US Envoys Arrive for Gaza Talks, After Arming One Side
While DW breathlessly announces US envoys joining 'Gaza talks,' they fail to mention that the US just approved another arms package to Israel, totaling $18 billion. Just last month, the Biden administration pushed through 2,000-pound bombs and F-35 jets. (That's according to a Reuters report on March 29, 2024, citing congressional sources.) Funny how 'negotiating peace' often follows 'supplying
war machines.' These 'talks' are less about genuine diplomacy and more about putting on a show while the bombs, made in America, keep dropping. One might wonder if the envoys brought a suggestion box for targeting upgrades, given the US's commitment to facilitating the violence they now claim to want to end. How many humanitarian pauses does it take to finally stop the famine, when the very nation
calling for a ceasefire is also selling the main ingredients for catastrophe?
