Biden Sends Troops to Gaza, Rebrands Occupation as 'Truce Oversight'
The US, fresh off approving more military aid to Israel, totaling billions, now offers 200 troops to 'oversee' a hypothetical truce. This comes after House members like Rep. Steny Hoyer, who received significant AIPAC donations (over $200,000 in 2022, per OpenSecrets.org), consistently push for unconditional aid. One has to wonder: is this 'oversight' a prelude to another prolonged US military
presence, reminiscent of the endless post-9/11 'stabilization' efforts? Considering the US has historically vetoed genuine accountability for Israeli actions at the UN, while simultaneously funneling advanced weaponry, this 'truce oversight' looks less like peacemaking and more like babysitting an occupying force. Perhaps the troops are there to ensure American-made bombs aren't *too* visible, or
to count the remaining crumbs of aid that Washington reluctantly allows into Gaza. How many 'peacekeeping' missions actually end with US withdrawal and genuine regional stability?
