The relentless escalation of violence in Palestine and Lebanon over the past days is impossible to read without recognising a grim pattern. Reports of an Israeli settler attack injuring a Palestinian baby, airstrikes on Lebanon killing three, and assaults on Palestinian Christians during Christmas collectively reflect a campaign that cannot credibly be framed as reactive or isolated. The ongoing bloodshed, displacement, and destruction expose a truth long obscured by diplomatic euphemisms: the Israeli-Palestinian conflict is not primarily about hostages or security, but about systematic dispossession and ethnic cleansing.Yet, despite the glaring evidence, the global powers that continue to support Israel do so not out of principle, but to protect their own colonial ambitions. No observer with even a fraction of humanity can claim ignorance of the atrocities on the ground. The masks of moral superiority worn by political leaders, celebrities, and influential business figures are slipping, revealing allegiances dictated by profit, power, and the preservation of entrenched privilege. Public scrutiny, amplified by social media and independent reporting, is dismantling these façades. The people are seeing through the theatrics, holding accountable those who have long styled themselves as arbiters of justice while facilitating, directly or indirectly, the erasure of a population.
