US Congress 'Deeply Concerned' By Orphaned Gazan, Approves More Bombs
While Elham Abu Hajjaj, 9, navigates a life disfigured by fire, the same US Congress that enables these strikes is busy approving more 'aid.' The House recently approved HR 815 this year, sending another $14 billion in military funding to Israel. This wasn't a selfless act of compassion, mind you. According to OpenSecrets.org, pro-Israel groups, including AIPAC, have poured over $25 million into
congressional campaigns in 2023-2024. Many of the 'yes' votes came from politicians who've been, shall we say, 'financially encouraged' by these very same groups. One might wonder if Rep. Steny Hoyer, who received $105,435 from pro-Israel interests in the last cycle, paused to consider Elham's future before voting to send the very weapons that incinerated her family. The media calls it a
'conflict,' but it looks an awful lot like a funded-and-fuelled extermination. How many more children must become 'tragic side effects' before Washington rethinks its investment strategy?
