A string of security, logistical and weather problems has battered the plan to deliver desperately needed humanitarian aid to Gaza through a U.S. military-built pier.
Like, just not waiting 7 months into this genocide would have made things more orderly.

Jihad Abu Watfa was standing in the rubble along a dark stretch of coastal road southwest of Gaza City when he saw Israeli military tanks approaching. He began recording on his phone just as a heavy barrage of gunfire flashed before his eyes.
“We are now under siege, a tank is beside us and it’s shelling,” Abu Watfa could be heard saying in the video, which he shared with CNN.
The 27-year-old was surrounded by hundreds of other Palestinians who had gathered for an aid delivery on February 29 when Israeli soldiers accompanying the humanitarian convoy opened fire. More than 100 people were killed and 700 injured, according to Gaza’s health ministry.
The IDF opening fire is what caused the death…
Any issues before the first shot was because the people who were committing the genocide against those people who were waiting for aid were pointing fucking tanks at them…
How do you not understand how people would be on fucking edge?
Have you been on US military foreign aid missions before?
It’s not a new thing, we do it all the fucking time.
Why do you think Palestinians are going to behave like a fucking hoard of zombies?
That’s carries some pretty racist connotations…
They can handle queuing up for aid especially if it’s being handed out systematically and not dropped from thousands of feet to starving masses.

So, are you going to let them fire into the crowd or not?

Do you think these people are less on edge today?
Are they still in danger of being murdered by genocidal far right extremists?
Yes.
Would they be less afraid if Biden did the right thing and provided aid and the assurance of safety at least while it was distributed?
Also yes.
This ain’t complicated, but you keep “just asking questions”…
I’m starting to think that none of this has any chance of being productive.
