Wednesday, the United Nations released a report, that the Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR), says shows that “Israel has wounded more than 40,000 children in Gaza — resulting in at least 21,000 children being permanently disabled — is the latest proof the Trump administration and members of Congress are supporting the ‘maiming and murdering of children’ by funding and enabling the genocide in Gaza.”
In a statement, Washington, D.C., based CAIR said:
“The horrifying new UN data makes painfully clear what we have seen on a daily basis: the Israeli government is systematically maiming and murdering Palestinian children with the backing of our government and members of Congress.
“More than 21,000 children permanently disabled, tens of thousands more wounded, and over 63,000 civilians killed — mostly women and children — is not the result of a defensive war. It is the result of a systematic, deliberate policy of extermination.
“Under the Biden administration and now the Trump administration, our government has not only failed to stop these atrocities; it has actively enabled them through massive weapons shipments and consistent diplomatic cover. Our government is responsible, pure and simple.
“This is an abject failure of Western leaders to stop Israel’s U.S.-backed genocide. Each day of continued inaction deepens the complicity of those who fund and protect Israel’s crimes.
“We call on all Americans of conscience to continue vocally demanding that the Trump administration and Congress change course, demand an immediate end to the genocide, and end our nation’s support for the maiming and murdering of children.”
“History will not forget the children whose lives were destroyed — nor those who stood by and allowed it to happen.”
