Report: Most Aid Delivered to Gaza Via U.S. Pier Is Being Stolen
Breitbart ^ | 05/22/2024 | JOEL B. POLLAK

Posted on 05/22/2024 5:55:29 AM PDT by ChicagoConservative27

Most of the aid being delivered to Gaza via the new “floating pier” constructed by the U.S. military is being stolen, according to reports.

The pier, announced by President Joe Biden in his State of the Union address, was completed last week, and the Pentagon said Tuesday that 569 metric tons of aid had been brought ashore thus far.

However, the Pentagon is unable to say how much, if any, of that aid has actually reached the organizations that are supposed to distribute it, as reports have emerged of Palestinians simply seizing aid from the back of delivery trucks.

Sheesh, a brand new project just starting out, only a few weeks old, and they are already clueless.

Different Day, New Graft. How many weapons are stashed in among those bags of rice and boxes of medicine?

Oh, come on now. How tough can it be to find that out? We must be in contact with those organizations. Why not just ask them.

Oh, wait. Maybe we did ask, and were told all of the aid is being stolen. Can’t be announcing that! Better to say we just don’t know.

This whole country has turned into one big Three Stooges routine, except that the Stooges never had bad intentions.

Like dfwgator says .... the goal of this pier is NOT for bringing in aid, but, for sending out Gazans.

Reminds me of Live Aid-Ethiopia. A real feel-good endeavor. One of the hot bands, Huey Lewis didn’t take part-didn’t think it would help. So what was he doing on the We Are The World smalchy tune?

All that money raised was stolen.

Blowing up the pier would be a teachable moment. Reagan learned it in 1983 Beruit and pulled out.

Most of the crates are labeled “food” but probably probably contain weapons for Hamas. They’re being looted with permission of the Biden admin.

It’s such a shame that deliveries couldn’t have some kind of locating device embedded within them.

Biden is giving as much political aid he can to Hamas and not suffer political blow back. Biden is giving as little political aid and military aid to Israel as he can and not suffer political blow back. Biden is a Hamas supporter or rather his aids are as they, his wife and Obama are running the country.

“Hamas steals aid and sells it.”

I suspect ordinary Gazans are stealing Biden’s aid first.

That situation won’t last for long.
