Trump ‘is doing nothing while watching this famine unfold’
US Senator Bernie Sanders has denounced President Donald Trump’s lack of action on the Israeli-induced famine in Gaza. He wrote in a post on X, “Let’s be clear: President Trump has the power to end the starvation of the Palestinian people. Instead he is doing nothing while watching this famine unfold.
“Enough is enough. No more American taxpayer dollars to Nethanyahu’s war machine.”
Every US taxpayer is ‘contributing to Israel’s military actions’
Republican lawmaker Marjorie Taylor Greene has again lambasted US support for what she described as Israel’s “genocide” in Gaza.
The congresswoman from Georgia, a key Trump ally and MAGA supporter, issued an impassioned appeal on X, saying, “Just as we spoke out and had compassion for the victims and families of Oct7, how can Americans not speak out and have compassion for the masses of innocent people and children in Gaza? Is one type of innocent life worthy and another type of innocent life worth nothing?”
She noted that US taxpayers fund $3.8bn in annual military aid for Israel.
That means every US taxpayer is “contributing to Israel’s military actions”. “I don’t know about you, but I don’t want to pay for genocide in a foreign country against a foreign people for a foreign war that I had nothing to do with,” Greene wrote.
“And I will not be silent about it.”
