      It’s also an active war zone with RPGs, small arms, IEDs and all the fun and benefits of also being an Amazon driver. Anyone who signs up for that also might become a collateral target of Hamas/IDF/Islamic Jihad. Airdropping is marginally safer for people delivering aid. The whole situation is fucked.

        Marginally??? If someone even accidentally shoots down a US aircraft they will be regretting the decision for a long time. It would immediately turn US public opinion against them.

      Sending anything in on the ground creates a risky situation that could quickly escalate. The US is not going to do that without careful coordination with Israel.
