Why can't the US (or some other countries) drop food, water, and medical supplies to the people of Gaza? Our country did this for West Berlin decades ago and sustained the population.

They have done that, it didn’t go very well. Some drops blew off course & landed in the sea, some fell on people & killed them. Air drops can’t possibly supply enough; b4 the war 500 truckloads per day were getting in, 500. You can’t drop 1000 pallets of supplies onto a population crammed into a small area, & even 1000 pallets doesn’t equal 500 truck loads.
They could if they organized to do it. Of course, this happened when the war was over, not during the war, so that planes dropping supplies were not getting shot out of the sky. It would have to be drones. They might scare the people though, since they are in the midst of a full on war.

Interesting proposal.
