Will the US port in Gaza deliver ‘aid’ into the hands of Hamas?

“Jerusalem Minute” with Middle East correspondent Josh Hasten, Ep. 10

U.S. President Joe Biden announced that the U.S. Navy is opening a port to deliver humanitarian aid to Palestinians in the Gaza Strip. Can this be successful or even properly inspected? Does it shift scrutiny away from Israel? Is it part of a larger effort by the Biden administration to isolate and undermine Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and the Israeli government?

JNS CEO and Jerusalem bureau chief Alex Traiman and Middle East correspondent Josh Hasten break this down along with Biden’s “come to Jesus” comment directed at Netanyahu; violence during the Muslim holiday of Ramadan; the haredi draft crisis and much more!
