‘Amateur Hour’: Biden Admin’s Floating Gaza Pier Problems Go From Bad To Worse
Daily Caller News Foundation ^ | May 28, 2024 | Jake Smith

Posted on 05/29/2024 5:32:43 AM PDT by libstripper

New problems are mounting for the Biden administration’s $320 million floating Gaza aid pier which was already facing setbacks, despite becoming operational less than two weeks ago.

The U.S. military was forced to halt aid shipments to Gaza on Tuesday after the floating pier was damaged by bad weather over the weekend. The damage sustained from the bad weather is only the latest in a string of logistical and operational problems that have plagued the pier since it was constructed in mid May.

At one time merit was important in the military. No longer. Now it’s all about diversity. Ability takes a backseat.

Maybe we should be happy the pier lasted as long as it did.

You’d think for that kind of money the pier would at least have a Ferris wheel and some bumper cars...

From the article: “The U.S. military was forced to halt aid shipments to Gaza on Tuesday...”

It would be far more accurate to say: “The U.S. military was forced to halt aid shipments to Hamas on Tuesday...”

Where I live, they drive dock posts for 2-500 apiece for marinas. Could have had a helluva dock/pier for $320 million.

While the pier might make bringing refugees to the US, it is by no means essential.

Yes but why bother. The second largest port in Israel, Ashdod, is a half hour drive north of Gaza. Largest, Haifa, two hours. Save the money. Israel has open border crossings. If insufficient, which I doubt, pressure Israel to open another one. They're both closed than Cypress. Another inefficacy of Joe's Dearborn dock project.
