    They should start shipping large jars of peanut butter and loaves of bread to hospitals, instead of dropping food on the coast. The hospitals could give the food directly to starving children and their families. Peanut butter lasts forever, and will put weight on a person.

      Dude. “Ship it to the hospital” like it’s the US Post Office or something. Sure. Do you think that shipment will ever get across the Gaza border? Hell no. It will sit at the border like all the rest of the aid.

      I hate to be “that guy”, but have you not been keeping up with what they’ve been doing to Gazan hospitals? I’m sure they’d be happy to try chucking some of those jars with their artillery.

        Where can a person mail food, and have it reach these children? I don’t trust many charities to handle a monetary donation. Could someone ship food via Amazon to a place where they could receive it? People are fighting each other on the beaches for the air dropped food in Gaza.
