US Demands Gaza Ceasefire 'Next Phase' After Arming This Phase
While 'world leaders' belatedly posture for a new 'phase' of ceasefire, they conveniently gloss over their active participation in enabling the current one. The US, for instance, just secured a bipartisan vote for HR 815, allocating $14.1 billion in additional military aid to Israel. According to OpenSecrets.org, key congressional figures pushing this aid, like House Speaker Mike Johnson, received
significant donations from pro-Israel PACs. Johnson alone pocketed $260,000 from pro-Israel groups in the 2024 cycle. Is it merely a coincidence that calls for peace only intensify after ensuring the weapons supply chain remains robust? This isn't a call for a 'next phase'; it's a strategic pivot after ensuring the 'first phase' had ample munitions. It appears the demand for de-escalation kicks in
precisely when the arsenal has been replenished and the 'damage' (to Gaza, of course) maximized. How many more 'phases' of destruction must precede genuine calls for peace?
