Gaza

Permanent Ceasefire Critical

Let there be no more politics on human life.

Any war is brutal, barbaric and downright criminal.

The war in Gaza, Ukraine and anywhere for political, strategic and economic interests are merciless and indiscriminate exercising disproportionate military aggression showing little or no concern for civilians burdened with generational suffering.

The political and military might exerted over reason and rationality strip human status in dehumanizing children and their families forcibly sentenced to victimhood in carpet bombing and continuous air strikes lasting nearly two months now.

Gaza permanent ceasefire is not an option but a necessity heeding emergency situation and massive humanitarian meltdown brought upon the innocent children, women and Palestinians en masse.

The six days extended into seventh day truce enabling exchange of Israeli hostages and Palestinian children i.e. minors in their teens and even younger long held in Israel’s administrative detention center lasting over a decade in many detainees case besides facilitating humanitarian assistance in the decimated Gaza seemingly brought necessary respite to victims all around.

The present truce subjected to intense diplomatic negotiations for extension prolonged into permanent ceasefire is critical to help Gazans heal and recover from the immense pain and suffering through deaths and devastation inflicted via United States funded and provided financial aid $14.5 billion and massive military artillery used by Israel since Oct 7, 2023 until date.

The flow of humanitarian provisions reaching the Palestinian population sheltered in make-shift tents due to forced displacement / Nakba and relentless shelling of their homes nearing two months of Israeli military aggression backed by the United States is the priority to save lives from starvation, dehydration and combative environment.

The diplomatic efforts to continue truce is appreciative and reflect the gravity of the Gaza war in every front.

The loss of lives with children casualties in particular alongside women, youth, elderly – the entire innocent civilians targeted and slaughtered in the air strikes and heavy bombing for nearly two months now.

The Gaza war has also flared into the Red Sea with skirmishes originating from the Houthis in Yemen reminiscing own experience from endless war in their domain and anxious over Palestinians catastrophic situation exacerbated following United States backed Israel’s military bombardment in Gaza.

Without a shadow of doubt, the United States freeze on American taxpayer fund in $$$ billions along with suspension of offensive arsenal to Israel would end this Gaza war instantaneously considering the onslaught started with United States, western i.e. EU and some non-western coalition from day one until now.

The anti-war pro-saving lives citizens need to persistently convey the message to the United States administration and Congress on both sides of the aisle not to expend American taxpayer $$$ on graveyard mission in Gaza by Israel slaying babies and infants reducing hospitals to rubbles and hitting ambulances denying urgent humanitarian requirements from reaching the desperate dying civilians in Gaza.

The sane responsible taxpayer would decline their tax money being used for genocide taking place in Gaza with several thousands civilians killed in the collective punishment citing the so-called self-defense.

The taxpayer funded politics heeding the former as the electorate as well are incumbent to respect life of the Palestinians, their inalienable right to exist in their homeland Gaza and the rest of Palestine and other members sharing the dilemma.

The United States and ally Israel implementing long lasting ceasefire is extremely important taking all matter into account.

Ceasefire continuation in Gaza is the priority to prevent the horrific violence claiming nearly 16,000 civilians of whom 5000 children martyred thus far.

The United States and global citizens relentless campaign to end Gaza war meanwhile maintaining humanitarian supply to restore and rebuild Palestinian lives are paramount ending the siege and warfare against Gaza.

Relevantly, the release of all Palestinian detainees in Israel’s prison held without due process over decades in return for remaining Israeli hostages accompanied by indefinite cessation of warfare by Israel is the viable resolution for further peace and progress in the crisis.

Peace to Palestine.

Free Palestine.
