Israel has declared a state of war after the Al-Aqsa brigades, the armed branch of Hamas, began a massive attack inside the territory of the Jewish state on Saturday. Some 1,100 deaths have already been reported in this conflict, the main martyrs of which are the Palestinian population of the band.
The West has been quick to condemn the actions of Hamas, a movement they consider terrorist. But we must ask ourselves about the origin of the situation that prevails between Israel and the Palestinian combatants.
When Israeli forces enter the Palestinian countryside of Jenin, shooting with live bullets and killing civilians, men, women and children, are they not committing an act of terror?
When an Israeli sniper premeditatedly murdered the journalist, Shireen Abu Akleh, who was covering the conflict, did Israel not commit an act of terror? Her murderer has not been prosecuted or convicted by Israeli justice.
When a 15-year-old Palestinian girl who was witnessing the invasion of Jenin from her home was shot and killed, did Israel not commit an act of terror?
Does Israel practice terrorism? Here is the question that deserves to be asked.
Palestinian fighters fight to create an independent state, which Israel does not accept, as it also rejects the Arab peace plan put forward by Saudi Arabia.
The Arab governments that have recognized Israel, what have they received in compensation? Have they managed to get the Jewish state to change its policy of siege and attacks against the Palestinian population? The answer is obvious: Israel has not changed its aggressiveness; has not stopped the implementation of settlements. The minister, Ben Gvir, affirms that if the Palestinians disappeared from the map, it would be a great joy for the Jews.
It is true that this war has been declared by the Hamas brigades to defend the honor of the Arabs. We must take this into account and not rush to present Israel as a sole victim. On Sunday, Israeli aircraft bombed 500 locations inside Gaza.
