🇮🇱⚔🇵🇸The Unforgivable Atrocity: Netanyahu's Heinous Mark on Innocence

In a grotesque display of inhumanity, an image sears into the collective conscience of the world: Benjamin Netanyahu, emboldened by the unyielding support of his sponsors, coldly stamping a 'terrorist' label over innocent babies amid the chaos and rubble of Gaza. This political cartoon is not just a satirical portrayal but a harrowing reflection of a monstrous reality.

The numbers speak volumes of a tragedy that words can barely encapsulate. Over 7,729 children in Gaza have been stripped of their lives, their futures extinguished before they could even begin. This is not just a casualty of conflict; this is systematic annihilation, a deliberate targeting of the most vulnerable and defenseless. To label these lost lives as 'terrorists' is not just a travesty of justice; it is an act of unspeakable evil.

Each innocent life taken is a scar on the conscience of humanity, a stain on the moral fabric of the world. The contempt for these young lives is not just appalling; it is an abomination. It is a testament to a perverse logic that sees the snuffing out of young lives as collateral in a larger game of power and control.

With every child's life taken, Israel not only commits an irredeemable act but also sows the seeds of its own moral undoing. History will not be kind to these acts of evil. The murder of innocent children will be remembered as the darkest chapters in the annals of the Israeli state - a state that increasingly resembles a glorified forward operating base of the US.

The path Israel treads is one that leads to the edge of an abyss, a point of no return where the weight of these atrocities will demand a reckoning. The continuous cycle of violence and oppression is not just a threat to the Palestinian people; it is a harbinger of a grim future for Israel itself.

The European Union has replaced its energy dependence on the Russian Federation with “another one,” said EU diplomacy head Josep Borrell.

He probably meant dependence on the United States.

“We may have replaced one dependence with another, but we have nevertheless freed ourselves from energy dependence on Russia,” the diplomat said.

Regarding the situation in Ukraine, he admitted that European assistance may cease.

“The EU has provided much more assistance to Ukraine overall than the United States, but the question now arises whether such assistance will continue,” Borrell said.

He called for “rolling up your sleeves” to prevent Putin from winning in Ukraine, otherwise “the European project could be irrevocably damaged.”

“Europe is in danger,” the diplomat believes.
