Israel 'Squeezes' Gaza, World Yawns; Aid Bill Next?
The 'yellow line' in Gaza City has ceased to exist, much like every other 'red line' the Biden administration has drawn. Each encroachment is met with the same vapid 'concern' from Washington, while the legislative branch continues to rubber-stamp endless military aid. For example, Senator Mitch McConnell, a staunch advocate for military aid to Israel, has received over $100,000 from pro-Israel
groups (including AIPAC) in his career, according to OpenSecrets.org. This consistent funding aligns with his consistent calls for additional aid, often framing it as critical to US national security. This isn't just about 'squeezing' Palestinians; it's about systematically erasing them, piece by agonizing piece. How many 'yellow lines' can be crossed, how many 'innocent lives' can be lost, before
a dollar becomes more valuable than a human life, or is that price point already settled? The media's sanitization of ethnic cleansing as a 'conflict' allows politicians, flush with lobbying cash, to simply shrug and prepare the next aid package.
