‘What about Gaza?’ Pro-Palestine demonstrators interrupt Biden

Pro-Palestinian protesters interrupted US President Joe Biden’s speech in the state of Arizona, calling for an end to Israel’s attack on the Gaza Strip.

While Biden was formally apologising for the US’s role in the Indian boarding school system a demonstrator shouted, “What about the people of Gaza?”

“Free Palestine!” others yelled out.

The president allowed the woman to speak and said he agreed violence in the region needs to end. “Let her go. There’s a lot of innocent people being killed and it has to stop,” said Biden.

US Muslim group says Biden administration allowing Israel’s genocide

The Council on American–Islamic Relations (CAIR) denounced the US government for doing nothing after its ally Israel launched a series of deadly attacks that killed dozens of Palestinians in Gaza, including many children.

“If the slaughter of babies in hospitals and children in their sleep does not shock the conscience of the Biden administration officials supporting the far-right Israeli government’s genocide in Gaza, nothing will,” said CAIR’s national executive director, Nihad Awad, in a statement.

“What crime would Israel have to commit that would end the Biden administration’s complicity in genocide? There is apparently no limit to the crimes against humanity that Biden administration officials will support or excuse.”

Military aid to Israel causing Gaza ‘catastrophe in the first place’

Nothing is going to happen to stop the war on Gaza as long as the United States supports Israel unconditionally. The international community today would like to talk more about increasing humanitarian aid.

But at the same time, they refuse to talk about reducing military aid to Israel, which is causing the humanitarian catastrophe in the first place. Why? Because it’s just much easier to do politics with slogans.

They know all too well that humanitarian aid is not even getting in, but at the same time are refusing to cut military assistance because Israel is an American-British ally and is doing their bidding in the Middle East.
