“Dumbo Drop” Illustrative Of Another Moment When President Biden Embarrassed, Humiliated By Prime Minister Netanyahu. Is Success One MRE For 1.65% Of 2.3 Million Residents Of Gaza When Likely Less?

Dumbo Drop” Illustrative Of Another Moment When President Biden Embarrassed, Humiliated By Prime Minister Netanyahu. 

38,000 MREs Equals One Meal For 1.65% Of 2.3 Million Residents In Gaza- If Those Who Obtained An MRE Retained One MRE, Which Is Unlikely.  A Milestone Of Success For The White House? 

When Will President Biden Hold Accountable The State Of Israel?

The White House: “We know we have to move with a sense of alacrity.”  What does alacrity mean?  Oxford Dictionary: “brisk and cheerful readiness.”  What is “cheerful” about this expensive and inefficient Dumbo Drop when the  reason(s) it is required is due to obstacles in place by the government of the State of Israel.

United States taxpayers borrow annually and are scheduled to continue to do so through 2028 under a memorandum of understanding signed during the Obama-Biden Administration (2019-2017) approximately US$4 billion which is provided to the government of the State of Israel.

The Biden-Harris Administration (2021- ) has since October 2023 sought an additional approximately US$14.9 billion primarily in military assistance to the State of Israel.  The United States Congress has not yet approved this spending.

The White House: “Our C-130s dropped 38,000 meals [Meals Ready to Eat (MRE)] along the coastline of Gaza, allowing for civilian access to the critical assistance.  And those locations were chosen specifically as areas where we thought people would be able to best access the aid.  There were 66 total bundles, 22 on each aircraft, which were dropped into Gaza to help alleviate the intense hunger and desperate situation there.” 

Using a 20th Century Tactic.  A “Berlin Airlift” in the 21st Century.  The White House: “This will be part of a sustained effort, in conjunction with our international partners, to scale up the amount of life-saving aid we’re getting into Gaza.”  Any scaling up will require substantial increase from what is providing 1.65% of the population of Gaza with one meal.  This distribution statistic only if each person who had access to the MREs only took one, which is unlikely.  Thus, the number may be .85% of the population of Gaza.

Think about the circumstances.  The Biden-Harris Administration with its consistent “no daylight” commercial, economic, financial, humanitarian, military, and political support to its “partner” the government of the State of Israel, where Joseph Biden, 46th President of the United States, in what has become a nauseous display of responsibility displacement continues to support not only the approximately US$4 billion in annual United States taxpayer borrowed funds delivered to the government of the State of Israel, but wants another US$14.9 billion in taxpayer borrowed funds in military equipment so Israel Defense Forces (IDF) can more effectively dispatch, on a permanent basis, more residents of Gaza.

President Biden, wearing his Ray-Ban Aviator sunglasses, turned-up blazer collars, baseball cap, and embroidered jackets (with the presidential seal) seems to have no bottom in terms of when the government of the United States will say to the government of the State of Israel that Washington will no longer tolerate impediments to the ground-based delivery of humanitarian assistance to the 2.3 million residents of Gaza.  Thus far, President Biden will not do this.  Why?  He is self-trapped in a 20th Century perspective rather than embracing the 21st Century reality.  

500,000 of the approximately 2.3 million residents of Gaza are, according to the New York, New York-based United Nations (UN), “one step away from famine” which means one in five men, women, and children do not have what they need to eat.  What they want to eat is a long-gone distant thought for each of them.

From Kaiser Permanente: “When you start to feel like you want something to eat, rate your hunger on a scale of 1 to 10, with 1 being extremely hungry and 10 being so full you feel sick. A rating of 5 or 6 means you're comfortable- neither too hungry nor too full.”

1- Extremely hungry, weak, dizzy
2- Very hungry, cranky, low energy, lots of stomach growling
3- Pretty hungry, stomach is growling a little
4- Starting to feel a little hungry
5- Satisfied, neither hungry nor full
6- A little full, pleasantly full
7- A little uncomfortable
8- Feeling stuffed
9- Very uncomfortable, stomach hurts
10- So full you feel sick
