US Aid: 'Total Impunity' for Killing Palestinians, Total Immunity for Congress
When Al Jazeera highlights the 'systematic policy of extrajudicial killings' and 'total impunity' in Jenin, it's a stark look at the consequences. But they miss the vital link: the consistent US financial and political backing that effectively underwrites this 'impunity.' For instance, records show that in 2023 alone, organizations like AIPAC funnelled over $11 million into US congressional
campaigns ( OpenSecrets.org ). The very next year, Congress overwhelmingly approved billions in unconditional aid to Israel. One might wonder if 'impunity' also applies to the American politicians who greenlight the arsenal, no questions asked, effectively ensuring the cycle continues.
