So let's review here: the U.S. and much of the so-called West, cut funding to a UN aid organization that represents the only way to to prevent a literal famine in Gaza, based entirely on unverified accusations from a government engaging in a literal genocide against Palestinians in the territory. Additionally, Israel has never presented any hard evidence that these allegations are true, and that UN agency says Israeli officials extracted flimsy confessions of a UNRWA relationship with Hamas using literal torture. Finally, despite this lack of evidence, Israel's long history of attempting to dismantle the agency that feeds Palestinians, and a UN agency's report that torture was used to extract confessions, the American government's bipartisan position almost two months later is that helping Israel engineer a famine in Gaza by suspending UNRWA aid for the next year at a minimum, is cool and good actually. In fact, we're also going to keep funding Israel and we continue to ship weapons to Netanyahu's military during an ongoing genocide. At what point does this stop being Israel's genocide in Gaza, and start being a joint American-Israeli genocide in Gaza? Because frankly, I think we're already there.
