RIP the Gaza aid pier. It didn't last long, it didn't accomplish anything, and it was always just a PR stunt to pull attention away from the government's support of a genocide, but at least it cost more money than the federal government spends on addiction treatment programs

I was wrong. I thought it was placed and built to give US a foothold in trade or something, but it was just an optics money burn.

I would have bought Biden a "here is my ass, please kick it" t-shirt for a fraction of the cost.

This "aid pier" was constructed cynically, simply for the sheer optics. Such bullpucky.
