Even when Netanyahu and his government are removed and put on trial for their crimes, 3 deeper and more dangerous problems will remain.

 

1. The international community

The world’s governments have witnessed almost in silence the most well-documented genocide of the modern era. If a dictator can be stopped by an international community with firm common principles, much more difficult is when it is the international community to be dominated by geopolitical and economic interests and prioritize political and financial profit over human rights.
The biggest problem here is not another Netanyahu, but the West’s collective failure to respect the values it proclaims in its constitutions.
Every year we celebrate Remembrance Day with the motto “Never Again” but in the face of Palestine we have chosen all together, again, to look elsewhere.

 

2. Hatred among the younger generation

In recent decades many Israeli youth have grown up with the relentless narratives of Zionist schools that dehumanize Palestinians to the point of convincing them that killing them all, babies included, is the only option.
A Palestinian YouTuber named Hamzah Saadah is collecting hundreds of sessions on Omegle with Israeli teenagers and young boys and girls expressing such brutal inhumanity to Palestinians that one can hardly believe they are still in the age of innocence.
This obscene ideology in Israeli kids exposes the pervasive indoctrination imposed by Zionists on Jewish people, who remain trapped inside their Zionist bubble.

On the other hand, Arab children have seen their families and little brothers and sisters mercilessly slaughtered by soldiers with the Star of David on their helmets who, after killing them, took pictures of themselves with their toys in their hands in a horrifying display of inhumanity.
No wonder that from such traumas sprouts an implacable hatred, destined to last for generations.
October 7, 2023 risks being remembered only as the beginning of a even more brutal spiral of violence.

I am certain that when this conflict ends, documents and testimonies that have been concealed today will emerge, and the world will have to come to terms with a horror that is perhaps even more vast than what we see filtering through now.
The brutality that leaks out today is only a fraction of what the IDF is trying to keep hidden by banning and killing journalists from conflict zones.

 

3. The “divine right” ideology

A substantial part of Israeli society is firmly convinced that that land belongs to them by biblical right. It is an idea taught in Zionist schools and communities in Israel and around the world.
But international law is secular and does not recognize religious claims. As long as entire generations grow up with this belief, the international community will face an ideological conflict that cannot be resolved by political agreements alone. Who explains to millions of Jews that international law is secular and is based on principles that are not religious? That simply “this land is mine because my God told me so” is not a valid concept.
Generations of Israelis will continue to pursue their insane Zionist goal on religious grounds, and this will have to be handled by the international community.
