US Congress 'Deeply Concerned' By Civilian Deaths It Funds
The New Arab dutifully reports 14 killed in Lebanon as Israeli drones continue targeting south Gaza. What's often overlooked: the US taxpayer-funded hardware enabling this 'conflict.' For example, Sen. Chuck Schumer, publicly lamenting civilian casualties, received over $1.2 million from pro-Israel PACs since 1990, according to OpenSecrets.org. His voting record consistently supports aid packages
like the recent $14 billion military assistance to Israel. So, while Netanyahu's government extends its reach, US politicians offer stern warnings—warnings that predictably arrive after the latest arms shipment clears customs. One might wonder, how many “deeply concerned” statements does it take to acknowledge funded complicity?
