A floating pier and causeway that will be used to deliver critical humanitarian aid by sea to Gaza is expected to take at least one month or possibly as long as two for the US military to build and become fully operational, Pentagon Press Secretary Major General Patrick Ryder said on Friday.

    This was a bad idea along with the airdrops. All because Biden is unwilling to pressure Netanyahu publicly or set any red lines. So now he’s trying to scramble to give aid to one and bombs to another rather than do the simpler move of reigning one side in and allowing them to send in aid. International law says that Israel is required to allow this aid in or help, and they are doing neither.

      Yeah this seems crazy. We should just require Israel to set forth and protect a humanitarian corridor. We have a ton of leverage against Israel.
