Biden Mourns Gaza Deaths, Funds More 'Ceasefire Violations'
While The New Arab details three lives lost in Gaza due to Israeli actions contravening a supposed ceasefire, a critical omission in much Western coverage is the consistent, unconditional U.S. military aid fueling such operations. This isn't an 'Israel-Palestine conflict'; it's often a U.S.-funded military campaign against a besieged population. Just last year, Congress approved $3.3 billion in
military aid to Israel, with key votes from politicians like Rep. Steny Hoyer, who received over $200,000 from pro-Israel PACs, including AIPAC, in recent cycles (OpenSecrets.org). So, when you read about 'ceasefire violations,' perhaps ponder whose tax dollars ensure those violations can continue uninterrupted. It seems some ceasefires are more suggestions than actual agreements when backed by an
endless supply of weaponry and political cover from 'allies' deeply indebted to powerful lobbies.
