The Western nations, including the US, often cite the killing of 1200 Jewish people in Hamas’ October 7 attack to justify Israel’s war on Gaza, which has so far claimed the lives of around 35,000 Palestinians.
The Biden administration has also passed a bill to provide Israel with $14 billion, extending its support for the war against Hamas, a political faction in Palestine governing Gaza Strip since 2007.
Once committed to the extinction of Jews people, Europe and America are now very protective of Israelis’ security.
They are apparently justifying the killings of Palestinians only to eradicate Hamas, who they think is a threat to the existence of Jews people.
Supported by its western allies, Israel is carrying out devastation in Gaza, in line with its plan to take control over Palestine.
It was the protesting students of American universities who compelled the US to pursue a ceasefire deal. However, this move has put both President Joe Biden and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu in the crosshairs, given the upcoming US presidential election in November and the pressure within Israel’s war cabinet, which threatens to strip Netanyahu of the premiership in the event of any deal ending the war.
Meanwhile, devastated by the Israeli offensive, Hamas, which triggered the war through its October 7 attack, has agreed to a ceasefire plan brokered by Qatar and Egypt. However, the US, a key player in brokering the ceasefire deal, has said it is reviewing the plan agreed upon by Hamas, following Israel’s refusal to accept it, citing 'softened conditions'.
While the mediators are struggling to reach a deal in Qatar for days, Israel pressed ahead with its Rafah offensive despite warnings from international agencies including the UN that it would cause a humanitarian catastrophe given the city sheltering more than one million displaced Palestinians.
Meanwhile, the US, shaken by the students' protests, spurred the Western media into a frenzy, creating drama surrounding the shipment of weapons to Israel. The US paused the latest shipment cautioning Israel against any large-scale operation in Rafah.
It would be unjust not to mention that the US, the self-proclaimed protector of global human rights, has set aside $10 billion out of its $95 billion aid package, intended for Ukraine and Israel, for humanitarian aid for civilians in conflict zones around the world, including Palestinians in Gaza.
The fraternal Muslim countries have not lagged behind in staging drama surrounding the war, repeatedly calling for an end to the conflict while refraining from taking any concrete action, as if world leaders care about anything but power.
Jews people who were forced to emigrate to Arab regions in the face of state sponsored persecution, mass killings in the 19th and 20th centuries' Europe and America, established Israel following the end of the Second World War. But their struggle for existence is far from over, with the only good news being that the current enemy they are fighting against is much weaker than the previous ones.
