Israel will use this as an excuse to reduce the number of trucks coming in to zero.
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
Lets repeat this a few hundred more times. A clock and a gold fish are going to have a better trading records than you can ever hope for.
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! They can land troops there and just say,
Thank you!. And there is not much the US could do.So cooperation with Israel is key to making this precedent work. Might be quite the show watching the US try to do humble
You’re drunk right? You do realize all of Israel’s Conor McGregor-esque arm swinging is due to US support, right?

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.
The Associated Press, however, quoted an unnamed UN official as saying distribution of the shipment had not begun as of Friday afternoon.
The Guardian changes titles more frequently than you change underwear.
No problem. Dump them into Libyan slave markets.
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.
And come back history wise full circle
