In this blog, I have written about the current situation in Gaza, especially Rafah, and the response of the international community on this issue.
Since October 7th, Israel has killed more than 35,000 Palestinian civilians, including children. The situation in Rafah is getting even worse, where the displaced Palestinians have taken shelter in. The hostilities can rise further as Israel continues to bomb Gaza, especially Rafah, and as Israeli tanks continue to move to the centre of Rafah. This is not only limited to Palestinian civilians, but the Israeli army has also claimed the lives of more than 100 journalists and 224 aid workers, including 179 workers of UNRWA.

The ruling of ICJ has had no impact on Israel. There has been an insufficient response by the international community against the Israeli massacare of Palestinians. The West especially the US and its allies which call themselves the champions of 'freedom of expression, democracy, Human rights' are silent on the atrocities and human rights violations convicted by the Israeli army against the Palestinians. They are not only silent but supplying Israel with weapons and aid. Are these your so-called values that you call yourself guardians of that you are advocating for the Israeli genocide or are these values only reserved for people in the West. Don't the Palestinians have any human rights or you think that only people in west are humans and only thet have human rights? The Western governments call themselves the 'beackon of light' for freedom of speech. Well, what about the protesters protesting in various Western countries like US,UK, Germany and Sweden against their own governments for supporting Israel, especially the student protests being conducted in various universities in the US. Those protesters are being arrested for raising their voice against Israel. Is this your so-called freedom of speech upon which you constantly give lectures to the world?

Israel is literally slaughtering and burning innocent Palestinian children alive. Don't you feel the pain of Palestinian mothers of seeing the dead bodies of there innocent children?What's their fault? What does your international law say about all these atrocities, or should we call it Western law as it only safeguards the rights of people in the West? After all this hypocrisy, the Western nations have shown. They have absolutely no right to teach the world human rights, freedom of expression, and Democracy.
Israrli army is conducting Holocaust against Palestinians in the same way Nazi Germany did against Jews during the second world war. Nethanyahu is no different than Hitler. He is doing to Palestinians what Hitler did to Jews. It is ironic that those same Jews who suffered from the tragedy of Holocaust during the second war later on illegally occupied Palestinian lands and kicked them out of their homes during the Nakba in 1948. Now they want to repeat that again. They want to kill most of the Palestinians and kick the rest of them out of Palestine. They have conquered most of the Palestinian land in the last 76 years and now want to capture of what little bit remains of Palestine.
The Western media is constantly doing Propoganda in favour of Israel trying to blame everything on Hamas, labelling it as a terrorist organization. The reality is that Israel is a terrorist country, and Hamas is fighting it for the independence of their homeland. What Hamas is doing is completely justified in the same manner the Ukrainian resistance to the Russian invasion is justified. The Western governments are supporting Ukraine supplying them with aid and weapons to fight the Russian invasion whereas in the case of Palestine they are not only advocating Israel but they are supplying them with weapons for there genocide of the Palestinians. Many Western media outlets still think that Israel has avoided bloodshed in Gaza. If you want to see the best example of hypocrisy and victim blaming then you would see that in various western media platforms like CNN or BBC etc. They hold innocent Palestinian civilians responsible for the Israeli genocide. They did mass reporting when Russia attacked Ukraine but have been silent on the suffering of Palestinians.
Russian sports teams were banned from a number of sports events including Olympics 2024 due to there invasion of Ukraine. On the other hand Israel is allowed to participate in the Olympics and other sports events although they also invaded Palestine. The West boycotted Russian products after they invaded Ukraine whereas Israel is buthering innocent Palestinians and they have done nothing. This shows there double standards.

There are also some people who say that Israel is only bombing Gaza strip because of Hamas, which is as I have stated above is unjustified because Hamas is only resisting against the Israeli occupation of Gaza. Well, I want to tell them that Israel's terrorism and illegal occupation are not only limited to Gaza strip. Israel is also illegally occupying and settling Jews in the West Bank as well. Israel, at times, also stops Palestinians from praying at the Al-Aqsa Mosque. How is this justified? Since 7th October, Israel has killed approximately 500 Palestinians in the Occopied West Bank. Last week, the Israeli terrorist army raided the Jenin camp and killed 12 people, including children. The image below shows how the number of illegal settlements in the West Bank has increased over the years.
Since October 7th, it has become a norm for the Israeli army and illegal Israeli settlers to raid parts of the West Bank. A UN report last year stated that Israel is constantly monitoring the West Bank and controlling every part of it. Its like a lockdown imposed on them.
On the morning of 30th of May, the Israeli army raided on the Ramallah vegetable market and destroyed over 100 stalls and dozens of shops owned by Palestinians. They say that they did this in response to a car ramming attack that resulted in the death of 2 Israeli soldiers. The Western media, as usual, put the blame on Hamas for this attack. Well, these are just 2 Israeli soldiers killed. What about more than 35,000 Palestinian civilians killed since October 7th? What about thousands of Palestinians displaced since that time? What about those Hundreds of Thousands of Palestinians brually killed by the Israeli army since 1948? What about the illegal occupation of Palestinian land that happened and has been happening since 1948? The Hypocritic Western media and Western Politicians would never tell you this. Instead, they will just do victim blaming on innocent Palestinians.
There are also some people who argue that there should be a Two State solution in Palestine, which is again injustice to the Palestinians. How could a state that was formed by capturing and displacing the local people be legallized by this? It's the same way as if Russia captures some parts of Ukraine and then after that proposes a Two State solution dividing the land between Russia and Ukraine. Now, would this be justified?

If just for a moment you put yourself in the place of Palestinians you would see that you have got only 2 options either to die or to live in that miserable conditions where there is no food, shelter, clean drinking water or electricity not to mention the fact that at times Israeli army also stops aid from reaching the Palestinians and also bombs the refugee camps. There have also been reports of Israeli citizens looting and burning aid heading towards Gaza. There are no adequate health facilities available. You are constantly being bombed, and there is no shelter. You are constantly being monitored. You see dead bodies of people split into bits and pieces due to the bombings. You see dead bodies of innocent children in very miserable conditions (there body parts cut into bits and pieces), and what if one of them was your own son? Just think of this horror scene and think What would you do in this situation? You would realize that humanity has failed you. You would realize that humanity has betrayed you. Just try to imagine this scene what Palestinians always and at each and every single moment go through. Then you would do the same what Hamas is doing. You would also fight for your life for independence, and even if you die while doing this, at least your future generations should not suffer that constant trauma that you had to suffer. It's not the Palestinians who are dying, but in reality, it is humanty, which is breathing its last breath in Palestine.
I would conclude my blog with an image of a former US ambassador to the UN Nikki Haley, who during one of her visit to Israel can be seen writing 'Finish them' on a bomb bound for Gaza This is not just Nikki Haley, but it is the depiction of not all but most US and Western politicians who advocate for freedom of speech, human rights, and Democracy. This is their true face, and they have got absolutely no right to advocate and lecture the world on these morals.
