Israel- Palestine War

"Central London's Pro-Hamas Celebration Sparks Global Outrage: 'Put the Guns Down and We Cease to Exist.'"

In 1964, an opportunist Yasser Arafat made a significant move by raising the Jordanian flag without the star. This act is said to mark the beginning of 3,000 years of Palestinian history. Zahwa Arafat, a 25-year-old, daughter of Yasser is now estimated to have a fortune of 8 billion dollars.

She lives in Paris and, and among other assets, owns an entire street of properties in London. Yasser Arafat is a double creator; not only is he attributed to the creation of modern Palestinian identity, but he is also considered a key figure in the emergence of international jihadist terror in the 80s. But pro- Palestine people do not want to know about that.

In the heart of Central London, a seemingly unified display of support for Palestine takes an unexpected turn. What happened was not merely a show of solidarity, but rather a celebration led primarily by pro-Hamas Palestinian groups.

This event draws attention not only for its significance but also for its international implications, sparking heated debates and revealing a deeper, multifaceted narrative.

Among those who expressed their support for Palestine was the Black Lives Matter (BLM) movement from Chicago. Their Facebook statement, declaring that they "Stand with Palestine," resonated far beyond the confines of social media. This declaration, in a poignant reference to recent attacks involving paragliders, ignited a wave of bad reactions.

As the world watched in disbelief, questions arose about the nature of the celebration itself. What kind of people celebrates women been raped and babies beheaded?

What kind of people celebrate the most tragic day, where 1,300 Israeli lives were lost in a single day—a death toll reminiscent of the Holocaust? The conflict's roots have plunged into complex geopolitics, raising questions about Iran's involvement and the motivations behind the attacks.

In the realm of international politics, the conflict takes on new dimensions. Republicans, without a House Speaker, are in a race to block President Biden's proposed $6 billion deal involving Iran's frozen assets, intended for the exchange of American prisoners.

Iran a Shiite nation, is apprehensive about the approximation of Sunni nations like Saudi Arabia, Egypt, and “Jordan” to Israel or the Western world, have fuelled global controversies.

The military leader of Hamas, Muhammad Deif, points a finger at Israel's handling of Palestine as the catalyst for the attacks. At the heart of the debate lies the accusation of apartheid against Israel, a claim disputed by demographic shifts in Gaza's population.

Which apartheid is that who let the Gaza population to grow from 750 thousand since the Gaza homologation in 1947 by UN declaration to todays' 4 million people?

Different from Hamas, Israel provided civilians with a crucial 72-hour gap to escape the conflict zone, highlighting a contrasting approach that has been a subject of debate.

As the conflict rages on, the media's role in shaping feelings and narratives becomes a point of contention. Viewers have notified the BBC to Ofcom for not labelling Hamas as a terrorist group, while figures like Gary Lineker laud the broadcaster's stance. Notably, in other instances, Lineker took a different approach, particularly against Suella Braverman and the government's policies to stop boats in Dover-Calais.

Sporting arenas like Wembley have become symbolic in the discourse against terrorism been lit before with French flag colours, Ukranian colours, and so on; now abstained itself by a decision taken for FA chief executive for Inclusion Advisory Board (IAB), Deji Davies which was caught sharing a post in 2013 pro-Palestinians, also, calling for the under under-21 European football tournament in Israel to be boycotted in the same year.

This multifaceted conflict transcends borders and encompasses international geopolitics. It is in this intricate web that former U.S. President, Donald Trump, Monday 11th of October raised a critical question—how can a Jew be leftist?

The geopolitical analysis by James Carafano, vice president of the Heritage Institute, unravels how Russia, China, and Iran are coordinating their efforts to destabilize the region, with Hamas and Hezbollah playing pivotal roles.

During all these narratives, the most fundamental question appears: Why is this called the Hamas-Israel war when the Palestinian government is often seen as a Hamas puppet, and Hamas enjoys support from the Palestinian population?

The conflict, at its core, is a deeply complex and enduring confrontation between Palestine and Israel. As the former Israeli Prime Minister Golda Meir (1898–1978) aptly said, "If Palestine puts the guns down, there will be no more war; if Israel puts the guns down, it ceases to exist."
