U.S. military aircraft airdrop thousands of meals into Gaza in emergency humanitarian aid operation

"Three U.S. C-130 cargo planes dropped 66 total bundles, equating to about 38,000 pork-free meals, into the territory on Saturday morning. The bundles were split between three planes, the official said."

"The airdrop is expected to be the first of many announced by President Joe Biden on Friday. The aid will be coordinated with Jordan, which has also conducted airdrops to deliver food to Gaza."

Fund the weapons from one side and then buy media karma by dropping aid packages to the other side. It truly is election season.

It sucks that the other option would rather drop more bombs rather than food.

A radical other option is to stop dropping bombs

I think this was referring to the other option of the president specifically, not other options in general, which there are only two of.

All it takes to stop Trump is for a single person, Joe Biden, to stop helping Israel genocide Palestinians.

I mean, even if Joe Biden is helping Israel out of Principle (whatever genocide-loving "principle" that is) and would have to swallow that principle to "stop Trump", it says a lot that Joe Biden refuses to do so and has his team running around demanding that millions of Americans are the ones who swallow their Principles "to stop Trump".
