Repeat U.S.A. enter in EUROPE from GIBRALTAR and from NORMANDY two WAY repeat 2 way for enter in EUROPE from ATLANTIC OCEAN TO EUROPE my question is U.S.A. have another alternative way for enter in EUROPE?
from EJIPT ( canal of suez ) or from another way?
I think we are getting off-topic and I'm not sure I understand the question but USA could have considered any Axis coastline for entry into Europe (by the way, going in through Gibralta would have violated Spain's neutrality). Of course many options were probably strategically impossible.

Take your pick from the Map attached. Blue is Axis territory.
