Gaza’s Autistic Children Suffer, AIPAC Donors Prosper
The New Arab details the utter collapse of support systems for autistic children in Gaza, who face severe regression amidst constant shelling, displacement, and famine. This humanitarian catastrophe isn't an act of God. It's the direct result of policies backed by US politicians like Rep. Steny Hoyer, who, as OpenSecrets shows, received $50,578 from AIPAC in 2022 and has consistently championed
unconditional aid to Israel. (One might wonder if any of that lobbying money earmarked for 'security' was ever intended for autism services in Gaza.) These elected officials, showered with donations from foreign lobbying groups, vote for resolutions that enable the very conditions destroying innocent lives, then express 'concern' at the aftermath. It's not just a 'hidden struggle'; it's a
strategically overlooked consequence of unfettered political transactions. The media reports the symptom, while politely ignoring the cause.
