Sal Mercogliano, host of the "What's Going On With Shipping?" YouTube channel, joins Ward to go in depth on the effort it's going to take to build the floating pier to deliver humanitarian aid to refugees in Gaza and what the unintended consequences of that delivery might be on the duration of the Israel-Hamas War.

Biden's 'Trojan Pier' For Gaza

Daniel Greenfield
March 18, 2024

• The temporary pier setup is about bypassing Israel to provide long term access to Gaza... [the pier] is not actually meant to be temporary, but a permanent port for the terrorists.

• The Pentagon spokesman emphasized, however, that American forces would not be on the ground, would not be in a position to secure the aid deliveries or stop Hamas from taking them.

• ome of those partner nations could include Hamas allies like Qatar or Turkey. Any armed foreign nation entering Gaza would amount to an invasion of Israeli territory with the ultimate aim of aiding the terrorists living on it.

The Trojan pier is not only about bypassing Israel, but also Egypt. The administration's vision is that the new arrangement will allow it to directly move materials into Gaza without having to get permission from either Israel or Egypt. And that's a major victory for the terrorists.

Biden's actions are a violation of Israel's sovereignty.

Terrorists Launch Attacks on Americans Building Biden’s Gaza Pier

 

Terrorists operating in the Gaza Strip launched a series of attacks on Americans building President Joe Biden's "humanitarian pier" this week.  

"Gazan terrorists fired mortar shells on Wednesday towards the construction work on the humanitarian pier being built off the coast of Gaza," i24 News reports. "i24NEWS has learned that several pieces of American engineering equipment were damaged in the attack. In addition, one person was slightly injured while running to a protected area."

 

Biden announced the construction of the pier, being done by the U.S. military, during his State of the Union address in March -- prompting serious concerns from lawmakers about U.S. troop safety and lack of sober threat assessment. As a number of Republican Senators wrote to Biden on March 28: 

We have strong reservations about your directing the United States military to establish a temporary pier on the Gaza Coast. While we acknowledge that this decision was taken with the consent of the Israeli government, we are concerned that the mission entails a significant risk to U.S. personnel. We are also concerned that this approach fails to address the main causes of the humanitarian crisis.
