 Pentagon Deputy Press Secretary Sabrina Singh says the pier built by the U.S. military to bring aid to Gaza has been removed. Due to high sea states expected this weekend, Central Command has removed the temporary pier from its anchored position in Gaza and will tow it back to Ashdod, Israel. Aid groups had stopped delivering aid anyway because of security concerns because of attacks from Hamas. Former Israeli ambassador to the U.S., Dr. Michael Orens, says it's not hard to see why the leader of Hamas is rejecting a ceasefire. Mr. Sinwar, the head of Hamas, believes that time is on his side.
