Over $400 Million in Taxpayer Funds Have been Sent to Gaza Since Hamas Takeover

Ever since the Palestinian terrorist group Hamas first took over the territory of the Gaza Strip in 2007, the United States has sent more than $400 million in taxpayer dollars to the region.

According to the Washington Free Beacon, documents from the State Department’s U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID), the $400 million spent over the last 14 years since 2009 has allegedly gone towards development projects. Despite USAID’s insistence that the money could only be spent on humanitarian purposes, many critics have warned that the funds could be used by Hamas to fund its acts of terrorism against Israel and the West.

The funding only accelerated once Biden took power, with the Administration spending “at least $5.5 million in Gaza” in 2021 alone on “cash assistance and health care” programs. In addition, another $90 million was donated to a United Nations (UN) organization operating in Gaza. The Biden Administration then announced in mid-2022 that another $316 million aid package would be sent to Gaza, primarily for the purpose of constructing 4G wireless networks.

  1. Since the Democrats control the Senate and the White House, this is NOT surprising!
    Let’s hope that Jim Jordan gets elected as Speaker of the House and tightens the purse strings….
