The big ship stays in the water, and is used to supply smaller water craft that can ferry them directly to the coast; either by using smaller existing docks, or by simplying beaching on the cost. Unless we are saying that the US military lacks the ability to do a water based ground attack unless the enemy kindly leaves a port for them to use.
Aircraft carriers actually have a lot of storage space since they have to be able to cruise around for a long time without resupplying. They have many “smaller” boats surrounding them which can easily transport food if they used their life boats.
If there’'s a will there’s a way. People are actively dying of starvation.
Waiting multiple weeks to build a pier for “clean delivery” is what I would use the adjective in your comment for.
The real solution if for Israel to allow trucks across the land border and not machine gun residents when they try to collect the aide.
Yes but Biden is actively trying to pretend that isn’t possible and make up excuses why he needs TWO MONTHS to build a pier to drop off food. In the hopes his voting base is stupid enough to believe he isn’t actively trying to ignore the issue.
The US and UK (either or) could’ve stopped the genocide immediately – establishing a no-fly zone over Gaza and forcing israel to respect the Rafah border crossing instead of bombing it every time the trucks moved through a little too freely.
They have no intention of stopping this unless Hamas suddenly becomes much more profitable to western interests than Israel.
Also
Someone tell Biden that if he actually wants to do something he has a few aircraft carriers and frigates nearby perfectly capable of delivering food
Or maybe Biden doesn’t want to do anything. He just wants to make it look like he does something. Wonder which it could be.

What? The issue is the truck blockade imposed by israel. That’s what’s being ignored.
