Israel has pursued a genocide in Gaza and that is evident from the fact it has leveled almost all of Gaza. Gaza is uninhabitable. Israel indiscriminately targeted the civilian population of Gaza in a retaliatory rage that was totally disproportional to the harm that they suffered.
Israel’s rage was uncontrolled and unreasonable. Many of the targets were innocent citizens who they targeted with missiles and tank fire. Israel murdered civilians. Israel murdered women and children who had no links to Hamas. The IDF were cold and uncaring. Whole families were wiped out without a thought. The death toll is said to be around 72,500 Palestinian deaths as compared to Israeli deaths of around 2500.
The deaths of Palestinians in this conflict is so disproportionate to the deaths on the Israeli side. Israel used a level of force that the Gazan’s could not match. Buildings were targeted by missiles and tanks and people were killed indiscriminately. They were murdered. Just because it was done by a military force or through high tech weaponry doesn’t diminish the fact that 72,500 people were murdered. Many were children, many were women. Israel had many opportunities to stop the killings but they carried on and on without mind to the fact they were committing genocide. The World should not carry on regardless of the Palestinians who lost their lives, the children who lost their parents and the parents who lost their children at the hands of the Israeli’s.
So far the World has failed to raise a significant declaration of sanctions against Israel
Why has the World’s nations failed to respond to what Israel has done in Gaza. It’s failure to respond to Israel’s actions or do anything that harms Israel directly is almost an endorsement of a genocidal campaign. Not even Arab nations have done anything of significance by way of a declaration of support for Gaza. Failure to put sanctions on Israel in particular to withhold the export of arms to Israel is not basically ignore and collude with the Israeli’s. Sanctions should be put on Israel and Netanyahu needs to be labeled as a war criminal.
Fear of reprisals and tariffs from Donald trump is the reason that world nations fear of speaking ill of Israel
The reason that the World’s nations have not made a response is directly linked to the fact that they do not wish to offend the Americans and in particular Donald Trump. They are afraid of him and they are worried that trade embargoes and tariffs will be the result of any dissent or speaking ill of Israel. Yes that is more than likely however someone has to speak out for Gaza and call out Israel’s atrocities otherwise they will be seen to be colluding with Natanyahu and the Israeli’s. The world should not sweep this matter under the carpet: out of sight and mind. Israel must be held accountable and forced to look at itself in the mirror and confront what it has become. It’s no good just to focus on Israel’s side of the argument or to be afraid of criticizing Israel for fear of being called anti-Semitic. This really has no place in the argument. Israel has done wrong and must be held accountable for killing, no murdering, 72,000 people. Actions of the IDF and of Israel’s leaders must be examined under the charge of genocide.
Antisemitism is not a defense to deflect criticism by saying that it is anti-Semitic. Antisemitism is not a defense for the crimes of Israel and the IDF. They still need to be held accountable for their crimes and for the most part we are still awaiting a proper response from World Leaders including our own. We are still awaiting a recognition and awareness from Israel of the extent of their crimes against Gaza. It’s not anti-Semitic to believe that Israel’s actions were disproportionate and probably genocidal. A whole nation cannot be excused simply because they are of Jewish faith. There still has to be accountability for a act of genocide. The fact that around 72,500 Palestinian people were murdered by the Israelis. Around 27% of this figure were children and circa 80% of the total figure are estimated to have been civilians.
