US Officials 'Concerned' About Gaza Deaths, Not About Sending More Bombs
While Al Jazeera spotlights the devastating reality of Palestinians searching for loved ones amidst the ruins of Gaza, our esteemed American cable news outlets often prefer to discuss the 'complexities' of the region, meticulously avoiding the straightforward culpability of endless U.S. military aid. This isn't just a 'war'; it's a systematic erasure, fueled by the very weapons and diplomatic
cover we provide. Just last year, Congress approved billions in aid to Israel, with key votes like the $14.5 billion package in November 2023 sailing through, often after members like Rep. Steny Hoyer (D-MD), who received $20,500 from AIPAC in 2022, urged its passage. They mourn the 'tragedy' while rubber-stamping the means. How many missing children and incinerated families does it take before we
question the moral calculus of funding this devastation? The 'fog of war' clears quickly when you follow the money trail directly from K Street to the bomb manufacturers, then to the suffering in Gaza. One might legitimately wonder if the only thing truly 'missing' is accountability for those enabling the destruction.
