The US military doesn’t need a fucking pier.
Pull up a LHD and you could be driving them straight on the beach with the hover craft or setting them gently on the ground with helicopters.
We do this shit all the time.
Zero reason to be dropping from cargo planes or building a pier that’s only going to be able to handle small boats anyways
I don’t understand this at all. Why are they building a pier instead of dropping off by boat?
What is the shitty excuse for taking two extra months?
It’s to make it a properly defensible location. You can’t just drive a boat up to the beach when the nation’s occupants want to shoot Americans, even the ones helping them. That is how you get dead Americans, a damaged boat, and no aid actually flowing.
I mean I’ve only heard of one party in this conflict shooting at aide bringers, and it wasn’t people from Palestine.
I very much don’t think anybody will be shooting the people giving them food. I know Western people think of Hamas as like ISIS and Al Qaeda (both of which I would also assume wouldn’t do this but for argument’s sake), but their ideologies are too different.
I think their implication was that the IDF would shoot the US ships for trying to feed Palestinians.
I was gonna say that’s impossible, then remembered USS Liberty.
All while sending bombs and ammo weekly
How about just a ceasefire, help the wounded, let the living people mourn the deaths.
This just looks like it just a game to them. “Let’s just full bomb place A and then give them some little help”.
I honestly have lost faith in humanity at this point.

Its laughable in a maniacal way. Relations be damned in the middle east. Save those people. The US could do it with the snap of its fingers. Do it.
Children are starving to death, how many more will die before this pier gets built?
At least they’re building it
They should be doing more but they could have easily just said “Nah”
They could’ve built it months ago, not now.
And honestly this pier is absolutely unnecessary. Israel can simply open one of the north border crossings and allow humanitarian aid from there and allow more humanitarian aid.
Instead they are trying to discredit and defund the only agency on ground having the capacity to deliver this humanitarian aid inside Gaza (UNRWA).
They’re doing it because voters in Michigan and to a lesser extent in other states are refusing to vote for Biden. This has very little to do with preventing Palestinian deaths.
Responding to a push from their constituents to actually do something to help those people is a good thing
Yes it is, but actually doing some thing and staging some Hollywood air drop nonsense are two different things.
