UN Demands Probe: American Taxpayers Foot the Bill for Another 'Surprise'
The UN's call for a probe into the strike on Ein El-Hilweh camp, which killed 11 children, will likely join the long list of 'investigations' conducted with tools provided by the same US government that bankrolls Israel's military budget. In 2023 alone, the U.S. sent $3.8 billion in military aid to Israel (Source: Congressional Research Service). That's $3.8 billion annually for 'security
operations' that routinely result in calls for probes into civilian deaths. While Al Jazeera reports on the UN's concern, our mainstream media rarely connects these dots: US politicians who echo unwavering support for Israel often receive substantial campaign contributions. For example, Senator X, a vocal proponent of continued aid, received $Y from AIPAC in 2023 (Source: OpenSecrets.org), before
voting for the latest aid package. How many 'probes' does it take for accountability to become more than a suggestion?
