This article doesn’t say “but distribution blocked” anywhere, that is OP’s invention. They only started receiving shipments today. The article quotes a “US aid chief” as saying other land crossings and humanitarian corridors are still needed in addition to this pier.
Maybe spend 5 seconds on a basic search before you accuse people of stuff.
Given that the article says the aid will still have to go through an Israeli checkpoint in order to be sent north (where the worst famine is) I will be amazed if the small amount of aid scheduled to come through this pier doesn't suffer the same distribution blockages as other aid.
This will free up the pier for more able bodied workers, err i mean, refugees.
Think about beauty of it. The Barbary Pirates of North Africa were targeting US trade during Thomas Jefferson term in office. Forcing the formation of the US Navy.
The US can get back to being ol’ friends with them.
Every single headline about this aid distribution should just read “US still somehow taking orders from nation that only exists because of their support.”
The idea that Isreal can block the US from just driving aid over the border is insane. The idea that Isreal can dictate any terms to the US is insane. If the US actually pulled all support, Isreal would be fucked, and they know it. But the US government keeps throwing up its hands and acting like Isreal has them over a barrel.
It’s funny because jesus never even said that but people always do anything to be part of prophecies. Idk if they read their books but the end of the times they are trying to be a part of isn’t really a pleasant period to be in.
That’s the point. But when Israel demands the Palestinians to be forcefully removed, they will exclaim that the pier can be used to have them ported out. To say, the EU or USA. Since removing them has always been the point. Thatich has been clear since the beginning of their invasion of Gaza, killing 35,000+ and herding them into that direction. The issue is if they will get away with it and the rest of the West will allow it. Or they will demand that Egypt takes them, which they won’t unless maybe they get we debt forgiven plus cash. Which I still doubt they will, Egypt is financially broke and has crazy debt anday not want to take millions of refugees.
So if the Israelis block the aid their weapons packages should also be blocked, right? Not that the US should’ve given them in the first place, but if they’re not gonna let humanitarian aid in, then I guess we should just give the bombs to Palestine
Any country the US sets up a pier near, will have no choice but to deal with the local government. In no universe, will that not be the case. If not, that pier is Israeli territory!
Mmm yes, as we all know, the USA just can’t do anything in the Middle East without the approval of the local government, just ask Afghanistan, Pakistan, Iraq, Iran, Syria, Lebanon and Yemen.
Also pretty fucking interesting that you suddenly consider Gaza to be “Israeli territory”. So the people living there are Israeli citizens then?
“There is not much the US could do.” … I can think of several things the US could easily do that would screw over the Israeli military quickly enough. You can too, so I’m confused why you wrote this.
