The UN General Assembly has passed the Jordan resolution calling for an immediate ceasefire In Gaza. Despite the resolution, Israel has cut off all communications out of Gaza and destroyed the power sources and communication links leaving the entire region in a black out while heavy bombardment is ongoing. This blackout is being utilized as a way to commit utter devastation without the world watching and outrage. It is also to avoid accountability. Humanitarian organizations are pleading for information from their branches within Gaza and have no contact. Evil is unfolding before us, it is multiplying and spreading. It must be put to an end.
In the US the Senate unanimously passed a different type of resolution, one calling for the ban of protests from college groups found to be either supporting Hamas or antisemitic, stripping the students of their 1st amendment rights. The students are not supporting Hamas as the resolution alleges, they are speaking out on human rights violations which is dangerously categorized as antisemitic. That is unjust and untrue to classify condemning war crimes and genocide as antisemitic. The US government classifies anything antisemitic as actions or words of hatred toward Jewish people. This is not hatred toward Jewish people. Israel is committing the war crimes and none of these protestors are stating hatred toward Jews, they are stating what Israel is committing. Anything that a person extends beyond those statements is their own personal conjecture but hatred toward Jewish people never occurred at these protests. These are dangerous accusations and actions only meant to silence dissension. It is a way to demonize those who are speaking out and make the accusers seem worse than the perpetrators, and it twists antisemitism and instead of it being a means to define hatred against Jews, it is being used instead to silence people who do not hate Jews. The precedent that is set here is alarming and should frighten everyone. Take action instead of choosing silence. Their objective is to quiet the truth and the only way to do that is through tactics such as the Senate of the US actually eliminating the 1st amendment right of protestors.
What other rights are next? More will be taken with these politicians in elected office. They all must go. We have a huge undertaking ahead of us as the electorate, but it is one we all must take on in order to move forward from this place of absolute terror.
The US and Israel have been warned by the neighboring nations in the Middle East that they will not allow for the genocide to continue. It seems like the UN resolution had no substantive effect on the IDF’s plans. The resolution is non-binding. Only a Security Council resolution has legality and is binding to member nations, but the US has veto power and the UK will support the US positions within the Security Council. That means that the US and the UK will eliminate any path for a binding peace resolution to pass in the Security Council. A greater war will erupt as the death and annihilation continue if further resolutions are not passed and if the ICC remains silent. It looks like both the US and Israel want to be met militarily over Gaza with the level of destruction that is being waged despite the 120 countries that support a ceasefire and peace.
What both countries are not counting on is that the world is against them. They are trying to stand on moral high ground but their only response has been violence over the entirety of this siege. As adamant as they want, they are nothing more than evil and can never wash this taint from them or manipulate facts for their gain. There is no moral justification in this widespread horror against innocent people. Israel and the US have chosen their path of evil and will descend further down this path if they are not stopped.
Every voter with a moral conscience has a large job ahead- we must hold these elected officials accountable and vote them out. We do not stand for genocide. We stand for human rights.
Every country and world leader against genocide should cut trade completely and censure Israel and the US (and other complicit nations like the UK). Call for the International Criminal Court to investigate the war crimes against Palestine.
Palestine, I am sorry we are failing you. I pray for justice for all Palestinians. I pray for peace in Gaza. I pray for Palestine’s protection.
KEEP FIGHTING! JUSTICE FOR PALESTINE! DO NOT STAY SILENT! FIGHT FOR HUMANITY!
