Eye on Gaza: Biden’s Still-Mysterious Pier Plan
Though President Biden vowed weeks ago to build a pier on the Gazan coast, fumes the Washington Examiner’s Conn Carroll, he “didn’t have any answers” on key issues. “Just this week, Israeli Defense Minister Yoav Gallant reached an agreement with Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin” that the IDF will “provide a ‘security bubble’ ” for US personnel. Such “details should have been nailed down before Biden announced the project.” Big questions remain: “Who is going to be loading the food off the pier, driving it into Gaza, and then distributing it?” “If Biden had a stronger track record,” such “unanswered questions might not be so alarming,” but “this is the same administration that ignored multiple warnings” from Pentagon officials that that abandoning Afghanistan would put “American lives at risk.”
