On The Palestinian Injustice - A Little Reminder During The Catastrophic War In Ukraine

In May 2021, Louis Charbonneau a United Nations Director, published in the Foreign Policy Focus on How the UN can help end Israeli Apartheid and persecution; 

It was one of the most vocally direct condemnations of the Israeli occupation and the atrocities they are committing day in and day out, violating human rights all over the chart. It was surprising for me to read direct messages, holding the Israeli government the responsibilities for Palestinian suffering, an alien declaration from UN officials. Surprising statements were:

"The world should stop pretending that these crimes aren’t happening. It should also not tolerate depriving millions of Palestinians of their fundamental rights in order to preserve the possibility of a peace deal that isn’t coming anytime soon." he continues with "The crime requires three elements: an intention to maintain a system of domination, systematic oppression, and inhumane acts committed as part of that project." "Human Rights Watch found that Israeli authorities have demonstrated an intent to maintain a system of domination across all the territories they control and carried out systematic oppression and inhumane acts in the Occupied Palestinian Territories. The related crime of persecution involves the intentional and severe deprivation of fundamental rights by reason of the identity of the group and requires discriminatory intent."

Almost a year to this article, The world is drowned with the consequences of the Russian invasion of Ukraine and the resistance against this invasion, almost heroic, passing for a rightful act while denied for several decades on Palestinians. In this blog, I wanted to share this article and shed light on the fact that the world is attracted by driven stories and reels, not by rightful, wrongful and standing against injustice. Palestinian people paid heavily the price of the world's reactions to the unjust, and now the whole world will pay the same price, for we admittedly accepted what was happening to the Palestinians, unconcerned by the humiliation, the prosecution and the daily killings these people endured.
