There are people on social media who spend their time claiming that American soldiers will fight and die for Israel.
Anyone who knows anything about the Biden administration also recognizes that for the joke that it is.
There are 6 Americans still held hostage in Gaza. After the Oct 7 attack, the administration was asked if it would send in a rescue force to get any of the Americans who were held hostage out then. The answer was no.
But Biden finally is sending in the troops. Not to save the hostages from Hamas, but to build a nice pier to supply aid to Hamas supporters in Gaza.
A floating pier and causeway that will be used to deliver critical humanitarian aid by sea to Gaza is expected to take at least one month or possibly as long as two for the US military to build and become fully operational, Pentagon press secretary Maj. Gen. Patrick Ryder said on Friday.
Ryder also said the construction of the pier and causeway will likely require as many as 1,000 US military personnel to complete.
Are any of those personnel going to be in danger?
Official word from the administration is that there will be no ‘boots on the ground’, just in the water. That’s borderline meaningless. And it’s not just Hamas there. The Houthis and Hezbollah have taken to lobbying rockets around and the presence of a sizable contingent of vulnerable U.S. personnel will draw them like flies.
Two months is a whole lot of time in which to plan and execute an attack.
Biden has sent 0 troops to rescue the hostages from Hamas, but he’s sending 1,000 into a war zone to provide aid to Hamas supporters.
He’s also refused to use the military to secure our border by ending the flow of migrant invaders across it.
But once again, Biden has found a way to use the military to aid our enemies. He won’t use the military to protect America, but he’ll use it to send aid to Hamas.

Mr. Greenfield I enjoy your columns and the Front Page.
I believe there is something overlooked. Biden sending US soldiers to use against-in effect-Israel is the first cannon shot.
It is going to be easier and easier to get involved in Middle East problems-and the Jews of Israel (and other nations) are going to take the brunt of the prejudice and bigotry that the armed incursions incite.
If a Jew shoots an American, antisemitism (by accident or in defense-remember the soldier who immolated himself in sympathy with the Gazans) will spring forth-the way a poison ivy springs forth from a bud.
This foray of using Americans to fight in the Middle East will become the salient that allows and legitimizes anti-semitism, and since Jews are a minority (who are envied for their wealth) it will be an easy pogrom for anti-semites and even non anti-semites to proccess and agree on.
I believe Biden’s “peace offering” is the first step. One must remember, it isn’t Biden’s plan it is his puppet masters who pull the strings of a senile and demented Biden. And most of those are anti-semites and anti-Israel.

The USA doing anything in support of Hamas Gazans/Palestinians is a bad, very bad decision.
America/ the US government and military should be doing everything in its power to
destroy/vanquish/crush/exterminate Hamas and the leaders behind the October massacre and their supporters.
Anything less shows the depravity and psychopathy and moral corruption and betrayal that has taken over America and its elite political ruling class.

Reminded me of the artificial harbors (Mulberries) built in France after D-Day 1944.
TruthLaser says
Biden would have lost that war.
BLSinSC says
Which side would he have been on?? He’s been wrong about EVERYTHING he’s ever done so we may have been fighting the ENGLISH !
Algorithmic Analyst says
That’s a definite point.
Gary Littwin says
If the pier is built we should blast it to dust without delay

Putting American soldiers’ lives at risk to appease the Squad ghouls. The unconscionable idea wins again.
Steven Kardas says
Israel should sink the causeway. The United States is aiding their enemy and only prolonging the conflict. Welcome to Bizzarro World. In addition the all the hostages are doomed and must be considered dead. War is hell, get it over with. Crush the enemy completely. Win.
Phil N Blank says
The US Troops will create a no-go zone against Israeli action. I can just see Hamas using the presence of US troops as a safe zone for meetings and rest and regrouping.
NAVY ET1 says
Further proving that this idiotic administration will take ANY common sense solution to a problem, flip it 180 degrees, and proceed from there. Seemingly, it’s not a problem for Biden to send what he deems ‘disposable’ troops into harm’s way if he can score a few brownie points with the woke fringe left contingent of the party. It is an election year, after all, and he has bases to cover.
Angel Jacob says
Gaza terrorists don’t deserve a single penny in aid. They had decades to build an economy and life for themselves with billions of dollars in free money.
Instead they chose to be murderous terrorists.
The current US admin is encouraging and supporting the terrorists and criminals.
The savages only understand the language of force. No amount of rewards, teaching of morality or kindness will ever change their terrorist/criminal behavior. There is such a act as bad genes.
It’s all about savages who will never be civilized VS the entire human civilization.
Kasandra says
Well, there are still some votes to grovel for in Dearborn so why not supply murderous terrorists and their families? And there is no need for this if its purpose is as the administration says, which I doubt. There are hundreds of trucks that go into Gaza from Israel continually. The two biggest impediments are that 1) they can’t find drivers; and 2) because Hamas shoots at the trucks and commandeers them. They then take what they want and sell the rest to Gazan “civilians” at grossly inflated prices to fund their murderous activities. What does the maladministration think will happen with the goodies coming in through this port we’re building? Well, it doesn’t think or know that Hamas will get the supplies (in which case it’s dumb as a post) or it doesn’t mind (in which case it’s evil as sin). Take your pick.

Nassar Hospital, UNRWA, tunnesl in Khan Yunis, these organizations support Hamas terrorists. People are sick of the betrayal of America and Israel…Its tine for the some of these politicians to quit taking drug cartel money and stand up for their own country and people instead of sending money for all these foreign wars, SECURE AMERICA’S BORDERS. I am going to support Israel and donate to Israel instead of the politicians in America. People have had it with traitors. If we have marxists taking over America because our own leaders won’t stand up and fight them, then we will fall, so be it! We are going to do whats right regardless of those who selfish and corrupt. In the meantime we will support Israel and help Israel, and I am not alone in these decisions.
