The response of Israel to the Hamas attack of October 2023 has degenerated into a genocide that was never foreseen. It is true that, since the creation of Israel by UN resolution In 1947, (as a result of the shock caused by the Nazi Holocaust), the Middle East has never really been pacified. At least four wars have taken place between the State of Israel and its neighboring countries. All this without taking into account the clashes between the Israelis and the organizations integrated into the PLO, which sometimes led to the invasion of Lebanon, or the continued repression of the Palestinian population in the territories occupied by Israel, which gave rise to the 1st and 2nd Palestinian Intifada severely repressed by Israeli authorities.
Over time and after the Oslo and Camp David agreements, a Palestinian National Authority which was never able to carry out its functions due to the supervision, control and continued interventionism of the military forces of the State of Israel and its support for the progressive construction of settlements of Zionist settlers within the Palestinian territories.
Israel’s relationship with the Palestinians, including those with Israeli citizenship, has always been based on a position of strength, of supremacy derived from its military potential.
Little by little the secular Palestinian resistance It suffered a strong deterioration in favor of the Islamist forces of Hamas and the Islamic Jihad, whose objective was posed more as the elimination of the State of Israel than the achievement of the Palestinian State.
Israel’s relationship with the Palestinians, including those with Israeli citizenship, has always been based on a position of strength, of supremacy derived from its military potential. The repression against Palestinian resistance has always involved the use of force not only against the combatants but also against the entire Palestinian population. Summary imprisonments, prisoners without trial, house demolitions, armed roadblocks to enter Israel and to circulate through the territories theoretically under the control of the ANP, have been permanent.
The situation in Palestine can be analyzed as a situation of a population subjected to a “apartheid” by the Zionist authorities who daily abuse their armed supremacy.
But if this entire history of submission were not enough, in the 21st century it has increased until reaching its climax with the military response of the State of Israel to the attacks of October 2023 with the murder of more than 1,200 Israeli citizens at the hands of of Hamas.
Israel’s response has been one of incredible brutality. Israel has punished with the greatest cruelty the entire Palestinian civilian population of Gaza. More than 42,000 dead, mostly women, the elderly and children, nearly 100,000 injured, and an unidentified number of missing people who may exceed another 100,000.
Israeli policy has been aimed at eliminating not only Hamas militants but especially Palestinian children to avoid a resurgence of the enemy in the future.
The total destruction of Gaza, without respecting anything, neither hospitals, medical centers nor UNRWA schools. Conscious murders of journalists and medical personnel. Blocking all entry of food, water, medicine or fuel into the Gaza Strip. That is, a true Genocide and an attack on all International Laws, both war and humanitarian.
We can say that Israel is committing a crime against humanity similar to and in line with what Nazism committed against the Jewish people during the 20th century.
But Israel could not do what it is doing if it were not with the consent of powerful allies who finance it, not only economically but militarily. First of all, if I didn’t have the endorsement and sponsorshipat all levels of the United States. Without their explicit support and their supply not only of weapons but of military intelligence, and of subsidiary force, it is difficult for Israel to dare to go to the extremes it has reached in its massacre of Palestinians, not only in the Gaza Strip but in The West Bank where there have been more than 1,000 Palestinian deaths at the hands of settlers or Israeli soldiers, or now in the invasion of Lebanon and probably the retaliation against Iran. And every day it is more evident from the public comments of Israel’s political leaders that they are willing to occupy the entire West Bank and, if possible, expel the Palestinian population from their land.
The State of Israel has placed itself on its own merits in the lowest rung of criminal States, right at the level of Nazi Germany.
But it is not only the support of the United States, also the countries of the so-called democratic West, starting with the European Union, with honorable exceptions, have opted to give all their explicit support and in many cases with supply of weapons to the Israeli State in their genocidal practice. By the way, the same European Union that applies a double standard be it the case of Russia’s war against Ukraine, or in the face of the Israeli massacre of the Palestinian civilian population.
There is no doubt that this dual action by the West is viewed negatively by the countries of the Global South and there is no doubt that it will have repercussions on the planet’s international relations.
The genocide of the State of Israel, with its intentional killing of Palestinian minors, which we believe to be intentional, will have very serious future consequences. Israeli policy has been aimed at eliminating not only Hamas militants but especially Palestinian children to avoid a resurgence of the enemy in the future. But the opposite will happen. This Genocide will remain in the memory of future Palestinian generations and will most likely be accompanied by a deep hatred towards the State of Israel and its inhabitants.. And it will possibly fuel the most radical positions and those in favor of revenge for these events that until recently seemed unimaginable to us in these times.
We believe that the State of Israel has placed itself on its own merits in the lowest rung of criminal States, right at the level of Nazi Germany and beyond “apartheid” South Africa.
