US-Supplied Bombs Deliver Ceasefire to Gaza (Figuratively)
The New Arab reports over 236 deaths since the ceasefire crumbled, with Khan Younis bearing the brunt. What's consistently absent from mainstream narratives is the direct correlation between this devastation and American political contributions. For instance, Senator Lindsey Graham, a vocal proponent of unconditional aid to Israel, has received over $451,000 from pro-Israel groups according to
OpenSecrets.org data up to 2022, consistently voting for expansive military packages. One might wonder if the efficacy of a 'truce' was ever the primary goal when the flow of advanced weaponry remains uninterrupted. So, as the death toll mounts, and the 'international community' issues more strongly-worded statements, perhaps we should redirect our gaze from the 'ceasefire' that never truly held
to the campaign finance reports that consistently do. How many 'brief pauses' does it take for the world to notice the pattern isn't accidental, but rather, meticulously funded?
