The Obama regime has announced an increased military aid package--$38 billion over the next tens years--to the Zionist entity even as it kills and maims Palestinians at an alarming rate. This makes the US complicit in Zionist crimes.

Under the US-Israel agreement of September 13, Washington will provide $38 billion over the next ten years to the Zionist entity when the current agreement expires in 2018.
One can visualize Benjamin Netanyahu, one of the most unpleasant characters in a long line of unsavory characters that the Zionist entity has produced, sinking into his deep sofa chair with a broad grin at hearing the news.
Publicly, Netanyahu would still be at his obnoxious best by berating Barack Obama—whom he treats with undisguised disdain—that he did not agree to the $45 billion the former had demanded, but $38 billion is no small beer. This means the Zionists military will get $3.8 billion every year in lethal military equipment starting in 2019.
The Zionist killing machine will now be able to kill the oppressed Palestinians more efficiently and American members of Congress as well as White House officials will be able to sleep comfortably for having done so much more for their favorite country: the State of Israel.
As human rights advocate Elizabeth Tsurkov tweeted, the latest military aid package amounts to US taxpayers subsidizing violations of human rights in occupied Palestine.
Since last October heavily-armed Zionist squatters (euphemistically called ‘Jewish settlers’) have intensified their attacks on Palestinians in the West Bank and Jerusalem. More than 220 Palestinians have been killed and thousands injured—most of them from bullets being fired from high velocity rifles.
Even prior to last October’s escalation, Zionist squatters had indulged in horrific crime: 18-month old baby Ali Saad Dawabsheh was burnt alive in the village of Duma on the Occupied West Bank on July 31, 2015. The baby’s parents and his four-year-old brother also suffered severe burns when Zionist squatters set their family house on fire.
Last month, an Israeli court set free the Zionist squatter guilty of this horrific crime.
There are some 7,000 Palestinians in Israeli prisons in violation of the Geneva Conventions of 1949. As an occupying power, Israel cannot transfer the population under occupation to prisons in another locality. Further, it is required to protect, not kill the Palestinians yet the Zionist entity routinely violates its obligations.
There are also more than 500 children in Israeli prisons. They are not only subjected to physical abuse—beatings with sticks as well rifle butts—but also sexually abused. Six years ago (May 2010), the Israeli daily Haaretz reported that more than 100 Palestinian minors had been subjected to sexual abuse. In the intervening six years, this number has gone up.
Despite these well document horrors—on September 14, some 40 members of the European Parliament mounted an exhibition in Brussels, Belgium highlighting Israeli human rights violations—the Obama regime announced a massive aid package to the Zionist entity.
Israel can do no wrong even when it sexually abuses Palestinian children or burns babies to death. With the new military aid package, the Zionist army would be able to kill and maim Palestinian children more efficiently.
