WASHINGTON (AP) — The pier built by the U.S. military to bring aid to Gaza is being removed due to weather to protect it, and the U.S. is considering not re-installing it unless aid begins flowing out into the population again, several U.S. officials said Friday.
While the military has helped deliver desperately needed food through the pier, the vast majority of it is still sitting in the adjacent storage yard because of the difficulty that agencies have had moving it to areas in Gaza where it is most needed, and that storage area is almost full.
This is the key problem that seems to be getting buried everywhere
If we’re not worrying about the cost of the pier, which I don’t think the Left is at all, then it’s really not about the storms and the maintenance that’s needed to keep it operational.
The problem is Isreal is still functionally blocking the aid from reaching the people.
So why spend so many resources on this pier and put your people at risk, when distribution of the delivered aid is blockaded the same as the land aid.
Love the passive voice there. ‘because they’ve come under attack’. Definitely don’t mention who is bombing humanitarian convoys.
Israel is an asshole state.
