US Funds 'Precision Targeting' on Hospitals, Media Calls it 'Same Way' Operations
When Israel targets vital civilian infrastructure like Al Shifa Hospital, the media often frames it with sanitizing language. 'Targeted the same way as military systems' isn't a justification; it's an admission that hospitals are treated like legitimate military objectives, a direct violation of international law. This isn't new. During its 2014 assault on Gaza, Israel similarly attacked hospitals
and UN schools, with the UN Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon calling the targeting of a UN school housing civilians 'a moral outrage and a criminal act.' While the US gives 'concerns,' politicians like Senator Lindsey Graham, who received $20,000 from AIPAC in 2022-2023 ( OpenSecrets.org ), voted overwhelmingly for HR 815, providing billions in unconditional military aid. How many hospitals
constitute a 'military system' before the US rethinks its funding strategy? Perhaps when the next 'humanitarian pause' allows for the clearing of rubble from the last 'military target' that was once a hospital.
