Rare look at U.S. military pier that has struggled to deliver aid to Gaza

For the first time, reporters were invited to the U.S. military's floating pier off the coast of Gaza. CBS News' Imtiaz Tyab was among those to get a rare glimpse at the operation, which has struggled to deliver aid to Palestinians.

..."the need is desperate," as energetic Gazans throw US food packages into the trash to show contempt. I'm old enough to remember Biafra and Ethiopia. Quite different.

[@peggycushen]

Was this actually Gazans or Hamas parading as Gazans throwing away food( or empty food boxes)? No family member would do this with starving children. My uncle was a POW in a German run prison. NOTHING they were given to eat was wasted, not even a crumb. He remained skinny the rest of his life no matter how much he ate after he was freed by American forces. I saw on video footage Hamas shooting Gazans dead when they attempted to get supplies from food drops. Hamas was taking and hoarding the food drop supplies for themselves.

[@PURENT]

That was Israelis smashing up the food and vandalizing it as it's stuck at the border.

[@kevinjenner9502]

Symbolism over function.

This guy is a liar. Shame on you CBS. He has no idea what is happening Gaza.

[@ak9989]

I know huh!!!

[@jonas000111]

Wow this propaganda is disgusting. The pier is a complete failure. Why can't they send help via the maybe boarders? They trickle trucks in from 500 a day to not even 500 since the first day it started

[@Jayne-bk1qp]

Manufacturing chaos!

[@terrimcmanus404]

Because it was only meant for the so called rescue mission of hostages I seen the American soldiers on the pier that day. Does anyone honestly believe IDF could have pull that rescue mission off? Of course not Without the help from US and UK this war would have been finished already!

Bidens doing and Bidens weakness on bibi

[@PURENT]

Cause Israel won't let it in. Now they control all the borders of Gaza, including the Egyptian border.

[@DAVIDKAMEN-xj7rg]

This floating dock idea was a really idiotic decision. The dock assures two things - the U.S. gives the appearance of helping the Palestinian civilians while at the same time assuring those same people receive the least amount of help possible. It's all political for show.

That pier is an oil barge made for extracting oil from the sea

[@LightHouse5G]

Why does the US involve themselves in this and not the homeless crisis at home?

[@jeffkardosjr.3825]

The US shouldn't be involved. Build a new fishing pier for Wildwood NJ instead.

[@Forestventures]

It's still difficult to believe that the Palestinians didn't know Hamas had tunnels there and were in Gaza, and none not even one Palestinian speaks against Hamas, that alone speaks volumes, that's B.S.

[@thehoodhipster6018]

i mean when you don’t have a military and they’re the only ones not bombing you,what else can you really do in that situation??

[@PURENT]

I mean half of the population are kids, 70% of the population never got to vote in any election in their lives because the armed Hamas gunmen backed by Likud control their country. That speaks the most volumes.

[@madworld6801]

It's to help Isreal not the Palestinians people I guarantee it because if they want to end the war, America can do it in a heartbeat

[@User-rka_zykx76]

We’re supposed to simultaneously defend South Korea, Taiwan, Philippines, Ukraine and we can’t even deliver supplies correctly to Gaza🤦‍♂️ man oh man.

[@Paiadakine]

We could have dropped supplies from airplanes but the Gaza people would stand under the packages for some reason.

[@DAVIDKAMEN-xj7rg]

Ignorance and desperation.

[@irenemonk7991]

They had no problems delivering weapons. No problem there! can anybody tell me how we can do the same to deliver food ASAP?
