"the us has supplied israel with around 18 billion dollars in military aid since the genocide in gaza began on october the 7th last year. that's according to a report by the american brown university's costs of war project. the report says the
4:36 am
expenditure includes $4 billion dollars towards replenishing israel's iron dome and david's slang missile defense systems as well as cash for guns and jet fuel. it is states that additional $5 billion dollars in funding was supplied to us military operation in west asia during that time frame. this figure includes the costs associated with the us military's attack on yemen, washington has also provided israel with diplomatic support, preventing the un from obbliging the regime to end the genocide. now to give you more insight on the matter, we are now joined by press tvs, rachel hamden from new york. rachel, thank you for coming on. uh, first i want to know your initial thoughts on us providing uh nearly $18 billion dollars today's really side. do you think that this
4:37 am
level of support impact the current us uh policy in the region uh, especially in the light of recent escalations? yes uh, good morning to uh to our viewers, i believe it is morning time uh in uh in tehran now, but uh to answer your question, we've not only seen that this much aid uh, we're talking over over 18 billion now, and this has been going uh not only to uh to israel's genocidal campaign uh on uh, but this is also going to other fronts as well where other people are being uh murdered including lebanon, including yemen, including syria, including iraq, and uh, and we all know that that money, um, we've well to to put it into into more context as well, regarding us policy with the ongoing protests that have been going on, especially today's protest, at
4:38 am
every protest we see that the people are demanding that the us stop arming israel, that the us stopped providing military aid to israel, "and a lot of americans are starting to realize they are becoming more and more aware that this is where our tax money is going. every months all of the work that they've been putting in, these paychecks have ta taxes being taken and these taxes are going to military to israel, which is going to the murder of children in in gaza, lebanon, yemen, syria, and even to the use of uh indiscriminate weapons even to the use of uh internationally banned weapons such as the uh the ones that they abused recently in um in uh in lebanon and southern suburbs of beirot, they used the fosperous bombs and so we can kind of see how even with the upcoming uh elections next month that are due november 5th, we can see that no matter you comes to
4:39 am
office, the policy stays the same, the tax money is going to the same place, which is to us military aid that's going to the genocidal campaign by israel. "and so regardless who comes to office and it's it's still going to stay the same, the money is going to keep going to israel because we all know what the us wants with israel, israel is the soul gateway to west asia, so if the us loses that then they're long, well work for project in order for them to gain a foot in west asia is going to be lost, and so that's why they're trying to use every single uh way that they have in order to provide whatever they can to israel under the guy. the war on terror that they've been using for a really long time, even way before 2001, and so we've we've seen the the people not just in new york, but across the country as well, after they've been becoming more aware of where their money is going, they're saying, we we want this to
4:40 am
stop, we demand that the us government that's taking our tax money in order to stop uh arming israel, because we know that this is going to the murder of children across west asia. namely, lebanon, yemen, syria, and so on. very nice. uh, is there any indication that this aid will continue at similar similar levels? or will it even increase? uh, there there is an expectation that it will increase uh, especially as uh the uh, you know, as as the uh israeli occupation forces are trying to gain uh more of a more steps into into lebanese territory, um, even though we can see this this contradiction with the us whereby they're sending weapons and they're sending money to israel, we can uh also see on the other hand with is quite ironic where they say we need to stop the killing, we need to stop the genocide and we need to, well how do you expect to stop the
4:41 am
genocide if you keep arming the occupation that has been doing this occupation campaign for over 76 years, and so lot of lot of the expectations are going to the outcome which means more aids, um, but again as i said, it's it's seeming uh, and of course there will be statistics, there will be lot of research on this more, but it is seeming as if it will go higher, also depending on who comes into office, be be it presidential candidate comla harris or be it presidential candidate donald trump, and we know that they've both both expressed uh, this this whole and i quote israel's right to self-defense, they've both both expressed that, they've both expressed their their unconditional and unwavering support for the occupation, so... it would be weird to to see or unexpected to see any aid stopping soon.

a symbolic funeral for real human beings. nearly 42,000 palestinian men, women and children slaughtered in israel's genocide, their hopes and dreams shattered, their laughter silence forever. sometimes sending message is more powerful through silence, and this one here in london a symbolic funeral procession, a stark act of protest over israel's genocidal campaign in gaza. "they may be silent, but the numerous passers by capturing the moment on their phones demonstrates their being seen. on the anniversary of the gaza genocide, the morers
4:52 am
here say they want the palestinians to know they're here for them. so definitely it's showing people that we haven't forgotten, we're not going to forget anytime soon. we are here stronger than ever from the first day when this happened last year, till today we have not stopped and we will continue to give just as much. for as long as we need to, and inshallah that's not too much longer. for british palestinian maher hajjaj, a grandchild of the nakba of 1948, this is also personal, seeing what's happening in gaza evokes bitter memories, but he says the fight for liberation is on. one year on, one year strong, uh, one year of terrorism, but one year of resistance, and actually 100 years of it. we palestinians have lived through the worst of circumstances, but we're still. here and we're still resistant because at the end the day terrorism can't win um and evil can't win and uh we are the majority, like if you look around in britain, us as a community, a
4:53 am
british palestinian community, it comes from all backgrounds, all races, all faiths, all political spectrums, this is something that united everyone, as night falls they walk past the houses of parliament and the prime minister's office, solem reminder to those who have the power to put an end to it all, but have chosen not to. it's just horrific that in this one day age of social media, where we have access to all the information, that our own government, labor government is supporting the genocide, the murder of thousands of people. my understanding is that if we stopped arming israel along with, i think germany, france and the us, four days time, this would be stopped. as the bombs continue falling, the world will moarn the slaughter of more palestinians. in the days and weeks ahead, for the morners here, standing up together is simply what they can and must do. sidepur is up press tv, london.
