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

Varyk ,

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?

Gigate ,

Democrats better hope that Trump doesn't get elected while all of this is still going on. The about-face will be VERY awkward.

CaractacusPotts OP ,

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"

CaractacusPotts OP ,

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
