Yes, the issue is the double standards. Eg: more UNGA resolutions against Israel than against all other countries combined https://unwatch.org/2024-unga-resolutions-on-israel-vs-rest-of-the-world.

Or, when the US assassinated Bin-Laden, there were celebrations in front of the White House. When Israel captured Eichmann to bring him to trial, there were no celebrations in Israel, but the UNSC issued resolution 138 condemning Israel and demanding reparations.

Agree completely. The world is hypocritical indeed!

You make several excellent points! The ‘human interaction’ all over the planet is absolutely nauseating; no people are better or worse than the others.

This is definitely one of my favourites among your many eye-opening wake-up pieces! People cry for the innocent Palestinians, as well they should, but when do they cry for the innocent women under Taliban rule? When do they cry for the Israeli people massacred by Hamas on that fateful October 7? When do they cry for all the innocent victims (civilians and soldiers alike) of all government-sponsored murder "legitimized" as war?

Thank -you for writing this. As Always- your article is fair, fact based and thought-provoking. My sustained experience of the past 19 months/since Oct 2023-whether speaking with/listening to peers, university students,co-workers,etc..is that there are still may with their own biases; whether political, religious, social, family history,.etc..Whenever I bring up reference points to actual genocides that Western society has turned a deaf ear to- the room gets quiet. Interpret this as you wish....

Many thanks Howard. It is a difficult and tragic situation all around, brought about by Hamas intransigience. All the best!

Thank you Eddy. Precise and to the point! Victims on both sides and yet Hamas refuses to release the hostages… the horror! And unbelievable that this is not how every news report starts…

Your pro-Israeli propaganda in the face of the truth that people - and finally Western governments - are finally realising is repugnant.

The barbarity of the Israeli government for which you offer lame excuses is using starvation as a weapon of war. This isn’t about Hamas - it’s about a land grab. And it’s about the dehumanisation of a noble people - the Palestinians - whom the Israeli Government is steadily exterminating.

This isn’t a “tragedy” - it is a deliberate act of ethnic cleansing.

Suggests you watch yesterday’s BBC…a broadcaster (at least hitherto) complicit in these war crimes.
