The US will begin air dropping food aid to the people of Gaza, President Joe Biden announced on Friday, as the humanitarian crisis deepens and Israel continues to resist opening additional land crossings to allow more assistance into the war-torn strip.
Speaking in the Oval Office, Biden said the US would be “pulling out every stop” to get additional aid into Gaza, which has been under heavy bombardment by Israel since the October 7 Hamas terror attacks.
“Aid flowing to Gaza is nowhere nearly enough,” the US President said, noting “hundreds of trucks” should be entering the enclave.
Biden said the US is “going to insist that Israel facilitate more trucks and more routes to get more and more people the help they need, no excuses”.
He also noted the efforts to broker a deal to free the hostages and secure an “immediate ceasefire” that would allow additional aid in.

Yeah. It’s honestly sad. It can be difficult to break through the propaganda if you don’t have a starting point, but to willfully ignore all these sources in favor of dehumanization…
I’m glad more people are failing to fall for it, the ethnic cleansing of Palestine can’t be ignored any longer

Don’t you see how killing 30,000 is not acceptable just because more died in a bigger genocide? Don’t you see how hypocritical it is to believe in “Never again” but fall short of applying it?
