I'm ashamed that my taxes are funding this. It doesn't feel like there's much that can be done to change that. AIPAC has a very serious influence on our government and I worry that its impact is just leading to more deaths and more suffering.
Just a reminder that Aljazeera is the state sponsored news of Qatar, a county that hosts Hamas leaders and is close allies with Iran. It’s not a valid news source.

For some reason I find this last sentence so utterly beautiful in context it brings tears to my eyes. Here is a 14-year-old Arabic boy being tortured by Jews and STILL he operates from a worldview that viewing other human beings as lesser is unnatural. Thank you, Mohammed. What an image of beauty and horror.

The things I've read about happening in Gaza are horrific. I'm ashamed that my taxes are funding this. It doesn't feel like there's much that can be done to change that.

Are you calling UN humanitarian aid some kind of "bankroll"?
That feels disingenuous at best...
