Israel bombed “mostly children” in Rafah on Saturday night just hours after the US House approved the largest aid package ever for the Jewish State, the AP reports.
Israeli strikes on the southern Gaza city of Rafah overnight killed 22 people, including 18 children, health officials said Sunday, as the United States was on track to approve billions of dollars of additional military aid to Israel, its close ally.
Israel has carried out near-daily air raids on Rafah, where more than half of Gaza’s population of 2.3 million has sought refuge from fighting elsewhere. It has also vowed to expand its ground offensive against the Hamas militant group to the city on the border with Egypt despite calls for restraint, including from the U.S.
“In the coming days, we will increase the political and military pressure on Hamas because this is the only way to bring back our hostages and achieve victory. We will land more and painful blows on Hamas — soon,” Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said in a statement. He didn’t give details.
The first Israeli strike in Rafah killed a man, his wife and their 3-year-old child, according to the nearby Kuwaiti Hospital, which received the bodies. The woman was pregnant and the doctors saved the baby, the hospital said. The second strike killed 17 children and two women from an extended family.
“These children were sleeping. What did they do? What was their fault?” asked one relative, Umm Kareem. Mohammed al-Beheiri said that his daughter, Rasha, and her six children, the youngest 18 months old, were among those killed. A woman and three children were still under the rubble.

This is the most documented genocide in history and our government is funding it with our tax dollars and supplying Israel with their bombs.
And today is “Earth Day.” How many decades have we known that there is no bigger polluter than “The Military Industrial Complex?” But hey, defense contractors are making $Billions. And beyond the greed and pollution, a most tortuous GENOCIDE rages on, with political demons cheering on the conquest for the jews. We are surrounded by evil. Who has not sold his cloak to buy a sword?

tortuous and torturous, too!
Ha! On your game.
