Israel Army Violates 'Yellow Line,' Mainstream Media Finds New 'Surprise'
The Israeli army is reportedly conducting incursions past the 'Yellow Line' that splits Gaza, directly violating the ceasefire. This isn't a shocking development for those who recall previous 'ceasefires' that served as mere pauses for resupply and repositioning. Netanyahu's government has a well-documented history of redrawing lines, literally and figuratively, from the 2014 Gaza war to ongoing
settlement expansions — each violation met with muted international condemnation and renewed US funding. While Western media outlets furrow their brows at this 'new' territorial breach, one might wonder if they've checked the historical receipts. The pattern is clear: define a boundary, ignore the boundary, expand. Senator Lindsey Graham, who received $10,000 from AIPAC in 2023 for example,
consistently champions 'Israel's right to defend itself' while voting to send billions in aid, effectively underwriting these expansions. How many 'lines in the sand' do we need to see erased before we question the commitment to any peace? Whose memory is being erased here?
