Who will stop the war of extermination in Gaza?


Baha Rahal

The war of extermination continues in Gaza with all its brutality and brutality. The bombing and massacres do not stop, and the massacres that have wiped out hundreds of families do not stop. Not a single person remains who carries the family name, its memories, rituals, and inherits its characteristics and features, and the names of those who died and were killed by the fires of the bombing and the bombs of death. Those families have no trace left, and some of them have no graves to preserve their deaths. Rather, they were buried in mass graves with others, and some are still missing under the rubble.

Families were wiped out and erased from the civil registry, while others had some members who survived but were injured, so their limbs were amputated and they became orphans and disabled, helpless and without support in a time of genocide and crushing that spared no child, old man, or elderly person.

Heartbreaking scenes, images broadcast by satellite channels and newspapers of those whose arms were amputated, as if to say no more hugs, and others of those whose feet were amputated when they were only months old. What fates await these desperate children? What future can be merciful to those who found themselves born under the yoke of genocide? What life can they expect with incomplete bodies and lost hopes?

These are the months of the ongoing, brutal and bloody war, and the siege is making the days heavier for the people of Gaza, where there is no water, no medicine, no food, and no life in the midst of the hell of death and war. The people cry out to their consciences and appeal to the world to intervene, but no one hears the call of those in distress. Everyone stands in a corner of neutrality. How ugly this silence and this neutrality are. The worst thing that the people of Gaza are experiencing is this international abandonment of them. How ugly this silent world is and how disgusting this abandonment is.

The most famous war of extermination has done its work. After it wiped out all forms of life, there was no university, no mosque, no hospital, no health center, no school, and no theater. It shattered hopes and aspirations, exposed the falsehood and lies of international law, and revealed the truth about international institutions, the claim of human rights, and other covenants that previously constituted protection and a guarantee for humanity, before the war in Gaza came, and before the world adopted this cowardly neutrality that accepted silence and did not take any actual action to prevent the hell of extermination and stop the war.

Amid the world's silence and the inaction of international and UN institutions, Gaza remains a witness to the betrayal of values and morals, the betrayal of international law, and the betrayal of earthly and heavenly laws. It waits for the human conscience to awaken from its long slumber, to speak a word of truth that will stop the bleeding, and grant its people their right to existence and peace of mind, and their right to escape the scourge of genocide that has turned their lives into a hell that lurks in every corner.
