Israel's Claws and the West's Guns on Palestinian Mothers

The American magazine Foreign Policy discussed the US’s double standards on human rights and how it legitimizes the Zionists’ brutal crimes in the Gaza Strip, emphasizing that the Gaza War has destroyed the West’s claims to humanity.

Foreign Policy’s article on the collapse of Western democracy begins with these words: “When we hear the screams of a mother watching her daughter burn in a school bombed by the Israeli army, we realize that there is no guarantee that the brutal and inhumane scenes we have witnessed in recent months will not happen again, and that international law cannot prevent them.”

"The genocide that Israel has been carrying out against the people of Gaza for more than 15 months with the weapons and financial support of the West has dragged more than 2 million people into the biggest humanitarian crisis in modern history."

The article emphasizes that Israeli authorities claim to have the right to defend themselves against Hamas, but in reality they want to make the Gaza Strip uninhabitable and either kill Palestinians or force them to flee.

While reactions continue to former US President Donald Trump's plan to forcibly migrate the people of Gaza to other countries, Spanish Prime Minister Pedro Sánchez opposed the plan and said: "Madrid will never allow such a thing."

The US President recently discussed a plan to forcibly remove Palestinians from Gaza and place the area under American control during a meeting with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. This statement was met with a strong reaction by human rights groups, who described it as "ethnic cleansing" and a "clear violation of the Geneva Convention".

On the other hand, the people of England protested Trump's plan to forcibly displace Palestinians from Gaza by organizing a large-scale march yesterday (Saturday). During this march, which took place from the British Prime Minister's Office to the US Embassy, ​​messages of support for the Palestinian resistance were given.

While the demonstrators chanted slogans such as "Gaza is not for sale" and "Palestine will remain and resist", they also carried banners reading "Freedom for Palestine", "End the Israeli occupation" and "Stop arms shipments to Israel", condemning the brutality of the Zionist regime and the interventionist policies of the US.
