The current landscape of the Israeli war against Hamas has turned to Rafah, where bombings have begun and there are talks for a ground invasion. Now Biden’s administration has stated that Biden disapproves of a Rafah invasion, however, people are complaining this same president has allowed constant funding for Israel’s war on Hamas/Gaza. There’s even a current hashtag on Twitter known as “Joe Biden in November” with many stating they will no longer vote for the President. Lastly, it seems there has been updated footage of bombings in Rafah from Egypt showing the decimation.
Rafah Bombings
Last week there were discussions of a potential cease fire between Hamas/Gaza and Israel. The negotiations seem to continue even though the bombings of Rafah have begun. Multiple news outlets have highlighted there is footage from numerous sources that the bombings have begun. Additionally, to support this statement Israel has dropped papers into the area stating civilians should evacuate due to the military operations of bombings. Finally, there are talks that Israel may have a ground invasion in that immediate area after artillery shillings.
Again as stated earlier the Biden administration has been opposed to further escalation of the war by Israel. Overall there has been recent aid by the Biden administration’s control through congress that passed a $95 billion dollars of foreign aid to Ukraine and Israel on April 21, 2024. Democrat and Progressive civilians of the United States have been heavily opposed to the war that Israel wages against Hamas in Gaza with university protests all across America.
Biden Fails Democrats
Even though many Democrats and Progressives supported the Biden administration against Trump in the 2020 election, it seems there is a bit of a riff in the promised lands for the left. They are mainly Anti-War, but it seems that the Democrats in office have been Pro-War ever since the Israel offensive began after the disgusting acts committed by Hamas on October 7, 2023. Many Democrat and Progressive people have been disgusted of Israel’s bombings in Rafah and Gaza because it seems that many children have been dying by the bombings.
Allegedly, it also seems that Palestine has undergone some horrors of it’s own that can be closely attributed to a humanitarian crisis. Many parts in Gaza/Palestine have lost power, water, and food supplies causing the entire area to be in a complete turmoil. The United Nations has publicly stated that a ground invasion of Rafah is “intolerable” because of the humanitarian crises that is currently happening in Palestine. They also stated that the ground invasion will continue to destabilize the region and that a ceasefire agreement needs to be made.
Current Thoughts
Now it has been reported that there may be gunshots by an Egyptian news channel known as Al Qahera news. However, current information is not currently known what the gunfire is, but people are speculating that a ground invasion has begun in the region. It’s incredibly crucial to state that the current layout is unknown and this is pure speculation by alleged gunfire in the area at a checkpoint. The most important takeaway here is that the fighting between Israel, Hamas, Gaza, and Palestine has continued on without much pushback from the United States or the Biden administration.
As many Democrats, Progressives, and the overall left feel abandoned even though they are doing their best to show their disapproval through the university protests across the nation. Now this is just speculation, but it seems the Biden administration and Democrats in congress want this war to continue on. Maybe, this could be due to the fact that the US makes a lot of money off war and many of the congressmen and house representatives have donors that are Pro-War. They could all be getting kickbacks in some way, shape, or form due to the war continuing.
Although the kickback section is definitely speculation, it does seem there is a discrepancy from what the people want from the left and what the left is doing. There is definitely a push for war funding in Israel and Ukraine. Many war related companies such as Lockheed Martin, Raytheon, Northrup Grumman, Boeing, General Dynamics, L3Harris, etc. make a lot of money from these wars happening in foreign territories. If Democrat and Republican leaders keep continuing their support, silence, or inaction for these wars what does that really mean?
The reality of the situation is that these companies are extremely powerful and our military is one of the most funded militaries in the entire world. Many times our military can be comparable to many other country’s militaries funding put together. So, what does that really mean for the United States of America? It means we will continue funding wars, making money for our military contractors, and the people who supported the current Biden administration will go unheard. Rafah may only be the kick in the barrel, but there may be more wars coming. Rafah is just the current sacrifice for greed, money, and power. As sad as it is, people’s lives have become a playground for the wealthy and the rich.
