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.

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'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.
-
The problem is that by the time they build it half of Gaza will be dead. This isn't like the Bengali famine or the Holodomor where food just went down, these people aren't getting food at all. I think it should be obvious that the progress from infants to adults dying will be a lot faster.

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).

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.

All while sending bombs and ammo weekly

If you think Trump gives a shit about Palestinians I've got a pair of gold spray painted shoes on backorder to sell you.

This is the best summary I could come up with:
The floating port Joe Biden plans to build in an effort to deliver much needed humanitarian aid to Gaza could take up to 60 days to complete, according to the Pentagon.
The Pentagon presented the timeline on Friday in the wake of Mr Biden's State of the Union speech.
The port — intentional or not — will likely serve as an olive branch from Mr Biden's administration to Democratic voters who feel his staunch support of Israel is implicit approval of the civilian displacement and deaths caused by the Israeli Defence Forces.
"Rather than look to the US military to build a work-around, the US should insist on immediate humanitarian access using the roads and entry points that already exist."
Mr Ryder said the system should allow for the delivery of approximately 2 million meals every day to the people of Gaza.
Democrats have largely praised the move, thought it's unclear how far the structure will go to win back the support of leftwing party members who were shocked by Mr Biden's refusal to outright condemn the widespread civilian casualties caused by the IDF.

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?
