The Navy has been delivering supplies to beaches since WW2 just fine. You would think the Biden administration would have just used their existing equipment and techniques

WHat these idiots are attempt8ing with the pier was to establish something similar to the Vargo Cults of the PAcific which ocurred after WWII troops were withdrawn.
So BIden figured senilely , “Build It and They will Come” ( They...NGOs UN agencies etc)
BUt Hamas diod not want that pier, it was a beachead for invasion by sea in their eyes, and the Hamas idjits had noway opf controlling it , if the pier was built.So the Hamas geniuses destroyed it.
And guess what. “They” did not come, THe “ They “ people got blowed up good in Rafa, and this would have been far worse.
Israel would have blown it up otherwise.
Talk about Losing !
This happens when you put politicians in chairs where generals should be sitting.
Idiots.

I admit this sounds naive, but…
What if the IDF setting up a landing/drop zone and relief is airlifted into the zone? Then the IDF distributes it to whomever it recognizes as a distributor for the relief to the noncombatants. Hamas interferes in any way, the effort ends.

There just wasn't enough money in that for the right people. It looks like they wanted the U.S. Army to handle the contracts for a maritime operation and not the U.S. Navy. Follow the money and the answer will reveal itself.

Gee, Elissa, maybe pResident Biden should have asked a few experts before shooting off his mouth at the SOTU speech that “we” were going to build a new pier. They would have told him how ‘complicated’ it was and that it wasn’t a very good idea.
Probably got the Nike response - "Just do it!"
You can't fix stupid.

“lotkin responded, “I don’t think people understand just how complicated this is.”
Thank goodness we had smarter people responsible for setting up those docks at Normandy in WW2. Being focused on accomplishing the task as expeditiously as possible now falls prey to making sure the right “groups” are represented in the implementation. I’m sure there will be no one held accountable for this latest failure, as failure is never their fault.

If only there were like centuries or even millennia of seafaring experience to draw from. Yes, but those piers were all built by patriarchal white supremacists.
This was an opportunity to showcase for the world a more progressive pier.

Meanwhile, for $1.3 billion, China is building a deep water (60 foot depth) port in Peru, the deepest port on the west coast south of the U.S.
Amazing what a serious country can accomplish.
