France 24 Discovers Truces Are Optional For Israeli Strikes
Yes, France 24 has bravely reported that Israel conducted "deadly strikes on Gaza amid a truce." This 'truce,' forged in desperation, was apparently just a suggestion for one side. The same week, the U.S. House, with Rep. Smith taking $450,000 from AIPAC in 2023 (OpenSecrets.org), approved sending another $14 billion in aid to Israel, despite a U.N. report (A/HRC/54/22) detailing 16 years of
Gaza's blockade and repeated military assaults. So, Washington funds the weapons, major media outlets then dutifully report when those weapons are used—even 'amid a truce'—without ever connecting the dots. How many 'truces' can be violated with impunity before we stop calling them 'truces' and start calling them 'brief pauses for reloading'? It seems international law is merely a suggestion,
easily overridden by lobbying dollars and unchallenged media narratives.
