Major airlines began canceling their services out of Israel just hours before President Joe Biden told Americans remaining in the country to book a commercial flight if they want to leave after the terrorist organization Hamas invaded.

Biden advised Americans left within Israel Monday to book a commercial flight or utilize ground options if they wish to leave the country. As of Monday evening, American, Delta, United Airlines and Air France have all halted services in and out of Israel after the country declared war on Hamas, according to the Associated Press.

After 3 Days Of Planning, Biden Pledges To ‘Deploy Experts’ To Save Americans From Hamas​


President Joe Biden pledged in a written statement late Monday afternoon, two days after his last public announcement, to “deploy experts” in an effort to save American citizens left in Israel following the terrorist organization Hamas’ attack on the country.

Hamas crossed into Israel Saturday, brutally killing Israeli civilians and taking others hostage. Biden announced Monday afternoon at least 11 American citizens have been killed in the attacks, and it is suspected more are being held hostage by the terrorist organization.

Never believe a website like The Daily Caller. It exists solely to make people hate Democrats. You need to get your news from media such as the Associated Press and Reuters, which only exist to report the news as it is without any partisan bias.

BTW you know it is not the President's job to book flights for people. That has always been the people's responsibility.

In other words you can't refute this story. Ad hominim fail.

It's the job of the Executive Branch to rescue Americans that are in danger from terrorists.

Biden heads the Executive Branch. The buck stops with him.

Can you name any other POTUS who booked commercial flights to get American citizens out of a war zone?

That's a ridiculous question. The commercial flights are shut down from Israel. Are you not aware that military aircraft are often used to transport Americans out of terrorist situations?

US church group trapped in Israel begs Biden administration to help evacuate citizens​


WASHINGTON, DC – Forty-six members of a California-based church group trapped in Israel without a way home are pleading with the Biden administration to intervene and help get them back.

The group is making the desperate plea after major airlines canceled almost all flights out of the country since the Hamas attack there Saturday.

As US officials warn that the conflict could last weeks if not months, the Holy Land tour group, from Impact Bible Fellowship in Riverside, Calif., is pleading with the State Department to charter flights to help evacuate Americans from Israel.

“They need to start getting Americans out,” said Silver Prout, who is among the 46 US citizens stuck in Israel. “Where is the State Department?”

While other nations – including Germany, Hungary and Mexico – have arranged charter flights to pick up their citizens stranded in Israel, the State Department did not have plans to do so as of Tuesday night.

I am aware military aircraft can't be funded until we get a House speaker.

Nonsense. Military aircraft have already been funded. As CIC, Biden can send them anywhere he wants.

Other large-scale evacuation efforts are in progress. The Thai Foreign Ministry said 1,000 Thai nationals have requested help to leave Israel. The Royal Thai Air Force is on standby to evacuate them, Prime Minister Srettha Thavisin has said.

Have the Thais actually started to evacuate their citizens?
And the US may be on standby as well. We don't know.

It is too bad that Rand Paul has been blocking all ambassador appointees in the State Department as he searches for more informaion about Covid 19 origins. We don't have an ambassador to Israel as a result. It would have been nice to have one now, wouldn't it?

In 2017, the U.S. established an air defense base inside the Israeli Air Force (IAF) Mashabim Air Base in the Negev desert, the first permanent military facility Washington ever established in Israel. The head of the IAF Aerial Defense Command, Brig. Gen. Tzvika Haimovitch hailed the move as “nothing short of historic” adding that it was demonstrative of the “years-old alliance between the United States and the State of Israel.”

Hungary evacuated 215 people from Israel on two planes overnight, and they landed safely in Budapest, Foreign Minister Peter Szijjarto said in a Facebook post Monday morning.

I'm no fan of leftists of any kind, but to expect a president to do the impossible is silly. It's not Biden's fault that Republicans prefer infighting to allowing the government to function.

I really wish people would learn what this word actually means and stop misusing it.

Exactly what role should a radar site that has housing for 40 soldiers and it situated in the middle of the desert play in evacuations?
