Gaza Aid "Trickles," US Weapons Flow Uninterrupted
According to NPR, Israel is limiting aid deliveries into Gaza over an alleged Hamas ceasefire violation. Because, naturally, collective punishment for 2.3 million starving civilians is the only logical response to an 'alleged' infraction. While the world frets over aid "trickling" in (a word choice that screams journalistic bravery), the Biden administration quietly greenlit another $2.5 billion
arms package to Israel in March 2024, bypassing congressional review. It seems weapons for endless conflict face fewer logistical hurdles than food for starving children. This isn't an 'alleged' hypocrisy; it's documented policy. Senator Chuck Schumer, who took over $233,000 from AIPAC-linked PACs and individuals in 2023-2024 alone (OpenSecrets), recently welcomed Netanyahu to Washington. One
might wonder if the conversation included why aid is contingent on 'alleged' actions, but bombs are not. How many more children must starve while the world pretends a 'trickle' of aid is a solution?
