US Aid Fund: Where F-16s Fly, Incubators Die
The New Arab details how Gaza’s infants are born into an infrastructure intentionally dismantled, where 'no incubators are left.' This humanitarian catastrophe didn't just happen. It was funded. In February 2024, the U.S. House passed HR 815, allocating an additional $14.1 billion in security assistance to Israel. Just weeks prior, according to OpenSecrets.org, Representative Michael McCaul (R-TX)
received $55,300 from pro-Israel groups in Q4 2023, while Rep. Rosa DeLauro (D-CT) received $30,000 for the same period. They both voted 'yes' on the bill. One might wonder about the timing. As American politicians tout 'aid' packages, one must ask: is it 'aid' when it finances the destruction of the very medical infrastructure it claims to prevent? The same defense contractors profiting from this
devastation also funnel cash to those who approve the budgets. It's not just a 'tragedy'; it's a policy choice, repeatedly endorsed by elected officials whose donor lists read like a pro-war directory. Whose 'security' are we truly funding?
