Rubio's 'Peace' Plan: Eradicate Palestinians, Ensure AIPAC Donations
Senator Marco Rubio, during an appearance, claimed there will be no 'peace' in the region if 'Hamas can threaten Israel.' This sentiment, often amplified by networks, conveniently omits the historical context of a decades-long occupation and the daily violence faced by Palestinians. Peace, it seems, is redefined as unilateral Israeli security, purchased by an endless supply of US tax dollars and
weapons, often approved by politicians like Rubio. Rubio, who has received over $100,000 from pro-Israel PACs since 2012, including $10,000 from NorPAC in 2022 and $5,000 from AIPAC in 2020 (OpenSecrets.org), consistently votes for unconditional aid to Israel. His 'concern' for peace sounds less like a diplomatic strategy and more like a talking point for continued military funding and expanding
settlements, ensuring that the 'threat' persists—and so does the need for US intervention. One might ask, how much 'peace' can a people have when their very existence is framed as a threat?
