Biden Humanely Aids Hamas
US military aircraft airdrop thousands of meals into Gaza in emergency humanitarian aid operation
BY TARA COPP AND SEUNG MIN KIM
WASHINGTON (AP) — U.S. military C-130 cargo planes dropped food in pallets over Gaza on Saturday in the opening stage of an emergency humanitarian assistance authorized by President Joe Biden after more than 100 Palestinians who had surged to pull goods off an aid convoy were killed during a chaotic encounter with Israeli troops.
Three planes from Air Forces Central dropped 66 bundles containing about 38,000 meals into Gaza at 8:30 a.m. EST (3:30 p.m. local). The bundles were dropped in southwest Gaza, on the beach along the territory’s Mediterranean coast. The airdrop was coordinated with the Royal Jordanian Air Force, which said it had two food airdrops Saturday in northern Gaza and has conducted several rounds in recent months.
“The amount of aid flowing to Gaza is not nearly enough and we will continue to pull out every stop we can to get more aid in,” President Joe Biden said Saturday in a post on the social media site X, formerly known as Twitter.
Our tax dollars at work. The 38K MRE drop is plainly a sop to the chattering class as virtue signaling the Administration has Done Something about the Jews in Gaza.

I hope they were all pork patties and ham meals.
You beat me to it. Dehydrated pork patties and ham slices.
Ham and motherf*ckers!
Ham & Lima Beans C Rats right out of the box, EX Lax not included..
I’m sure the local tap water has the same effect as Ex Lax
Unrelated new flash…
SCOTUS: 9-0 Trump CANNOT be DQ-ed from the 2024 ballots.
The Commie-sar to tell us how they were wrong and he has the inside truth in 3-2-1…
9-0. Imagine that.
I’m already seeing posts with hashtags screaming #VOTEBLUENOMATTERWHO
Can’t fix stupid.
And that’s how we got to where we are.
No, but it can be killed.
I felt a disturbance in the Force, as if thousands of voices cried out in anguish and rage. Only to be drowned out by the laughter of millions.
The ground shook in Maine.
I had just posted that news here before jumping on this thread looking for Commissar posts. Thanks for providing this information.
I propose a solution to the hostage crisis that would benefit both the Israelis and the US. I propose we swap biden and harris for the remaining hostages. By the time hamas has had them for a couple weeks I am sure they would be begging to surrender.
IMHO simply trying to foist those two on someone could be considered an Inhumane Act of War!
MRE’s for thee but C rats for me.
We had C Rats on board the LPH 3 and in the NYSARNG when I was in 1976-1977 and for awhile our CO was the NG Captain TAH had on the site who was involved in something as which I can’t remember. I looked at my DD214 but he was gone when I left the NG. I sent Jonn my paperwork confirming where the Armory was out in Suffok County Long Island NY. Which matched the one on TAH.
Ahhhh, chopped ham and eggs were always ok by me!!!
Omlette with Ham later, same here.
Those HA halal rations taste considerably better than MREs. They don’t have the same nutritional content, but a handful of bacon added on top makes up a lot of the difference.
But of course– everything’s better with bacon.
Anyone else hear reports of young, male scholars volunteering to coordinate the pickup and distribution of said air drops and keeping the women and children safe by chasing them away from the collection points?
Probably a few bundles of cash mistakenly embedded in one or
more pallets.
Sounds like a good opportunity to do some hunting over a baited field.
I’m sure Yehiya Sinwar, Gaza head of Hamas currently in hiding, will suggest future drop zone locations to best resupply those (underground armed individuals) in need.
Let us hope that they were all pork MRE’s.
Ham slice w/ natural juices
Freeze-dried peaches!!!!!
How about peaches, packed in their own juices, still in the cans as they’re shoved out of the plane. Would it be the load masters fault if the pallet they were packed on fell apart as it made its way to the drop zone?
Maybe a scratch and dent drop, or something that had no labels. Kind of like a surprise meal.
I had a little excursion to Somalia in 1993, my TACSAT team supported Belgian forces in Kismayo. Belgian rations are in a box, a full day’s ration, most of it canned. You’d see someone on the side of the road, hand up, begging for food, and someone would toss a ration box from a truck… at convoy speed…
Oww…
That would have been fun to see.
Oddly,, I liked them. I guess I’m “odd”!
PORK in BBQ Sauce!
Sausage with breakfast syrup MRE. That thing was nothing but protein and sugar. I ate one of those prior to “Nick at Nite” in Basic and I was bouncing off the walls of the trench!🤣
So how long before some “renegade faction” of Hamas pumps a few MANPADS at those C-130s while they’re making their runs?
Nut unh. The Palestinians are mostly peaceful. They would never attack anyone that was trying to help them. Again. Pinky promises all around.
Putting USAF aircraft and crews at risk to airdrop pallets of HDRs to Hamas. Insane.
WTF. I say again: WTF.
Surprised it hasn’t happened already yet TBH. I give it two weeks tops.
Yeah, our government is a bunch of fucking clowns. 🤡
Do they have to use parachutes to drop those pallets? I mean, we generally make some pretty tough pallets….they wouldn’t break when the hit the ground….
Just a thought.
They need to make sure at least one of those C-130’s is of the AC-130J variety. You’ll love the name. It’s replacing some of the existing SPECTRE gunships. Google it if you dare, the pattern is full…
That was nice of him.
FJB.
Plus, just in… Houthi sh*t continues and gets worse in Red Sea– 3x major undersea Internet/telecommunications cables cut:
https://www.yahoo.com/news/three-underwater-data-cables-red-143239992.html
P.S. Linebacker II (not Rolling Thunder) upon the Houthis and selected Iranian people/items may be required to stop this BS.
Yeah, well that ain’t happening any time soon.
Sadly
Not technically “airdrop” related, but it’s time to step up your game, my Naval Aviator friends:
https://gizmodo.com/pilot-drawing-penis-see-ya-sky-ohio-flightradar24-1851285185
What a dick.
Could this be considered a dick move?
a phallic navigational maasterpiece.
Can’t wait for the first report of pallets burning in and causing “civilian” casualties and us putting ourselves on the hook for millions in reparations.
Call me crazy but why don’t we do this over the beach? Phase one: deliver rations to beach. Phase two: withdraw. Phase thee: drop a series of JDAMs on the rations because we already know it’s Hamas who will be picking them up (and we might as well get some BDA for the rations we are already wasting).
There was a similar issue with that post Desert Storm. Refugees (Kurds IIRC) were running to pallets during descent and getting crushed. Quick remedy was to fill big ass open-top boxes with humanitarian MRE’s (yeah, I know), and kick the whole thing off the ramp from altitude. It’s raining MRE’s.
Like this? Cool!
If they can’t figure out that a mechanical bird I’d dropping shit from the sky is going to hurt worse than a feathered bird dropping shit, the deserve what they get.
The early bird may get the worm, but the second mouse gets the cheese.
Yeah, some of ’em got killed when a parachute failed to open and a case of MREs burned in– why the “humanitarian pier” is now a thing.
Supreme Court rules in favor of Donald Trump, Colorado must keep him on ballot. I assume all states are included.
And whose side is FJB on anyway. Setting stipulations for US support for weapons, while simultaneously going around Israel’s blockade of supplies.
Trying to play both sides of the fence?
yup
There’s going to be a need for those. Hope the storeroom is fully stocked.
This could prove to be a lucrative investment:

I bet this is one stock purchase that was completely ignored by our betters. They could have padded their portfolio nicely with that.
I should have put that info on earlier which I got from Newsmax. I sent in the hearing into David earlier.
Sorry, I go off topic on occasion. Didn’t mean to hijack topic being discussed.
Just got it, thanks. Been reading about it.
Imagine the DC office doing this during WW2 or having cease fires for the civilians or Generals that had to be voted on to be a General, and Generals who acted like the present day President Trump got voted out, I’d be speaking German.
My bad.
Are they using the GPS guided pallet system that we’ve been testing for a while. It allows higher altitude drops with better accuracy.

And as a last resort: 8970-01-434-3192 Survival, Abandon Ship Ration.
So only food pallets, no Daisy Cutters (or the replacement MOAB) were dropped….seems like a lost opportunity.
You’re my boy, Blu!!
I think that’s SPC Owen, he delivered them in DS/DS.
Claw, you got the NSN for a “Kaboom, Earth-Shattering, 1ea?
Nope, not right off hand. I loaned my copy of TM31-210 to my BIL. But if he ever gives it back, I’ll look it up.
Did you loan him any tools as well?
That’s just a photo I found on the world wide thingy. My supervisor and a few others made their way over to take some pics with the BLU 82s as well.
In other news, the UN report was just released. Hamas is guilty of war crimes for systematically raping Israeli women in Oct 7th. Further, proof of hostages being raped and tortured has been “verified” by the UN. “It is unknown if these rapes and tortures are continuing”.
https://www.reuters.com/world/middle-east/un-team-says-rape-gang-rape-likely-occurred-during-hamas-attack-israel-2024-03-04/
The UN will respond with a strongly worded letter.
As usual:
.
The people that claim 10-7 was faked astound me. I guess it’s easier than admitting you’re on the side of rapists and murderers?
Faked how? Hamas took full credit for the attack. There were spontaneous celebrations in Gaza.
https://www.washingtonpost.com/world/2023/10/08/israel-hamas-war-security-police-jewish/
They claim that the whole thing was a Mossad op, that we can’t know for sure that that it’s Hamas in all those videos.
Yeah, the theory is dumber than a box of rocks, but I find it helpful to know what the other side is thinking.
Evil Joos always commit their bad behvior for them… unless it’s “haram, but better strive and fall short than not strive at all” with the Johnnie Walker Black, of course.
And, oh no, five (5) people were killed on the ground because chaos and stupid sh*t happened on the unsecured drop zones.
