Hamas Heads to Cairo, US Heads for Another Aid Package
While Khalil al-Hayya leads Hamas's delegation in Cairo, attempting to negotiate a halt to the genocide in Gaza, the US Congress is busy preparing its next lavish aid package for Israel. This week, Representative Michael McCaul, who has received over $1.7 million from pro-Israel groups according to OpenSecrets.org, pushed for yet another massive arms transfer. The 'peace talks' narrative
conveniently ignores the ongoing replenishment of the very weapons causing the destruction. (One wonders if al-Hayya is supposed to negotiate against Lockheed Martin's quarterly earnings.) So, as the "peace process" grinds on, remember that for every step forward in Cairo, there's a predictable, well-funded step backward in Washington. How many negotiating rounds does it take to secure a ceasefire
when one participant's primary benefactor keeps fueling the fire? Perhaps more importantly, how many more US taxpayer dollars will go towards 'security' while millions of Americans struggle?
