The article accuses Israel of potentially committing war crimes in its conflict with Hamas, focusing on a siege on Gaza, airstrikes harming civilians, and evacuation orders. It criticizes the U.S. for not condemning Israel’s actions and emphasizes the need for diplomatic solutions. The piece argues that Israel’s approach could backfire politically and suggests that there’s no military solution to the conflict. It calls for the U.S. to exercise influence to deter such actions, asserting it’s in the interests of both the U.S. and Israel to prevent further civilian casualties and maintain regional stability.

    What is Israel supposed to do? They got proof that Palestinians will never live with them in peace.

    ISRAEL’S OCCUPATION: 50 YEARS OF DISPOSSESSION.

    This Amnesty International article from 2017 discusses the challenges faced by Palestinians in the West Bank due to Israeli military closures and restrictions. These include checkpoints, roadblocks, and settler-only roads that make daily tasks like commuting to work or school difficult. The construction of a 700-km fence/wall, ostensibly for security reasons, has disrupted Palestinian communities, separated families, and hindered access to essential services and resources. The article also addresses issues of water allocation, highlighting the disparity between Israeli and Palestinian water consumption. The international community is called upon to recognize and rectify these injustices and restrictions in the occupied territories.
