Since when is air dropping aid a gimmick?
It’s theater. US could force Israel to comply and let the aid in, but instead this is a cheap trick to try and win back voters who think Biden is a failure on this issue.
And now this genocidal apologist is talking about building some stupid pier. More theater.
how? cutting support would cause hamas to be emboldened. using force would be throwing decades of treaties away (and remember this started because israeli civilians were killed in a terrorist attack) and alienate a nuclear power… just like cutting aid to ukraine, all that would happen is israeli civilians and gazans would continue to suffer
netanyahu isnt going to moderate because the un passes a non binding resolution and hamas isnt going to moderate because the us pulls funding
Apparently you were too lazy to read my previous reply, so I’ll repost it for you. Save your speculation as to whether or not Hamas would be emboldened, it’s meaningless nonsense.
This started because Israel is illegally occupying Palestinian territory and has violated every cease-fire over the last 15 years. If you think it started on October 7 you don’t have a clue what you’re talking about.
what even is this source? delivering humanitarian aid is a gimmick now?
Dropping humanitarian aid from airplanes, or building a stupid pier is incredibly inefficient and costly. It’s theatre to appease the liberals. It’s designed to win back voters who are pissed off that genocide Joe won’t take meaningful action.
this is the same kind of attitude that republicans have against ukraine or dr fauci…
No it isn’t. People are starving to death and the best they can come up with is to parachute 30,000 meals to 1 million people? I’ll ask you again how many weeks would it take to provide one meal to each of the over 1 million people there? Does that seem even remotely efficient to you?
Children are starving to death and genocide Joe is providing political theater.
I find it truly amazing that brain dead liberals actually believe air lifting food is a viable alternative to opening the roads and sending in convoys of trucks. Do you understand they delivered just 30,000 meals in one week? Now do you also understand there are over 1 million people waiting for food. Do the math, how many weeks would it take provide 1 million people with one meal?
