There are two criminal organizations involved in Oct 7th, The Militant arm of Hamas and the current Israeli Government. No resolution is possible until both are removed

In Palestine, however, the era of collective punishment endures. For decades, Israel has demolished the homes of Palestinians accused of terrorism, even before any judicial conviction, leaving their families homeless for the sole purpose of vengeance, humiliation and intimidation. This also affects residents of East Jerusalem, who can lose their residency rights because of a relative’s actions. Like many states at war, the IDF also targets neighborhoods, shelling whole buildings to reach a suspect and, since the attacks of 7 October, turning its fire on an entire city: every resident of the Gaza Strip is having to pay for Hamas’s massacres.

Defunding UNRWA Is Collective Punishment

The US and Israel crowned Hamas as a “terrorist” organization. In 2006 it wasn’t Hamas the military brigade that democratically won the right to govern Gaza. It was an election verified by Jimmy Carter to be fair and legitimate. Hands tied unable to do anything because that election was at the suggestion of America and agreed to by Israel they did a TRUMP. They called foul and labeled all of Hamas and Gazans terrorists. Since then Israel has been breaking the peace or forcing the agreed-on peace to be broken.

The Russians haven’t killed the number of civilians in the Ukraine as Israel has Gaza in the shortest period. There is no moral justification for the criminal and genocidal actions the world is witnessing. Israel is making a mockery of America and its allies in supporting them.

Reeling from the ICJ’s genocide ruling, Israel attacked the credibility of UNRWA, the UN agency that provides food and health care to Palestinian refugees. Now Joe Biden and other Western leaders are cutting funding for the vital humanitarian aid agency.
