US to Beleaguered Gazans…
by Walt Zlotow
“Besides no food, water, medicine, electricity, no way out….no ceasefire for you.”
America, along with cruel allies Britain, France, and Japan, voted down a UN Security Council resolution calling for a humanitarian ceasefire in Gaza.
Why? It was proposed by imaginary US enemy Russia, supported by our other imaginary enemy China, and didn’t condemn Hamas. But neither did it condemn Israel. That is the whole point of proposing and achieving a ceasefire…. to stop the dying so mediation and diplomacy can begin in a toned down atmosphere.
Catastrophically for Gazans, that is the last thing America apparently wants. There are $10 billion in proposed new weapons for Israel that must be spent to keep the war profits flowing… and Gazans dying.
