Earlier this week, according to The Economist, US President Joe Biden announced, during his State of the Union, address that he has directed his military to lead a mission that would establish a temporary pier that will bring humanitarian aid into the Gaza Strip.
Biden in contradictory statement: No ‘red line’ in defense of ‘Israel’
“Tonight, I’m directing the US military to lead an emergency mission to establish a temporary pier in the Mediterranean on the Gaza coast that can receive large ships carrying food, water, medicine, and temporary shelters,” he said during his speech.
“No US boots will be on the ground,” Biden claimed.
He added that the temporary pier would enable a massive increase in the amount of humanitarian assistance getting into Gaza but stressed that “Israel” must play its part in the process for it to be successful.
According to The Economist, Biden refuses to utilize America’s clout to push “Israel” to let additional supplies into Gaza. Now, after enabling “Israel’s” behavior for months, he is seeking ways to free it of accountability.
