If You Support Israel You Are On Wrong Side Of History

Israel’s pre-emptive attack on Iran and the American assistance in blowing some holes in the side of a mountain overshadowed the ongoing carnage in Palestine where during the 12 day battle, over 550 Palestinians were killed by the IDF, manywhile attempting to secure food and water from the sites set up by the Israeli's in a combat zone.  
It defies belief that the Unicef spokesperson, James Elder, should have needed to spell that out this week that: 'We cannot be asking civilians to go into a combat zone so that then they can be killed with the justification that they are in a combat zone' and yet each day Palestinians continue to be killed en-mass while attempting to collect aid for their families from food hubs in Gaza.
Unfortunately, mid the Israeli genocide, Palestinians are being forced to make a choice between risking being shot and letting their families starve to death in what Médecins Sans Frontières has described as: 'Slaughter masquerading as humanitarian aid'.
Overall, the grim death toll of the Israeli version of their own Final Solution, stands at 56,331 people who have died in Israeli attacks since war began but many consider this an undercount with bodies still buried under the mass graves of building rubble and think the total will exceed 80,000 and that is before they even begin counting the the toll of those dying from hunger and dehydration.
One day thankfully this will all be over but the vision of Netanyahu and the Israeli Government is one which includes the disappearance of Palestinians from Gaza and the West Bank where 3 Palestinians where shot by the IDF yesterday for resisting settlers who were burning down houses and attacking Palestinians.
When future generations read about Gaza with horror at the true scale of the slaughter and wonder how we allowed it to happen and how a country was allowed to bomb homes, aid centres and hospitals and shoot dead civilians who were bought to the point of starvation and enticed to distribution hubs to then shoot at them.
The people with real power, the politicians who supplied the weapons and gave cover to the genocide, minimized the Israeli war crimes and atrocities by allowing Israel carte blanche to do whatever it liked, history will judge all these people and those who supported it and by supporting it, if you believe this all began in 2023, then you deserve to be castigated if you answer the question asked by future generations of what did you do in the Gaza genocide, you answer that you supported it.
