems probably think that’s a plus.
The purpose and idea is not to help terrorists but to help the civilian population (almost all of which supports the terrorists, but most of which does not actively participate in terrorist activities).
The inevitable outcome is that the terrorists would benefit, just as with the airdrop, and just as with all humanitarian aid. Israel made a huge mistake when it caved in to world pressure at the beginning of the war, and backed down on its initial announcement that not a drop of water or a watt of electricity or any aid at all would be allowed in until the hostages were released.
Disgusting and evil. Crime boss, Biden, blatantly pandering to the Jew-hating, Islamofascist, Muslim supremacists and terrorism sympathizers in Michigan and elsewhere in the U.S. Nothing more need be said.
U.S. taxpayer money and military might are now bringing undeserved succor, sustenance and “jizya” tribute to the utterly vile, goose-stepping, genocidal Muslim terrorists and Islamofascists of Gaza. There is no meaningful distinction between Gazan “civilians,” and, Hamas. Hamas was popularly elected by the civilian populace, and, many “civilians” gleefully took part in, and/or, celebrated, the genocidal murders, rapes, atrocities and kidnappings of 10/7.
The Fakestinians started this war; they are not “victims,” except of their own stupidity and their own fealty to the evil, supremacist, totalitarian and belligerent ideology of “Submission.” To suggest, as crime boss, Biden, does, that the Fakestinians are victims who bear no responsibility whatsoever for their violent deeds in service of Islamic “holy war,” represents the height of stupidity, fecklessness and moral bankruptcy.
No doubt the vile and evil Dhimmi-crats would be happy to also ship canisters of Zyklon-B to the goose-stepping, Islamofascist Fakestinian terrorists in Gaza. They’d also ship weapons in, if they thought they could get away with it.
The whole world will come together to support Hamas-Gaza
Islamofascists won’t allow shipments of foreign aid from Red Cross, it must be rebranded as Red Crescent, or they won’t let it pass to muslims in the street. Same with foreign aid from non-muslim countries that are regarded as enemy of muslims, such as from USA.
The only way to get the aid through is to use the Red Crescent, or via conduit muslim country like Egypt. Otherwise the islamofascists will sabotage the deliveries, and then blame IDF. This going to blow up in Dementia Joe’s face like afghanistan?
It should.
Haven’t you heard? Brandon says the Afghanistan pullout was a fantastic success! The only people who say otherwise are spreading disinformation and will be spoken to by the FBI shortly.
This is insane.
Feeding Gazans is not the responsibility of the US. Quite the opposite, actually.
This is giving aid and comfort to the enemy … once again from the dems. They love their treason.
What Traitor Joe and his junta are really doing is setting Americans up as human shields for the despicable Gaza scum against the Israelis.
This is the most horrible idea anyone has ever had.
It’s just Joe maintaining his undisputed lead in the Democrat race for superlatives (“history’s worst” category).
Nah, there have been much worse ideas, even just in the last few years. Never underestimate the power of people to come up with bad ideas.
All the more reason for the IDF to finish Rafah quickly.
To be delivered right into the hands of Hamas.
I guess there’s money to be made funding both sides of the war.
Not like Joe has innovated this — as usual he is just plagiarizing others: the Rothschilds and the Krupps.
The Biden administration has officially taken the side of Hamas. Since they say that no US troops will be on the ground, how can they prevent Hamas from seizing the supplies. At a minimum the aid that they will be supplying to the Hamas terrorists will cost the lives of many Israeli soldiers. In addition, weapons will be smuggled in with the aid to kill even more Israelis.
“The Biden administration has officially taken the side of Hamas”
Echo chambers are such fascinating things. Militant students and Michigan muslims are continually excoriating Joe for backing Israel.
Hoping Bibi makes the fool out of him again
Islamofascist wearing suicide vest going to blow this up with maximum collateral damage for viral vid?
Dementia Joe is eating ice cream.
… And the AP will report it as an Israeli airstrike.
Since he’s now acting like the president of Gaza maybe we can make a deal.
The IDF should sabotage this every night. Sink the floating piers.
And, how many members of Congress are going to oppose this? A lot of them talk a good story, but when it comes time to save our money from supporting terrorists, they remain eerily silent.
Let me guess…they want to put the UN in charge of the aid. UNRWA to the rescue! Antisemetic, Hamas riddled UNRWA.
If “no boots on the ground” means Hamas – or the UN hiring Hamas members – will be running this entry port then it’s guaranteed to be importing military supplies – and that any actual “humanitarian” and “civilian infrastructure” supplies will be skimmed off by Hamas.
The anti-Semite Dems, the mass media (but I repeat myself), and the UN never seem to remember that Gaza shares a border with more than just Israel. If we MUST feed the enemies of civilized behavior so they can safely continue beheading babies and raping dead civilians build a combined sea/ground entry port complex on the Egyptian border in cooperation with Egypt. NOT to be administered by Gazans themselves.
Not if all the supplies are coming from the US. It doesn’t matter who is running things on the receiving side, so long as there are no military or dual use goods supplied none will be received either. But yes, that would mean that whatever is supplied will be received by Hamas.
This is not being done to support merely American aid. It is to provide a port to all of those other countries who actually do support Hamas, et al.
Huh? Where did you see that information?
What could Hamas do with a militarized offshore port facility?
I ask because neither my tinfoil hat nor I have a competent grasp of the geomilitary politics of this area.
So Daddy Deep-Pockets uses many, many Yankee Dollah to build a state of the art offshore “relief” facility in Gaza, designed to house and be manned by soldiers. Some indeterminate time later, Biden executes his patented Afghanistan Clusterfuck* and the base ends up “indefinitely” in the hands of Hamas. Now, how could they use that against Israel? What advantage does it give them that they lack?
*Kinda sounds like one of those cutesie names that con men give to their signature scams, doesn’t it? And not by coincidence.
Palis have ever had anything resembling navy, or coast guard. They might have some speed boats with machine guns mounted.
*never had
Remember when Israel had to do a naval blockade to prevent “aid” fleets from landing arms, ammunition, and terrorist reinforcements over the beach into Gaza?
Well forget that. Now they would have a port and the implied right to land whatever they desire there without interference. The UN and the press will ensure that.
This is criminally stupid on so many levels. Once again Biden will make us the laughing stock of the world for our utter foolishness and naivety.
Last but not least, it will put targets on the backs of US servicemen and mission creep will have US troops on the ground in Gaza, which is exactly what Hamas wants for many reasons. Been there, done that, Beirut, 1983.
The existence of a pier creates neither the right nor the ability to run things through the blockade. It certainly does not imply a “right to land whatever they desire there without interference”.
The blockade will continue for as long as Israel finds it necessary. Obviously Israel will allow US military ships through the blockade, but not anyone else.
There is a reason why the former Yasser Arafat International Airport in Gaza doesn’t exist anymore. Israel chopped the runways up with bulldozers during the 2nd Intifada so it couldn’t be used to import arms and terrorists. But it’s not 2000 anymore and eventually the Israeli operations against Hamas will end.
No port built by the US will be getting chopped up and any blockade will be problematic. The UN for instance will have full access to it. Of course there is no way the UN would be smuggling anti-Israel people and materials… right?
Then there will be international pressure for the Gazans to be able to use that port to support their economy. Pressure that Israel isn’t going to be able to resist in the long term. At best that port will be a major pain in the ass and a threat to Israel, At worst it will eventually be a major terrorist support facility.
The blockade has been going for years, and will continue indefinitely. Why would it stop?
Agree with last paragraph. It is putting americans in harm’s way.
I seriously doubt any real soldiers signed up to give and comfort to Hamas.
No. NO. NO! NO!! NO!!! etc.
This may be the stupidest idea yet from this pharmaceutically propelled husk of a human being.
How many ridiculous policies can one administration foist upon us?
This mendacious and consummately evil administration seems to spend all its time doubling down on ways to undercut and destroy what is left of the American republic,
Well, from “no boots on the ground”, I conclude that Egypt is deeply involved, and at last, we’re gonna see the levitation technology that built the pyramids.
How else can they build a port into Gaza without “boots on the ground” in Gaza? The port’s gotta touch the land at some point, or what, they unload ships then dump the cargo into the ocean on the shore side?
Why not just build a Concentration Camp in Gaza so the Arab Muslims occupying it can have more convenient place to exterminate Jews?
For me this brings back bad memories of Beirut. So much for the notion that old Joe has “decades of experience”. The U.S. government just keeps repeating the same fucking mistakes in the Middle East over and over again.
My friend, he has decades of experience but that doesn’t mean he learned from it.
