None of the aid that has been unloaded from the temporary pier the US constructed off the coast of Gaza  has been delivered to the broader Palestinian population, as the US works with the UN and Israel to identify safe delivery routes inside the enclave, the Pentagon said on Tuesday.

Several desperate Gazans intercepted trucks delivering aid from the pier over the weekend, leading the UN to suspend the delivery operations until the logistical challenges are resolved.

The US is working with Israel and the United Nations to establish “alternative routes” for the safe delivery of the 569 tons of aid transported to Gaza since last week, Pentagon spokesperson Maj. Gen. Pat Ryder said on Tuesday.

    Of course it wasn’t. It would be against israel’s plan to starve every non-jew to death.

      Every Palestinian.

      There are plenty of non-Jews in Israel. Some are even in Netanyahu’s party. Netanyahu is fine with them if they vote for him or another party in the coalition, which they are known to do.

      Netanyahu specifically wants to take Palestinian land at the expense of Palestinians. It’s not because they’re Muslims, it’s because they have the land he wants and he wants it at all cost.

      Netanyahu wants you to think this is about Jews. It isn’t about Jews. Don’t fall for that.

            In the past they’ve forced black Ethiopian Jews to take birth control without their knowledge or consent. It’s obvious that Israel has preferences as to which Jews are the majority.
