Journal Part 7

Date of the Article: April 30, 2024 Date of the Blog: May 6, 2024 News source: The Guardian News To begin with, this news article goes over the conflicts in Gaza and the US involvement in sending US arms. The article is written in a factual and informative tone. Also framed very well. Firstly, the article provides insight about the US arms, quote from the article “more than 100 separate foreign military sales had been made to Israel since October 7th, shedding light on the extent of US involvement in arming the Israeli military” It provides informative and factual information. The article also talks about what the pentagon faced while delivering the arms. Secondly, the article goes in depth about how much the Israeli military relies on Us support by talking about all the supplies US has supplied them with “US has provided over $123 billion of military aid to Israel to date” . It also states 69% of Israeli military supplies was sourced from the US. Thirdly, talking about framing, the article tries to draw attention to the humanitarian consequences. It talks about how this is affecting the people there. Lastly, since this article is about the US trying to stop supporting them, I see some bias, but it also has a lot of support on how much Us has helped them. https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/article/2024/may/09/does-israel-need-more-us-arms-for-a-rafah-offensive
