Israeli aggression and American diplomacy
No one disagrees that the systematic war that Israel is waging against the Palestinian people in the Gaza Strip for the seventy-sixth day in a row has a large number of goals related to erasing the history of the people, trying to displace them, changing the rules and regulations of life in the Gaza Strip, and causing human suffering for many years in light of the catastrophic effects of destruction and killing, displacement, arrest, and torture.
The reasons that Israel raises, through its political or military leaders, for the aggression against the Gaza Strip are no longer convincing to world public opinion, due to its army’s targeting of civilians and defenseless civilians by bombing and destroying most of the Strip’s vital facilities, including hospitals, refugee shelters, schools, mosques, and churches, and causing the death of thousands of children, women, and the elderly, which is heading towards convincing the entire world that this war, which aims to uproot the citizens of Gaza from their homes and try to separate them from their history and civilization, is being led by Israel in the field and supported by the United States in the corridors of global diplomacy, where it succeeded twice in stopping resolutions condemning this aggression against our people, and Last night, as usual, it negatively affected a resolution that could have been voted on by the UN Security Council and submitted by the United Arab Emirates, the text of which is aimed mainly at easing Israel's control over all humanitarian aid delivered to 2.3 million people in Gaza
The resolution was postponed again at the request of the United States, as a UN diplomat familiar with the negotiations said, “The negotiations are continuing and need more time because the hasty vote does not seem to end well,” referring to the possibility of the United States using its veto power over the draft resolution.
Washington traditionally protects its ally Israel from any action taken by the United Nations and thus provides the necessary cover for Israel to continue its aggression.
In light of the urgent need of the citizens of the Gaza Strip for humanitarian aid, the United States insists on delaying a decision of a purely humanitarian nature, even though it constantly calls through international platforms and forums to avoid killing civilians. In fact, delaying such a decision is considered a sentence of slow death by the United States and Israel against the people of Gaza, whose steadfastness and pride cannot be described .
