Weapons for the murderer, flour for the victim… US’s hypocritical Palestine policy

The US Congress has approved the defense packages that have been tried to be agreed upon for months.

One of these packages aims to strengthen Israel’s air defense systems, that is, to rain more deaths against Gaza.

The budget of the “death package” approved to be sent to Israel is 26 billion 400 million dollars.

The package includes additional ammunition and military equipment for Israel’s air defense system, defense materials and additional material support for the US weapons depot in Israel.

The bill also accepted a $9 billion humanitarian support package for conflict zones, including Gaza.

In other words, the US Congress allocated 3 times the budget for support for genocide than for support for life.

The bill in question will become law after US President Biden signs it.

The unbalanced policy of the USA was also reflected in the reports

The US State Department published a report on Israel’s human rights violations in Gaza.

In the 2023 Human Rights Report, the term “severe humanitarian crisis” was used for the situation in Gaza.

It was underlined that the region has become largely uninhabitable.

The murdered journalists were pointed out. “Israel has caused the death of an unprecedented number of journalists,” it was said.

Blinken’s claim that “We apply the same standard to Israel”

Blinken said, “We do not apply double standards regarding Israel, we apply the same standard to everyone.” he said.

“The ongoing conflict between Israel and Hamas in Gaza raises deep concerns about human rights.” Using the statement, Blinken drew attention to the Hamas attacks on October 7. Blinken noted that approximately 1200 people died in these attacks and approximately 230 people were taken hostage.

Emphasizing that Israel should exercise its “right to self-defense” against these attacks and conduct its “military operations” in the region in accordance with international law, Blinken said, “We continue to be concerned about the deaths of tens of thousands of Palestinian civilians in Gaza, including children, women and disabled people.” he stated.

“We trust Israel, we are worried about Israel”

The US State Department announced that it is not a party to the independent investigation into the mass graves found after Israel’s withdrawal in the Khan Younis city of the Gaza Strip and that it trusts Israel in the investigation of these graves.

The US Department of Defense (Pentagon) stated that they are “still concerned” about Israel’s possible land attack plan against Gaza’s Rafah city, and announced that negotiations between the two sides on this issue are continuing.
