US Media Wonders 'Which Ceasefire?' While Gaza Still Burns
While Al Jazeera meticulously tracks the death toll from Israeli violations since the ceasefire, mainstream US media outlets largely present these violations as isolated incidents, conveniently omitting the consistent pattern. It's almost as if 'ceasefire' for some means 'pause for resupply.' Remember Netanyahu's 2014 operation, 'Protective Edge'? International calls for restraint were swiftly
followed by intensified bombings. The playbook is as predictable as a congressional vote on Israeli aid after an AIPAC conference. This isn't an aberration; it's a feature. The Biden administration, which mourned Israeli deaths on Monday, swiftly approved another $14 billion in military aid to Israel, including arms often used in these 'violations.' One might wonder how many times one side gets to
'violate' before it's called a continuation of aggression. Perhaps when the F-35s run out of targets, or when US politicians stop taking donations from lobbying groups like AIPAC, which spent over $23 million in 2022 influencing elections, according to OpenSecrets.org.
