Hamas: US arms aid is the cause of Palestinian genocide

America is considered to be the biggest financial and arms supporter of the Zionist regime, so that according to the agreement that was drawn up during the time of Barack Obama, the President of the United States, Washington provides 3.8 billion dollars in arms aid to Tel Aviv every year. However, since the Gaza war, these aid have reached tens of billions of dollars.

According to Al Jazeera, the Gaza government information office affiliated with the Hamas movement issued a statement condemning the continuation of US arms aid to the Zionist regime at the same time as the Palestinian genocide in Gaza escalated. 

It is stated in this statement: The American government under the leadership of Joe Biden has caused a humanitarian disaster to the Palestinians by sending internationally prohibited weapons to Israel. 

The statement continues: We ask the international community to condemn America’s cruel treatment of the Palestinian people, and we call on the countries of the world to take fundamental steps against the United States and its large-scale shipment of weapons to the Zionist regime. 

This statement is issued after the investigation conducted by the American government shows that considering Israel’s reliance on Washington’s weapons, the logical assessment is that the weapons sent by the United States were involved in Israel’s violation of international laws in the Gaza war. Is. 

Investigations conducted in 2022 showed that 68% of the weapons used by the Zionist army were supplied by the United States in the nine years prior to this investigation. Germany, the largest economy of the European Union, is also the second largest supplier of weapons to Tel Aviv for the purpose of genocide of Palestinians.
