The USA abstained from the first ceasefire resolution in Gaza, adopted by the Security Council since the start of the war, which angered Netanyahu.
\nHe wanted Washington to exercise its veto. Subsequently, as a retaliatory measure, he cancelled his delegation\u2019s trip to Washington.
\nAt the same time, the ceasefire never held as Israel continued its attacks on the remaining strip of Gaza while targeting Rafah.
\nThe decision of the Security Council remained on paper. Just as it did in 1974 in Cyprus when during ceasefire periods the Turkish occupying army advanced.
\nDecisions, as is known, are meant to be implemented by the weak! The Americans, who have angered Netanyahu, still claim, in the context of appeasement, that the US government has \u201cno reason to believe that Israel has committed acts of genocide in Gaza.\u201d
\nA statement made to \u201ccondemn\u201d the report of the UN special rapporteur, according to which there are \u201creasonable grounds\u201d to believe that Israel committed many \u201cacts of genocide\u201d against Palestinians in Gaza, also referring to \u201cethnic cleansing.\u201d
\nIf it were another case, concerning another country, sanctions would obviously already be imposed. Israel is not facing sanctions. If Netanyahu were from another country, he would be accused of war crimes.
\nNader Jerada, 33 years old, speaking to a Palestinian-Israeli website, www.972mag.com, stated, \u201cWe are exhausted from hunger. I want to scream that we have no food. I have six children: six mouths to feed. Yesterday, my daughter cried from hunger\u2026 Before the war, I helped everyone and fed everyone, but look at us now: we eat raw wheat and barley, even animal feed which, like everything else, is running out in the market\u2026\u201d
\nAnother person, Said Sweirki, mentioned, \u201cWe have become like animals. Our lives have no meaning, and nobody cares about us. We scream, starve, and die alone. Does the world know we eat animal feed? We live without life\u2019s basic necessities: without electricity, water, fuel. We gather firewood for hours from the streets and destroyed houses. We have returned to the Stone Age.\u201d
\nAnother, Bashir, stood day and night to get flour but had no luck. His two sons were killed during Israeli airstrikes, leaving him to care for his grandchildren. In a multitude of desperate and starving people, the chances of getting a handful of flour are slim.
\nThe situation in Gaza, based on descriptions from the United Nations, volunteer doctors in the area, is tragic.
\nFamine is mentioned. Humanitarian aid, apart from that by sea from Cyprus, which recently started, is dropped from the air, with parachutes, showing the way Israel manages the issue.
\nThe head of European diplomacy, Josep Borrell, during his speech at the UN Security Council in mid-March, went so far as to denounce the use of hunger by Israel as a \u201cwar weapon\u201d in the Gaza Strip.
\nNetanyahu, through war, tries to save his skin and his presence in politics.
\nHe drags his country into an ongoing war. He cannot exterminate, or eradicate the Palestinians. Even if he kills all the inhabitants of Gaza, and levels the West Bank, those Palestinians who remain, either within Palestine or outside, will never rest until liberation. Obviously, he knows this.
\nIt is clear that international hypocrisy, the crocodile tears, have no counterpart if preventive measures are not taken.
\nThe way the war in Gaza, the genocide, and the ethnic cleansing, is treated, allows the occupying power to continue. And this is a crime.starvation. ceasefire resolution, Security Council, hunger<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
The USA abstained from the first ceasefire resolution in Gaza, angering Netanyahu who wanted Washington to exercise its veto. As a retaliatory measure, Netanyahu cancelled his delegation\u2019s trip to Washington. The ceasefire did not hold as Israel continued its attacks on Gaza. The Security Council’s decision remained on paper, similar to the situation in Cyprus in 1974. The US government claimed there was no reason to believe Israel committed acts of genocide in Gaza. The situation in Gaza is dire, with people facing hunger and desperation. The head of European diplomacy denounced Israel’s use of hunger as a “war weapon” in Gaza. Netanyahu’s actions are seen as trying to save his political career, but the international community’s response allows the occupying power to continue its actions, which is considered a crime.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":5,"featured_media":5679,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"Default","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[862,122,3258,652,1234,1902,1423,3659,1240,2460,21,3635,3,3531,398,946,553,3355,1978,2658,145,895,607,415,1235,399,2496,187,3234,299,493,634,345,462,301,1004,837,1538,720,331,3260,827,3660,1827,414,3199,1759,380,173,293,3519,962,1859,18],"class_list":["post-5678","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-other","tag-age","tag-aid","tag-air","tag-army","tag-attacks","tag-bank","tag-ceasefire","tag-ceasefire-resolution","tag-clear","tag-community","tag-crime","tag-crimes","tag-cyprus","tag-delegation","tag-diplomacy","tag-doctors","tag-electricity","tag-exercise","tag-famine","tag-fuel","tag-gaza","tag-gaza-strip","tag-genocide","tag-government","tag-humanitarian","tag-humanitarian-aid","tag-hunger","tag-international","tag-international-community","tag-israel","tag-netanyahu","tag-opinion","tag-palestine","tag-palestinians","tag-politics","tag-power","tag-rafah","tag-resolution","tag-rest","tag-sanctions","tag-sea","tag-security","tag-security-council","tag-statement","tag-un","tag-un-security-council","tag-united-nations","tag-us","tag-usa","tag-war","tag-washington","tag-water","tag-west-bank","tag-world"],"acf":{"keyphrase":"","keywords":"","sourceimg":"","country-category":""},"yoast_head":"\n
