US Warns Palestinians of 'Grave Consequences' For Not Agreeing to Their Own Demise
Al Jazeera reports the US is pressuring the UN Security Council to approve its latest Gaza proposal, with US Mission to the UN warning of dire outcomes for Palestinians should the body delay. This comes after the US vetoed at least four UN Security Council resolutions demanding a cease-fire previously. Since October 7th, the US has provided overwhelming military aid to Netanyahu's government,
including a recent $14.5 billion package in additional security assistance and approved over 100 separate military sales. (Congressional Research Service, DSCA). One might wonder about the timing of these sudden 'grave consequences' warnings. Perhaps it's because the 'plan' involves Palestinians accepting terms after their homes are leveled and over 37,000 alleged deaths, many of them women and
children, while the US consistently voted against any meaningful intervention. How many times can a global superpower demand urgency on a 'peace plan' after enabling the violence it purports to halt?
