42,409 Palestians killed in Israel's attack on Gaza Strip since October 2023.
Just a few figures could help us to understand why this genocide will not go to an end soon, unfortunately. The state of Palestine, which consists of the West Bank, East Jerusalem and Gaza Strip, was declared in 1988. Since then 146 countries have recognized Palestine as a sovereign state. Consequently, it's easy to see that many countries that haven't recognised yet Palestine as a state are in a subordinate position to the United States. And, as it is known, Washington's elite are sending weapons and missiles to Israel ... needless to mention that more Jews live in the US than in Israel and Jews represent more almost 10% of the population of New York state.
According to some NGOs, "The world cannot continue to stand by as Israel's government commits these atrocities". In addition to the "orrifying level of atrocity", since the beginning of October no food has been allowed in Northern Gaza area.
I took a photo of that war ship some months ago. Sorry if some blogger friends are not interested in the genocide taking place in that corner of the Middle East. I will try not to publish any more posts about this topic.
...this situation seems not to have any political will in search of a solution.
ReplyDeleteRight! Many world powers are complicit.
DeleteGiorgio, unfortunately, but I fear that this monstrous conflict will continue for a very long time to come...
ReplyDeleteWe live in a world where it's not people and their well-being that matters, but interests :(
True, dear friend! There are interests related to the military industrial complex. In addition, there is natural gas at 20 nautical miles off the coast of Gaza ... that's why Israel is interested extending its sovereignty over that Palestinian strip of land. Now Israel's policy-makers think Gaza Strip is a land without a people.
DeleteThat really is a sad stat Giorgio. A lot of people in one year. I know there have been several protests over here in Glasgow and Edinburgh about this. It is like they want total annihilation of the Palestine people. I really don't understand why people are ignoring this. I can only see there being more genocide in other countries.
ReplyDeleteSome humans do care, but sadly not enough. We might end up killing the human race at some point in the near future. I find it strange that we are all on this little planet in the middle of space trying to survive yet we cannot live in peace or harmony. And we have the down right audacity to call ourselves "civilised"!!! The crows and birds and creatures I post photos of are much more civilised than us humans!
Post what you want Giorgio, I am sorry to read that some people are unhappy with this reality you post about.
There are many interests related to that human tragedy, dear Ananka. You are right, as how can we have the right to call ourselves "civilised"? Completely agree on this, as we are all complicit.
DeleteThank you for sharing your interesting point of view!
It is a human tragedy. I can only cry when I see the pictures and hear how many people have already died.
ReplyDeleteWe have to talk about it, we can't be indifferent to it.
True, we have to talk about that human tragedy. Thanks for sharing your point of view!
DeleteThe war is always tragic that no one benefits. The warship sunset photo is somewhat beautiful though
ReplyDeleteThank you for the appreciation!
DeleteDear Giorgio! Thank you for posting about the Gaza Strip. Everything that is happening there is inhumane. Netanyahu is a real criminal. We all know what the Nazis did to the Jews during World War II. What is Israel doing now? Honest people all over the world currently have a negative attitude towards Israel.
ReplyDeleteWho gives Israel weapons? Everyone knows that it is the United States. The United States is a country that lives off war.
In the United States, Hurricane Milton caused great destruction to civilians. It seems to me that the American government is not going to help people who suffered from the hurricane, because the money goes to the war in Ukraine and Israel.
October 7 marked a year since the war between Israel and the residents of the Gaza Strip began. Israel is now at war with 5 countries.
You are right, dear Irina, as if the US were not to trigger wars and conflicts across the world, their economic system would shrink and unemployment would rise.
DeleteThank you for sharing such an interesting comment.
Dear Giorgio, Thank you so much for raising such important issues in your blog.
