The American Israel Public Affairs Committee (AIPAC) is lobbying against modest legislation meant to ensure Israel complies with the supposed Gaza “ceasefire” deal it keeps violating, according to correspondence obtained by Zeteo.

Moderate Democratic Rep. Sean Casten (D-Ill.) is leading the bill, called the Ceasefire Compliance Act, which was released Monday. The legislation aims to stop Israel from violating the Gaza ceasefire deal, negotiated by Donald Trump. Israel has already allegedly violated the deal hundreds and hundreds of times.

The Ceasefire Compliance Act would direct the US government to conduct reports every 90 days to ensure that the Israeli government is complying with the ceasefire deal, is not inhibiting aid into Gaza, does not annex more territory in the Israeli-occupied West Bank, and is taking steps to stop settler violence there.
