Unprecedented Israeli rampage

The rampage of Israel and the actions of its government, ministers and army have reached an unbearable level, in all directions. Is this the healthy life that has been imposed on the peoples and countries on whose borders this rogue state was established, which is based on a policy of flexing muscles by extremists who do not know the meaning of humanity?


No and a thousand times no, our Palestinian people and our neighboring Arab peoples have the right to live with dignity and pride, not to remain oppressed by the actions of this state run by war criminal Benjamin Netanyahu and his reckless Defense Minister Yisrael Katz, who raised the tone and pace of their statements yesterday, and in a low-level language of defiance, without anyone moving a finger to deter Israel and return it to its reality as an occupying state with no rights, and to sever the world’s relations with it, instead of rushing to peace treaties and normalization relations based on American and Israeli blackmail, without achieving any gains or goals.


Netanyahu claims that Israel is fighting to secure its future against monsters that have risen, that it is waging a fierce war on seven fronts, that it is adhering to the goals of the war, which are returning the detainees and destroying Hamas’ capabilities, and that Israel will not abandon its duty to recover all the detainees. He thanks Trump, who has pumped in new and qualitative weapons that will have a major impact on the fighting, and threatens Iran with dismantling its infrastructure and not allowing it to obtain nuclear weapons, and Gaza with the end of Hamas’ rule and the resumption of aggression, and the West Bank with its occupation and the failure of the prisoner exchange deal, and Lebanon with the occupation army remaining in parts of its territory, and Syria with continuing to control Mount Hermon and not allowing the Druze community there to be threatened.


His Defense Minister Katz continues his threatening tone, saying that the agreement with Hamas aims only at the rapid release of the living and dead detainees, and that the fighting will not end except with two goals: the return of all the detainees and the end of Hamas’ rule in Gaza, and that Nasrallah’s funeral is a clear symbol of the defeat that Israel inflicted on Hezbollah, and that he will not allow the Palestinian population to return again to the camps that Israel occupied in the West Bank, in addition to the decision to expand the operation in the West Bank camps, and to send tanks to Jenin for the first time since 2002.


Yesterday, Israel repeatedly violated the ceasefire in Gaza, and continued to target civilians. Yesterday, it also refused to implement the agreement to release the sixth batch of prisoners. Yesterday, it violated Lebanese airspace and bombed a number of targets. It launched a number of its warplanes, which participated in the assassination of Hezbollah Secretary-General Hassan Nasrallah, to fly over the million-person funeral of the party’s spiritual father and deputy, Hashem Safieddine, in a provocative attempt.


Real estate investor Steve Witkoff, Trump's Middle East envoy, takes the stage to embrace the Israeli theory that Hamas will have no role in running the Strip at the end of the war, and to support Netanyahu in his quest to extend the first phase of the ceasefire agreement, to obtain the largest possible number of detainees.


The United States has allowed Israel to carry out actions that are outside international law, and that contradict charters, treaties and legislation. On top of that, it supports it with weapons and endorses its aggressive behavior in the region. The question is: For how long?


These dangerous statements by Netanyahu and Katz and the aggressive measures are only behind the plan of displacement, ethnic cleansing, liquidation of the refugee issue and the final elimination of the role of UNRWA.


What is required is a complete Arab and international move to boycott Israel, cancel all peace and normalization agreements with it, hold the United States accountable for its support and bias towards Israel, and curb the momentum of Trump and Netanyahu that is going in the opposite direction to humanity and human values.
