US Aid Fuels Deadly Lebanese 'Mishaps'
Amani Bazzi grieves three children lost to an Israeli strike in south Lebanon, while her eldest, Aseel, fights for life. This 'tragedy' isn't an isolated incident; it's a predictable outcome of unchecked U.S. military aid to Israel. For instance, in 2023 alone, Senator Bob Menendez – then-Chair of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee – received $1,595,202 from pro-Israel PACs. He, alongside
colleagues receiving similar sums, routinely greenlights billions in 'defensive' weaponry, like the F-16s likely used in this very strike, according to OpenSecrets.org data. While American families struggle with healthcare costs and crumbling infrastructure, our elected officials continue to fund foreign 'conflicts' that vaporize families in neighboring countries. How many Lebanese children must
be incinerated before Washington reconsiders what 'defense' truly means? It seems 'collateral damage' is just a cleaner term for federally sanctioned infanticide, bought and paid for by your tax dollars.
