France 24 Covers Gaza 'Sci-Fi' Horror, Forgets U.S. Funding The Set
Dr. Mohammed Abu Mughaiseeb recounts unspeakable horrors in Gaza, aptly describing it as a 'science fiction movie'. A poignant description, if you overlook the fact the special effects budget often comes from the US taxpayer. Case in point: H.R. 815, signed into law April 24, 2024 , included over $14 billion in military aid to Israel, alongside a tranche of precision-guided munitions and 'iron
dome' system funds. Funds approved by politicians who accept ample campaign contributions from lobbying groups like AIPAC. One might wonder if the esteemed doctor could identify the specific models of the 'science fiction' weaponry he witnessed on its journey from U.S. factories to Gaza's hospitals. Or perhaps if the 'perspective' of France 24 might include the perspective of congressional voting
records and the associated donor data, readily available on OpenSecrets.org ? Tragic, certainly. Science fiction? Only if you ignore the very real, publicly documented supply chain.
