That means pouring money into Gaza while insisting that none of the money will go to Hamas and that none of the humanitarian aid will be used for terrorist purposes. It’s just rebuilding infrastructure. Meanwhile, Hamas keeps boasting about how it turns infrastructure into terrorism.
Terrorists’ ability to turn seemingly innocent household commodities into the tools of terror has always created a challenge for peaceful states fighting terror. Fertilizer has been used to build lethal bombs and instead of using tons of cement that Israel permitted into the Gaza Strip for the building of homes, schools and factories, Hamas built 100 kilometers of terror tunnels that Israel destroyed in the recent war.
Now there is another seemingly innocuous construction material that has joined the arsenal of terror: water pipes. There were some reports that Israel was surprised by the high number of rockets – 4,300 – that Hamas and Islamic Jihad terrorists had in their arsenals to launch against civilians in Israeli cities in the recent 11-day Gaza war. Now the Secretary-General of the Palestinian Islamic Jihad has explained this: He bragged that the “resistance engineers” have turned “water pipes… into the rockets that you see.”
Time to rebuild that “infrastructure.”
The United Nations said it had released $22.5 million, which would go towards rebuilding damaged water and electricity infrastructure and disposing of explosive ordnance.
The ordnance can go into the infrastructure. That’s how it works.
President Joe Biden told a White House briefing on Friday that a two-state solution was the only answer to resolving the deep-rooted conflict.
“I’m praying this cease-fire will hold,” he said, before pledging U.S. support to help rebuild Gaza, which is governed by the terrorist group Hamas
It’ll hold until enough of Gaza is “rebuilt” for Hamas to rebuild more rockets.
DavidR says
Somehow when a President who is presented with a major foreign policy issue uses the words “I hope” I feel let down. It makes me wonder just how much he is certain of.
Wellington says
Biden represents the single finest example I know of validating the Peter Principle.
James Lincoln says
True enough, Wellington.
But Sleepy Joe also peeked out on the “level of incompetence hierarchy” several “promotions” before now…
Walter Sieruk says
Joe Biden is following the all the terribly flawed policies of his former boss, Obama, including the awful policy of favoring that wicked murderous jihad terror entity Hamas.
This is because Biden is unable to think for himself. For he is idiot . Worse yet ,since Biden is now sitting in the White House Oval Office masquerading as a genuine US President, he is also a very dangerous idiot.
Keith O says
Throwing money at corrupt terrorists, what could possibly go wrong?
Here an idea.
The US gumbyment purchases US made goods from US companies, uses US owned and operated ships to take the goods to Gaza then employs locals to rebuild the infrastructure under the supervision of an international team with a large Israeli presence.
To a large extent that would bypass Hamas and show the residents that the rest of the world are not the bad guys their dictators portray them to be.
gravenimage says
Israel and the US are already the good guys–this would not convince these thugs.
And if they bypassed Hamas, this would likely be seen as unfair.
Keith O says
True, the msm would portray any western help as oppression.
According to them we should just throw money at Hamas and Co. so they can finish off those evil Zionists.
gravenimage says
Yes–just nuts.
somehistory says
When he is “praying”…just how high is his rearguard?
The Bible clearly says that God does not ****hear**** the wicked, even though they may “say many prayers.”
biden claims to be Christian, and yet, he has no idea what is required, spending more time patting mozlums on the back and giving them everything they ask of him.
The Bible also says, “The one loving violence, my soul certainly hates.” And the Proverb says there are “six things Jehovah hates , seven are detestable to Him.”
violence, murder, lies, feet hurrying to do bad things,…and these are what the mozlums ****live**** and lust for, endlessly.
The “two-state solution” is about as real as the care the members of bm have for little Black children, or as real as sanger’s love of the unborn babies she targeted for death; or as real as a million people actually voting for biden and harris to rule over their lives; or…
There is no “solution” except what they call the “final” one that mozlums seek. A human cannot truly bargain with a rattlesnake that is coiled to strike.
somehistory says
I meant to write a hundred million…rounding out the claims they have made of 75, and more millions as voting tor these two liars.
Infidel says
Have we included Gaza’s infrastructure in our own ‘infrastructure’ bill?
gravenimage says
Good question, Infidel…
owensgate says
Just to be clear…
“Infrastructure” means tunnels, rockets, rocket launchers, vehicles and new offices for Hamas, AP, Al Jazeera and CNN. No?

As Biden ‘Rebuilds’ Gaza Infrastructure, Hamas Brags It Turned Water Pipes Into Rockets
……………..
Yep–that says it all.
I read an article–probably ten years ago now–about Israeli innovation. But this was pretty grim stuff, that should never have been necessary. Muslims in Gaza were using metal sewer pipes as rockets, and so had raw sewage in the streets.
The Israelis developed a heavy-duty PVC (plastic) pipe that was sturdy enough to handle sewage, but melted when used as weaponry.
The Israelis were very proud of this invention–but didn’t explain why they were rebuilding Hamas’s sewer system to begin with, considering how it came to be damaged in the first place.
I thought they should just have to wallow in their own sh*t.
OLD GUY says
Why are we rebuilding Gaza? The American TAX PAYER once again is footing the bill in another foreign hate America country. Our political leaders have been compromised. While our infrastructure in small town America need funding, our political leaders are sending OUR MONEY to rebuild GAZA
Andrew Blackadder says
Methinks somebody should hand old Joe a copy of the Hamas Manifesto as they dont mention anything about a Two State solution, but rather the total destruction of Israel…
Hamas only started this crap because they know that old Joe is more or less on their side, and if Trump still sat in the Oval Office, and should have happened, then they would not have tried any of this crap.
muslims around the World are laughing at the USA right now, but Israel knows who, and what, they are dealing with on a daily basis and act accordingly… Shalom.
