Humanity in Gaza

Israel Lost the War and America Betrayed Humanity in Gaza

Mahboob A. Khawaja, PhD.

Global Mankind vs. Political Wickedness

Rationality requires objective reasoning and it is not coming for an impending cataclysm of the Israeli onslaught on Rafah and the United States – the complicit friend in making of the genocide betrayed its own histroy of civility, morality, responsible political governance, equality of human rights, freedom and justice and lot …lot more only future will unfold. Ferocious concepts of good and evil are being implied by the Israeli war agenda challenging the human consciousness of principles of truth, freedom and honesty. Mike Whitney (“Genocide in Gaza: King Bibi’s Land Grab” Global Research: 5/10/2024), is an independent reputbale citizen journalist captions the prevalent facts: The assault on Rafah comes despite the acceptance by Hamas Monday of a proposal for a temporary cessation of hostilities in exchange for the release of hostages. But after spending weeks attempting to blame the Palestinians for the ongoing war, Israeli officials flatly rejected the proposal….The cynical and misleading phrase “Israel’s right to defend itself” has become synonymous with the premeditated mass-murder of civilians. Most people have never seen anything as  horrific as Israel’s ongoing genocide in Gaza which explains why college campuses across the United States have become hotbeds of political activism almost overnight. America’s students now serve as the nation’s conscience by opposing a flagrantly-immoral onslaught that deliberately targets defenseless women and children….If you’ve ever taken a lifesaving course, you know there’s a real possibility that a drowning person will drag you under and you’ll both die. It’s a lesson that should be kept in mind when discussing America’s relationship with Israel. (Adapted from @LarryBoorstein. https://www.globalresearch.ca/genocide-gaza-king-bibi-land-grab/5856841

PM Netanyahu is not winning the camouflaged political battle and resorts to extreme fractured mindset to annihilate the innocent people of Gaza and more so at Rafah. He looks a despotic figure not a leader, broken in moral, spiritual and human integrity lacking distinction between virtue and vice and using the logic of power as the source of polemic strategies violating the international civilized norms of human safety, conflict resolution and peacemaking. 

Across the US, new generations of thinking people demonstarte revulsion  against one-track established political perspective of the State of Israel  and its war in Gaza on university campuses and question the rationality of catastrophic human sufferings, crimes against humanity and alleged genocide of Palestinians. Ironically, America and Israel appear to be ignoring the legal binding implications of the ICJ verdict demanding Israel to “prevent all acts of Genocide in Gaza.” 

Western Colonialism and the Betrayal of Arab-Muslim Leaders

The static Arab-Muslom leadership lacking credibility hides under the OIC (The organization of Islamic conferences) – a dry inked paper entity to propel its meaningless resolution for the ceasefire and peace in Palestine. Some of those signing the paper enjoin business relationships with Israel. They are being watched and cursed by the Arab masses for indifference and betrayal to the Islamic principles of helping the helpless victims of war. There are reportedly several thousand of Western (German, French, the US,  British)mercenaries fighting along the Israeli forces in Gaza.

The Western mythologist view the oil exporting Arab leaders as “camel jockeys” and  brainless figures. They live in palaces protected by the American and European mercenaries, while erecting high-rise buildings, organizing football matches, olympic games and COP28, while 2.5 millions are being displaced and more than 34,547 are massacred across Gaza and some 14,700 innocent children killed. Israeli attacks on hospitals, places of worship and killing of civilians goes unabatedly. The Arab-Muslim leaders have no sense of time and history and capacity to defend the interest of Islam as the Israeli Ultra Nationalists plan to dismantle the 3rd holiest site Al-Aqsa Mosque in Jerusalem. Please see: “Al-Aqsa Mosque Waiting for the Arab Leaders” and “America-Israel War on Gaza a Prelude to Conquest of the ArabWorld ”https://www.uncommonthought.com/mtblog/archives/2024/01/05/america-israels-war-on-gaza-a-prelude-to-conquest-of-the-arab-world.php

Planet Earth is Living  and for All – Those Bombing it are Morally and Intellectually Sick People

Earth is living and sustains life and all that is needed by all the living things and rotates itself at a speed of 1000 miles per hour at equator and orbits the Sun at average speed of 67062 MPH. Earthis a “trust” to humankind for its existence, sustenance of life, survival, progress and future-making. Those who bomb the Earth and destroy  human lives and habitats are not normal human beings and God will hold them accountable for the consequences of their crimes against mankind.“Fear God” and ‘do not violate the covenants of peace and trust on earth’, remind the teachings of the Bible, Torah and Quran to all mankind, otherwise God’s punishment to the transgressor will be severe. (Quran: 40: 21):

“Do they not travel through the Earth and see what was the End before them? They were even superior to them in strength; And in the traces (they have left) in the land: But God did call them to account for their sins; And none had they to defend them against God.”

Those who believe-in and follow the Divine Judaism – the generations of Israelite are reminded by God (Quran 2: 84-85): 

And remember, We took a Covenant from the Children of Israel (progeny of Jacob), Worship none but God; ….shed no blood amongst you, Nor displace people from  homes: and Ye solemnly ratified…… And on the Day of Judgment they shall be consigned to the most grievous penalty,For God is not unmindful what ye do. 

And killing of innocent people is prohibited in the Ten Commandments (Torah):

‘Thou shalt not kill’ (Exod. 20:13; also Deut. 5:17). Jewish law views the shedding of innocent blood very seriously, and lists murder as one of three sins (along with idolatry and sexual immorality), that fall under the category of yehareg ve’al ya’avor – meaning “One should let himself be killed rather than violate it.”According to Rabbi Judah Loew of Prague: ‘Jewish law forbids the killing of innocent people, even in the course of a legitimate military engagement.’

PM Netyanhu admits “ Israel stands alone.” Do the people of Israel feel confident of PM Netanyahu’s leadership towards peacemaking and global harmony? When egoistic transgressors challenge the sanctity and limits of the Laws of God, they become an object of punishment from God and that is how many powerful nations were destroyed in history.  

Lessons of History are ignored and how America Lost Humanity? 

If the global institutions were not defunct, the 2.5 million civilians should have been protected by the UNO and leading powers as the Charter makes them obligated in conflict zones. Mass graves of medical professionals, innocent civilians targeted at gunpoint are discovered from  three hospitals in Gaza but Western intellect does not call for accountability to the aggressors. What if the Arab-Muslim world had armed forces and honest leaders to protect the people of Gaza?

The American-Israeli collaborative war on Gaza and its immediate consequences made the Western world and all of its institutions shamefully redundant in the 21st century global norms of civility, human rights, freedom, justice and safety of civilians – whereas crimes against humanity are captured in obscure impulses and indecision and deliberate inaction by the UNO and the Security Council. Mike Whitney (“Genocide in Gaza: King Bibi’s Land Grab” Global Research: 5/10/2024), quotes author Lawrence Davidson to answer some of the critical questions by showing how the transplanting of mainly European Jews to Palestine created “cultural and ‘racial’ incubators for an ‘us (superior) vs. them (inferior)’” which is fairly common among settler populations. Here’s more:

The founders of modern Zionism were both Jews and Europeans, and (as such) had acquired the West’s cultural sense of superiority in relation to non-Europeans…..This sense of superiority would play an important role when a deal (the Balfour Declaration) (in which), the British would… help create a “Jewish national home” in Palestine……in other European colonies, where large numbers of Europeans resided, the era following World War II saw their eventual evacuation as power shifted over to the natives….Unfortunately, in the case of Palestine, this process of de-colonization never occurred…..And, from the Zionist standpoint, this entire process has worked remarkably well. Today all but a handful of Israeli Jews dislike and fear the people they conquered and displaced. They wish they would go away. And, when their resistance gets just a bit too much to bear, they are now quite willing to see them put out of the way….

Like Israel, Palsetine is a nation, a human culture and its entire natural visibility is obliterated by Israeli war machines.The animals have no bombs, no guns and bullets to kill each other and do not reflect on the imperatives of life. We, the human beings, are supposed to be intelligent and responsible species on this Earth. At the edge of reason, the notion of evil leads to realization of evil and tyranny of war must be stopped by all means and those responsible for bombing the innocents, the genocide and crimes against humanity must be held accountable to restore the vision of a sustainable moral and intellectual humanity.
