The Biden administration’s policy of placating terrorists is dangerous, especially when it comes to President Joe Biden’s treatment of Hamas.

Biden promised that he would have soldiers build Gaza a pier to provide aid, which we all know will almost certainly be confiscated by Hamas terrorists. Biden is doing this even as Hamas holds Americans hostage, including Hersh Goldberg-Polin, who was maimed by the terrorist group and has been imprisoned for 203 days and counting.

Aside from Biden doing this as part of his administration’s strategy of going soft on terrorists while he also chases the votes of pro-terrorist activists in Michigan and on college campuses being disgraceful, it is also dangerous. Before construction on the pier even started, Palestinian terrorists launched mortar fire at the “marshaling area” for the pier. While the Biden administration has downplayed this, there are other potential threats to American soldiers involved in the project, including (according to security analysts interviewed by the Washington Post) “Rocket fire, attack drones and divers or speedboats hauling explosives.”

So, what happens if Biden, in his quest to win favorable publicity from progressive activists and from countries that indulge the antisemitic United Nations, ends up getting American soldiers killed while delivering aid? Aid that won’t reach civilians until it goes through terrorists, all while leaving American hostages to rot in the hands of those terrorists? And, even if all goes swimmingly, the likely result is that terrorists get their first pick of the aid supplies while American hostages continue to rot. Is this really what we think the president should be doing here?

Biden’s decision-making throughout this entire conflict has ranged from foolish to pathetic, culminating in this decision to put soldiers in harm’s way while abandoning American hostages to the whims of the Taliban. This is not what leadership on the world stage should look like. In fact, you could hardly call it leadership at all.
