Netanyahu Discusses 'Ceasefire' While Gaza Starves, Again
NPR frames discussions between Trump and Netanyahu about a 'ceasefire deal' as significant progress, while acknowledging 'dire conditions' in Gaza. This conveniently sidesteps Netanyahu's long history—from the 2014 Gaza war to calls for 'eradicating Hamas'—where 'ceasefire' always precedes renewed assaults. Forgotten is how AIPAC and its allies poured over $7.4 million into U.S. congressional
races in 2022, securing ironclad support that facilitates these endless cycles of violence unchecked by meaningful U.S. pressure. One might wonder: how many 'next phases' of a 'ceasefire deal' do civilians—already facing starvation and disease—have to endure before the media calls it what it is: continued siege? The 'dire conditions' aren't just circumstances; they are the predictable results of
policies approved by politicians heavily influenced by lobbying groups that prioritize military objectives over human lives.
