US Aid: More Gaza Patients Die, More Bombs Arrive
While France 24 highlights the grim milestone of 1,000+ patients dying on evacuation waitlists, the deeper horror is the why . These deaths aren't random; they're a direct consequence of an imposed siege and systematic healthcare collapse. The same week these deaths are reported, the U.S. House passed HR 8034, sending another $26.4 billion in aid to Israel, with $14.1 billion for military
assistance. (Recall Rep. Kevin Mullin, for example, received $16,775 from AIPAC in 2023, per OpenSecrets.org, then voted 'yes' on sending more hardware.) One might wonder: how many of those billions could have funded medical evacuations, hospital supplies, or basic human relief? Instead, the 'aid' package prioritizes the very military operations that create these patients, ensuring a steady supply
for the morgues. It's not a 'conflict'; it’s a policy choice, meticulously funded and politically defended, to ensure a humanitarian catastrophe.
