US Air drop to Gaza a cynical PR stunt

by DLi
In the face of incontrovertible graphic evidence of Israel "Defense" Force using lethal force to cause over 100 Palestinian deaths, amidst a starving crowd that was trying desperately to get to aid supply trucks, the Biden administration was forced to belatedly organize a single plane flight to drop off 60 tons of aid supplies on a south Gaza beach.
Let's face it, this "humanitarian" flight is nothing but a last-minute cynical PR stunt, to give the impression that Washington actually cares about the dire starvation-level situation in south Gaza. Even a fourth-grade student can tell you that 60 tons of aid --even if all of that consist of food supplies--would only amount to 120,000 pounds! For a starving 1.2 million Palestinians being holed up in south Gaza by 5 months of barbaric bombing sorties(all with USA-supplied bombs no less!), that would mean a paltry 1.6 oz.(Yes, you read it right, a mere 1.6 oz, less than a tube of sample toothpaste at your neighborhood CVS store, per starving Gazan.) If this isn't the most absurd Orwellian joke perpetrated on a victimized population, I don't even know of an apropos metaphor to describe this cynical dystopian photo-op.

Bottom line, all "Interventionist Joe"
--if he has truly any humanitarian conscience left--needs to do is just ring up "Bibi," and tell him in no uncertain terms that he must immediately agree to a Cease Fire, because the US will stop all shipment of "bunker buster" bombs and other WMDs. Voila, the massive violence will end(including no more missiles fired by Hezbollah from Lebanon into northern Israel, and even all the shipping attacks by AnsarAllah (Houthis) forces in Yemen); "It's really that elementary, my dear Watson," as the master sleuth Sherlock revealed to his assistant.
