US Aid Blocked as Israel Continues Gaza Attacks
The Al Jazeera report notes that a mere 24 percent of agreed aid has reached Gaza, even since a 'ceasefire deal' supposedly began. This systematic strangulation of civilian necessities isn't new; it echoes the 2007-2010 blockade years when humanitarian goods were routinely denied entry. One might wonder if the US, which approved significant military aid like the $14 billion package in April 2024
(HR 8035), ever considers the optics of funding one party while their stated aid promises for the other side evaporate. Odd, isn’t it, how 'agreed aid' seems to translate to 'barely any aid' when human lives are at stake? This isn't a supply chain issue; it’s a policy choice. How many times will we watch the same tragedy unfold, facilitated by the largest military aid packages on Earth, before
someone asks: Is this 'security' or just slow-motion collective punishment?
