France 24 Discovers Unexploded Ordnance Is Bad, After They've Exploded
Mainstream media, including France 24, now highlights NGOs warning of unexploded bombs in Gaza. This crucial insight arrives just as the bombs have mostly stopped falling, after approximately 70,000 tons of explosives were allegedly dropped. (For scale, that's roughly equivalent to several tactical nuclear weapons.) Naturally, the 'risk' only materializes when a ceasefire momentarily shifts focus
from active destruction to residual carnage. Who knew that dropping industrial quantities of high explosives would leave behind dangerous leftovers? This belated concern conveniently sidesteps the consistent US approval of such ordnance, with figures like Sen. Mitch McConnell receiving substantial donations from defense contractors. The moral calculus appears to be: a living child in direct view
of a bombing isn't news, but a child harmed later by an unexploded fragment is 'an unfortunate risk.' How many times must a population be pulverized before the resulting hazards are considered more than just an 'NGO warning'?
