Another Tragic Loss, Another Injustice 9/7/2024

                                                  Another Tragic Loss, Another Injustice

The recent killing of an American activist in the West Bank is a chilling reminder of Rachel Corrie’s fate, an American who was crushed by a bulldozer while trying to protect a Palestinian home. The United States, once again, appears unwilling to take a strong stand. President Biden, too old and feeble, seems incapable of challenging Netanyahu’s relentless killing machine. Likewise, Vice President Harris seems more focused on her political future than on saving innocent lives.
Israel's recent violence, coinciding with the 2024 election cycle, highlights a calculated brutality. Not only was the American activist killed, but a 13-year-old Palestinian girl was also shot dead while watching clashes from her window. The death toll continues to rise in the West Bank, where over 600 have been killed since the war in Gaza began. Yet, the U.S. government remains silent, reluctant to act decisively.
How many more lives will it take before America holds Israel accountable for these atrocities? The ongoing loss of life, both American and Palestinian, demands more than just thoughts and prayers—it demands action.
