A US military ship is sailing towards the Middle East, carrying equipment to build a temporary pier off the coast of Gaza, the army says. The support ship, General Frank S Besson, set sail from a military base in the state of Virginia on Saturday. It comes after President Joe Biden said the US would build the floating harbour to help get aid into Gaza by sea. The UN has warned that famine in the Gaza Strip is "almost inevitable" and children are starving to death.

I’m not sure how none of the troops building this would go ashore. Is this a Mulberry?
Temporary??? What’s to stop the Muzzy terrorists from continuing to use it after the US leaves?
where do they intend housing these 1000 troops?
They will just tread water like that one Magnum PI episode.
This idea is terrible.
At least Magnum survived.
And how many rockets do the bad guys have?
Just how many more American military is dementia Joe going to throw away?
.....and what happens WHEN the muzzies bomb it?
Depraved. Directly supplying Hamas.
We shouldn’t build this.
We shouldn’t be in Jordan, Syria, or Iraq.
The Middle East will always be the Middle East.
Joe doesn’t care. He only wants those Hamas supporters to shut upand quit ruining his election prospects. The troops? meh, who cares?
The administration will blame Israel.
This will create a target for the terrorists.
That just keeps the blame with the Jews, as the majority of his administration is Jewish.

WHY????!!! FJB!
Building a port for a proxy of Islam. WTF?
Piers are attached to land, the thing won't be "off the coast".
Biden doesn’t care a fig about starving children. He does care tremendously about losing enough Muslim votes in Michigan to cost him the state. This is just a rank political stunt.
This is how you ask for trouble.
The UN said we should use the existing port.
