US Military to Dismantle Doomed Pier in Gaza, Declares “Mission Complete”

Team America wins again.

There’s no evidence any aid was ever delivered to the pier, but as we know, in a democracy, it’s the thought that counts.

If results actually mattered, we wouldn’t have zombie hordes of junkies on the streets in every major metro, and we wouldn’t allow Venezuelan gangs to run New York City.

But it’s the thought that counts. We love junkies and Venezuelan gang members.

We love the Palestinians.

But we’re just gonna have to let them starve, because on October 7th, Angel Face was gang raped and decapitated with a shovel and then her head rolled past a Holocaust survivor who was hiding in a bush.

The Guardian:

The US military-built pier for carrying humanitarian aid to Gaza will be dismantled and brought home, ending a mission that has been fraught with repeated weather and security problems that limited how much food and other supplies could get to starving Palestinians.

Vice Adm Brad Cooper, deputy commander at US Central Command, told reporters in a Pentagon briefing on Wednesday that the pier had achieved its intended effect in what he called an “unprecedented operation”.

The intended effect was to prove it’s the thought that counts.

I guess.

As the US military steps away from the sea route for humanitarian aid, questions swirl about Israel’s new plan to use the port at Ashdod as a substitute. There are few details on how it will work and lingering concerns about whether aid groups will have enough viable land crossings to get assistance into the territory besieged by war between Israel and Hamas.

Cooper said the Ashdod corridor would be more sustainable and it has already been used to get more than a million pounds of aid into Gaza.

Sounds legit.

“Having now delivered the largest volume of humanitarian assistance ever into the Middle East, we’re now mission complete and transitioning to a new phase,” said Cooper. “In the coming weeks, we expect that millions of pounds of aid will enter into Gaza via this new pathway.”

Critics call the pier a $230m boondoggle that failed to bring in the level of aid needed to stem a looming famine. The US military, however, has maintained that it served as the best hope as aid only trickled in during a critical time of near-famine in Gaza and that it got close to 20m lb (9m kg) of desperately needed supplies to Palestinians.

You gotta wonder who writes these talking points.

There could not have been a bigger failure than this pier, which was destroyed by Jews.

But someone wrote down “this is what was supposed to happen,” then someone went out and said it.

It’s actually true, of course. That’s the funny part. It was meant to look like the US was doing something to help the Palestinians they are massacring.
