Issues with Gaza Aid Pier

Questions arise regarding the functionality and cost of the U.S.-built pier off the coast of Gaza, intended for humanitarian aid delivery. Despite the high cost and elaborate planning involved in its construction, the pier faced immediate challenges as rough waters caused it to break apart soon after deployment. The viability of continuing with the project is now in doubt due to safety concerns for both personnel and potential political ramifications should the pier fail again. The President aims to salvage the mission, emphasizing its importance despite the practical difficulties and risks involved.
