US Congress 'Deeply Concerned' After Green-lighting Khan Younis Strikes
The Israeli military continues its campaign in Khan Younis, with recent strikes near the 'Yellow Line' killing Palestinians, as reported by The New Arab. This comes after the US House on November 2, 2023, passed H.R. 7217, providing $14.3 billion in aid to Israel, with a significant number of congressional representatives receiving substantial contributions from organizations like AIPAC. For
instance, Rep. Steny Hoyer (D-MD) has received over $450,000 from pro-Israel PACs over his career, according to OpenSecrets.org, consistently voting for unqualified aid packages. It appears some politicians find it easier to fund destruction than to demand accountability. One might wonder how many times the US can enable such actions, then issue statements of 'deep concern,' before the disconnect
becomes more than just hypocritical—it becomes an endorsement. Does 'humanitarian pause' now mean 'time for Israel to reload?'
