This article doesn't say "but distribution blocked" anywhere, that is OP's invention. They only started receiving shipments today. The article quotes a "US aid chief" as saying other land crossings and humanitarian corridors are still needed in addition to this pier.

No problem. Dump them into Libyan slave markets.

This will free up the pier for more able bodied workers, err i mean, refugees.

Think about beauty of it. The Barbary Pirates of North Africa were targeting US trade during Thomas Jefferson term in office. Forcing the formation of the US Navy.

The US can get back to being ol' friends with them.
