Biden said Wednesday the United States is providing $100 million in humanitarian assistance for Palestinians in Gaza and the West Bank. “This funding will help support over a million displaced and conflict-affected people with clean water, food, hygiene support, medical care, and other essential needs,” a White House statement said.

even IF it isn't snatched up by Hamas and Islamic Jihad (which it will be) this is bad strategy.

The people of Gaza have to reject/disavow, at a minimum, Hamas as a condition of victory. If slaughtering Jewish civilians nets them $100 mmUSD then that is going to be seen as Hamas "earning" that money for them. That's the best case scenario.

If Hamas steals it, which they will, and kills more Jews - not to mention Americans and American allies - with that money we are literally funding terrorism (not that they haven't been already via Iran).

And let's not forget, these shite stains of human beings are holding American hostages. Those hostages are hidden in the postage stamp size are of Gaza. Is there a plethora of Gazan citizens coming forward with sightings or at lease reports of Hamas comings and goings? Supply deliveries far exceeding what's needed for the average household? Too many vehicles as compared to what's thought to be in that particular structure? No? Then don't reward those fricks.
