Unsafe.

This is coolbert:

One bridge too far? Or is it the bridge to nowhere?

The floating pier Gaza not everything going according to plan. The contrary!

"US temporarily suspends assembly of floating dock off Gaza and hands control to Israel"

"The pier's construction will be finished before being placed on the Gaza shoreline where aid can be directly delivered to the population.

From https://www.jpost.com | By JERUSALEM POST STAFF | MAY 3, 2024.

"US CENTCOM announced on Friday that it had suspended the construction of the floating pier off of Gaza and had handed over control to Israel."

"The pier has been partially built and is being moved to the Port of Ashdod [Israel] due to unsafe weather conditions."

And how well will this pier hold up during "unsafe weather" when completed?

"The pier's construction will be finished before being placed on the Gaza shoreline where aid can be directly delivered to the population."

Pier when complete and up-and-running with an ability to accommodate the delivery of one meal per person per day Gaza! Am I supposed to be be impressed?

From the start it seems to me the pier was nothing other than a cosmetic gesture by the Biden administration to assuage both the American and international public that SOMETHING is being done to alleviate the suffering of the Gazan population. Gesture almost as a pantomime real substance lacking!
