The people of Gaza are still living inside the square of death..!

The Palestinian people in Gaza are still going through a dark phase in their national history, despite the existence of an American plan to end the war, a plan whose second phase was frozen due to the American-Israeli-Iranian war. They are still living through a phase of clear contradictions and soft synonyms, a phase of honor and patience, and a phase of dignity, pride, steadfastness, and resistance to injustice. It is a phase where people believe that everything has become mixed: honor with shame, collaboration with patriotism, and thievery with honesty. However, our people are skilled at classifying people and sifting the bad from the good, the honorable from the traitor, the merchant who exploits people's needs from the merchant who fulfills people's needs. They know that each group adheres to its characteristics: whoever has no patriotism is a child of shame, and whoever dies for the homeland is patient and defends his honor and the honor of the homeland. Whoever starves and is patient preserves their dignity and keeps their head held high with pride, ultimately earning the title of Palestinian. Most of the people of Gaza today live in camps that are nothing more than a horrific square of death, multiplying suffering and perpetuating tragedy. Death there is either from hunger, oppression, or killing. Therefore, Gaza today is a body being torn apart in various ways. Its people die either by burning from incendiary bombs dropped by the planes of the Zionist occupation over the heads of children, charring their bodies, or they die by being shot by "quadcopters" that pursue them whenever any of them try to cross the yellow line. Hunger may return to cause new deaths, but death by burning is still much more merciful than death by hunger or oppression. This people no longer owns anything that has not been looted, to the extent that some of its dignity has been violated by a group outside the homeland that does not belong to the people, nor to the land, nor to history, nor to religion, nor to the tribe, nor even to a pack of stray dogs. We do not know to whom these groups belong; they are certainly not from the Palestinian people. They are people created by money and lived for money...! They were created and raised in the corridors of betrayal and blood trade, belonging to the lust for control, illicit trade, accumulating wealth, and living a luxurious life at a time when people and children were dying of hunger. They believe that their towers are high and fortified, inaccessible to any human or non-human except those they wish to reach, but they are towers of straw that will not protect them from a scorching sun or an angry rain. O readers, forgive my anger that has reached the sky, for I can no longer bear to see children starving again, screaming for a piece of bread, and I cannot bear to see a mother going around the tents asking for a blanket for her children or a tent instead of the one that flew away with the storm. Forgive my anger out of love for my people and belonging to my history, beliefs, and the path of my homeland, which has never been this horrific, and I do not believe that a phase more horrific than the one we are living today will come. Yes, the lessons may be harsh, but in the end, they are successful despite the pain, and I do not believe that the war will pass without unmasking all those hiding behind false national principles, corrupt thrones, or usurious money. I do not believe that every meddler with the unity of the homeland, every meddler with the strength of the people, and every meddler with the safety of the people will not be exposed. I do not believe that the war will end and these people will remain, nor do I believe that the situation will remain as it is, and policies will not change, and those who followed will disavow those who were followed. I do not believe that hunger and death will continue forever, for a morning will come when the fire will cease, the planes will return to their hiding places, and the thieves, money changers, and merchants will flee to their dens, which their mothers and their money will soon cast out for the people to hold them accountable. Surely, the bill will be heavy, and these people have slandered without fear of a day when deeds will be reviewed, and the scales will be set to hold accountable everyone who transgressed the boundaries of ethics, religion, conscience, and humanity. No matter how horrific the war and how terrible the hunger, no matter how insane the occupation becomes, and no matter how many massacres and crimes it commits, and no matter how skilled it is at weaving intrigues and recruiting spies, agents, and militias, dawn will inevitably come, and the people will one day emerge from the square of death and know who were the hands that conspired to oppress them and starve their children, intentionally or unintentionally, and who were the faces that traded in the blood of their children and caused so much killing. The people will know how to swallow the bitterness of the past and how to gather their strength to be able to reshape the present and the future, and thus take a very strong stance against all those who tamper with the future of their children, their education, and their food. But at the same time, I fear that the dignitaries will wear the clothes of victors and parade in the streets cheering and beating drums, and some naive people will believe them, and I fear that merchants and money changers will come out boasting of their patriotism and their support for the people during the war and spread false stories about alleviating people's suffering and supporting the poor with charitable acts and the like, when they are nothing more than thieves. Perhaps this war is a revealing war that will expose every infiltrator and every one hiding behind any national or non-national, humanitarian or non-humanitarian curtain. It is also a great lesson to awaken the heedless from their negligence and make them realize that the liberation of homelands does not come all at once, nor does it come through an uncalculated adventure, nor does it come from those who are victorious for their parties or those who boast of their banners and ignore the banner of the homeland and tamper with its unity and those who boast of struggle, steadfastness, and steadfastness. The people's emergence and liberation from the square of death is not the end of the road, for I believe that death will stop, but suffering will remain and deprivation will continue because the aftermath of the scene is long and needs time for the consequences of the war to fade and the nation to recover, and the suffering of the people of Gaza to end. Yes, the war will end and a new war will begin, not between the people of Gaza, but a war for survival, and the revival of cities, neighborhoods, and streets. This takes us to the path of President Trump's plan, and the phase of the technocrat committee taking over the rule and the beginning of reconstruction, which will witness a path under conditions for the political scene in Gaza to change, and Hamas, the main cause of its suffering, will not remain. I believe that everyone agrees that the day after the war must be different from before it, especially since there is an agreement between the factions for Hamas to hand over power to an independent national committee that will manage the sector during a certain period determined by the sponsoring parties, and there is Arab, European, and American approval for that. Israel will not escape its actions and its destruction of the sector, for it will be responsible forever for what it did to Gaza, and this responsibility will not fade even if solutions to the conflict are found, and the international community must continue to prosecute the leaders of the occupation for committing genocide in the sector, so that they do not escape their actions and the world forgives them in exchange for stopping the war on Gaza, for crimes do not die by statute of limitations but remain preserved in the records of nations and in the minds of the victims whose homes were destroyed without fault and whose children were killed under the rubble of their homes and do not know where they were buried and who were deprived of food, drink, and shelter. There may be attempts to displace people voluntarily under the pretext of the impossibility of life in Gaza because life is non-existent in Gaza, as there are no schools, no hospitals, no universities, no homes, no bakeries, and no infrastructure of water, electricity, and sanitation, as if Palestinians need to build new cities, and this requires time that will not come with the push of a button or through an electronic application. Minds will not fail to find solutions to the housing problem in Gaza and remove the rubble and use it to expand the area of the sector by reclaiming seawater, and establish new cities there that can be converted in the future to establish tourist cities until the sector is fully rebuilt, and minds will not fail to find alternative places for people in Gaza until new cities are established and large homes are built to accommodate all those whose homes were destroyed by the war and have become homeless, and I believe that their percentage exceeds 99%, meaning that we are talking about the entire population of the Gaza Strip, which numbers more than 2.5 million people. The responsibility for providing all aid, money, equipment, and preparing early recovery plans for Gaza to be implemented immediately with the start of the second phase, and accelerating the steps of its implementation, is the responsibility of the mediators and guarantors, led by the United States of America and the entire world, including Israel, which is still implementing military plans to demolish the remaining civilian buildings despite President Trump's plan calling for an end to the war.
