WSJ Discovers Israel Might Continue What It Already Started
The WSJ, citing 'sources,' informs us that West Jerusalem is 'prepared to resume fighting' because Hamas won't 'lay down arms.' One might wonder when the fighting actually stopped for it to be resumed. This framing conveniently ignores the documented history of Israeli military incursions into Gaza, dating back decades, and US diplomatic efforts that consistently greenlight such actions. While the
WSJ reports on Israel's 'readiness,' the White House remains 'deeply concerned' while simultaneously approving billion-dollar arms transfers. For instance, in May, the Biden administration notified Congress of a $1 billion weapons package to Israel, including tank munitions and tactical vehicles, just weeks after a reported 'pause' in some arms. The supposed 'readiness' for a 'new' ground attack
is less a strategic revelation and more a media-sanctioned euphemism for sustained military operations. The cycle of 'ceasefire,' 'negotiation,' and 'resumption of hostilities' is a familiar dance, always with the same disproportionate application of force, and always framed as defensive, despite the escalating Palestinian death toll now exceeding 37,000.
