The British historian, William Dalrymple, stated that what is happening in Palestine, especially in Gaza, is an unprecedented humanitarian disaster. He strongly criticized the Western stance, particularly that of Britain and the United States regarding the Israeli occupation's war on the besieged enclave.
In a press interview, Dalrymple criticized the unconditional support provided by the United States and Western countries to the Israeli occupation, pointing out that this support causes suffering for the residents of Gaza and ignores international law.
The British historian noted that history will judge this complicity harshly, considering that the continuation of occupation and displacement reminds one of the most horrific chapters of colonialism.
Dalrymple also added that British politicians bear responsibility for the destruction of Palestinian lives, as no one knows anything about Palestine in this country, and no one is told that the Balfour Declaration was the beginning of the tragedy.
In a previous interview, Dalrymple said that "the British education system deceived me about Palestine," harshly criticizing the education system in the country, as he believes it distorted the history of Palestine, portraying it as a "barren desert" before 1948.
During his talk on the program "Real Talk," Dalrymple shared his views on Britain's historical responsibility towards Palestine, and he strongly criticized the British government's ongoing cooperation with the Israeli occupation, including arms supplies.
Dalrymple provided a comprehensive view of what he witnessed in the West Bank while writing his book "From the Holy Mountain," where he spoke about settler violence and a "coordinated campaign to Judaize Jerusalem," explaining why he sees the current crisis in Gaza as "one of the most horrific human rights atrocities of our time."
At the same time, the Israeli occupation continues its brutal bombardment of the Gaza Strip throughout the night, while intending to displace the residents of Gaza towards the southern areas, in preparation for a wide ground assault that will end with the complete occupation of the city.
In recent hours, many Palestinians were martyred and injured in an Israeli raid targeting the Baptist hospital in Gaza City, while 70 people were martyred and 385 others were injured by the occupation's fire in Gaza in the last 24 hours.
11 deaths were recorded due to starvation and malnutrition, raising the toll of starvation victims to 251 martyrs, including 108 children, according to the latest toll announced by the Ministry of Health in the enclave on Saturday.
History will judge this complicity harshly, for the continuation of occupation reminds one of the most horrific chapters of colonialism.
