No more US condom funding for Gaza

Don't believe what you read about US foreign aid and where it ends up. There is so much money involved that goes through so many pipelines that it's rarely what you see. And this brings to mind the "condoms in Gaza" funding we have supplied to our enemy.

On Tuesday, in her first press briefing, White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt  said that the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) and the Office of Budget and Management (OBM) found “that there was about to be $50 million taxpayer dollars that went out the door to fund condoms in Gaza.”

Condoms? Does Gaza need condoms?

The Jerusalem Post reported in 2020 that "scores of condoms were being used to create IED-carrying balloons that winds would carry into southern Israel, raising alarm on schoolyards, farmlands and highways."

At that time, the Post also noted that these improvised explosive devices, carried into Israel by these inflated contraceptives, "burned thousands of hectares of land and caused 'millions of shekels of damage.'" It's uncertain whether this practice is still happening.

Just two days after the tragic events on October 7, 2023, where Hamas terrorists committed brutal acts including the rape of some of the approximately 1,200 victims in southern Israel and took hundreds hostage back to Gaza, the International Planned Parenthood Federation (IPPF) issued a statement. They expressed concern that any blockade of aid to Gaza would undermine the "enormous gains made in life-saving sexual and reproductive healthcare in this region."

However, sexual health in Gaza, like many aspects of life there, is often linked to Islamic terrorism.

The view here is that the U.S. should not be involved in rebuilding Gaza or sending any aid there. The belief is that everything in Gaza relates to terrorism, and anything sent to Gaza might be repurposed for terrorist activities.

Jokes aside, Hamas is so unfathomably evil that they also found a way to use condoms to try and kill Jews.

It looks like everything the Biden administration had done after October 7, 2023, benefitted Hamas and hurt Israel. But as the kids say, 'there's a new sheriff in town.'
