Apartheid Israel's Brutal Assault on Gaza: Facts and Consequences

Strategic Insights

— 2 min read

The Israeli Defense Forces, or as some call them, the "Israel Genocide Forces", have been unleashing a brutal assault on the Palestinian people in Gaza. The IDF has bombed refugee camps, bakeries, schools, universities, places of worship, medical facilities, and homes, targeting civilians and leaving a trail of destruction and death. The assault is based on the colonial philosophy of "a land without a people for a people without a land" and the principles of Jewish supremacy. Benjamin Netanyahu, who is wanted by the International Criminal Court for alleged war crimes, remains in power, making a permanent ceasefire in Gaza unattainable.
