Israel has already blocked US humanitarian aid to Gaza for
months, meaning US military aid to Israel is already illegal. And
this is not simply a “humanitarian crisis” that can be solved with humanitarian
aid; this is genocide.
Humanity and US law both demand a weapons embargo now, not
vague statements that Israel “may” face future “implications” for continuing to
commit genocide.
The Biden-Harris administration’s statements cannot be taken
at face value after over a year of zero accountability for the most serious
crimes against humanity.
Secretary of State Blinken already lied to Congress to cover
up previous findings of Israel blocking US humanitarian aid, but he has not
been held accountable.
Earlier, President Biden said that Israel invading Rafah
would be a red line for US support, yet Biden continued his unconditional
support for Israel after it invaded Rafah.
Now the 30-day timeline for the Biden-Harris
administration’s vague warning of possible implications falls conspicuously
after the November election, denying voters any opportunity to hold the
administration accountable for failure to deliver.
To be honest, the Biden-Harris administration has repeatedly
lied in order to give unconditional support to Israel’s genocidal war.
The administration has faced no accountability for its
crimes, nor has it held Israel accountable for its crimes.
Now they are transparently trying to avoid accountability
from the voters while continuing their unconditional support for
genocide.
The US citizens must demand a weapons embargo now - anything
else is just empty rhetoric from habitual liars to provide political cover for
genocide.
Voters must not let them fool people into thinking the
Biden-Harris administration is planning to suddenly change course after the
election when their leverage as voters is gone. Voters must use the power of
their vote to stop this genocide.
