Recognition of Independent Palestinian State

The long overdue status of Independent Palestinian statehood is the only path towards establishment of peace, fairness and inalienable rights of Palestinians to experience liberty and sovereignty like the many across the globe.

The latest overreach from certain European nations Norway, Ireland and Spain and perhaps others to follow suit in this initiative would restore humanitarian law besides stability, harmony and security in the otherwise unnecessarily embattled Middle East region.

Independent Palestine is the bedrock for human rights to exist in their respective domain and territory with dignity in freedom from illegal occupation, colonization, settlements and incessant violations lasting over seventy five years in modern political history.

Gaza war carried out on global watch with those having green signaled in October 2023 with arms, ammunitions and logistic assistance till date imposing the brutal genocide of population en masse is the blue print of authoritarian democracy in vogue.

Above all, the atrocities committed denying entire Gazan citizens access to drinking water, food, medical treatments and various basic facilities is by far the worst humanitarian violation by the so-called democratic leaderships declining the international stance to end violent military invasion killing more than 40,000 though the unofficial death toll could be much higher considering the debris and rubble inflicted in the demolition of Gaza and now embarked in Rafah having claimed more than half territory in the border with Egypt.

Notwithstanding, the aggression aimed at deliberate impairment of humanitarian services targeting humanitarian workers, medical teams, paramedics, bombing ambulances, non-profit organizations, news media personnel and anyone in any capacity involved to alleviate horrendous human plight in Gaza and rest of whatever remain as Palestinian territory since Israel’s military operation in the last eight months is heinous war crime against humanity at large.

These events given international volunteers falling casualty in the heavy military bombardment and ground troop mobilization again rejecting global dissent condemning unparalleled disproportionate arbitrary killings of children, babies in incubators, women, elderly, the sick and the able…none spared in the violent military onslaught thus far do not measure to any reason, rationality and least of all human civilization.

The military aggressor Israel together with United States administration and members in Congress having bolstered the carnage from the get go until now with self-contradictions on narratives in public regarding the superficial Red-line in Rafah, nevertheless slighted by U.S.ally and chief economic as well as military hardware and technology beneficiary Israel up until now.

The incumbent U.S.administration balancing act to manage fragile political downslide in 2024 Presidential election year via public dissemination on passive approach on Gaza war while maintaining status quo behind the scenes reflect the true nature of incumbency with serious credibility problems in the executive and legislative branch across the aisle.

Not to mention, the United States repeat consistent protocol with veto on UNSC resolutions and UN General Assembly decisions on Gaza genocide in the never ending Israeli military intervention further highlight aversion to genuine permanent ceasefire preventing massive loss of lives and immeasurable human suffering.

Amid the violent eight-month long Israeli military engagement with United States, Britain and allies formidable aiding and abetting carpet bombing transforming the Gaza territory into graveyard,

The United States political class in power and their media at the powerful Israeli lobby behest criticizing the students peaceful protests in the U.S. University campuses urging politics to stop the bloodshed in Gaza now expanded into Rafah with moratorium on weapons supply to the belligerent force viz. Israel as the military power is a stark distinction on the understanding or the lack thereof in the entire matter.

While politics dismiss the varsity campus students as ignorant and isolated western promoted controversial novelist / author monetizing from denigration of religion(s) noted earlier as fugitive and known for obsequious acquiescence to global masters’ hegemony and pejorative foreign policy branding the University students’ rational peaceful anti-war activism in and outside the campus as them favoring fascism and terrorism is human intelligence gone astray.

When it is appropriately the other way around in Gaza war or for that matter on anything where the brute force reining control over population destiny and their civil rights to oppose the wrong justified as the right in the dark age. The systemic subversion and chronic disinformation are the favorite political propaganda in the offensive self-defense.

The presumptuous powerful claiming proprietary rights on all issues, their negative characterization of the campus students walk-outs and silent rejection of war mongering politics and celebrities’ campus commencement speeches pledging support on Gaza war with the former ignoring several thousands premature burials not barring deprivation of the essentials to citizens in the merciless depravation continued alongside relentless reminder on holocaust is evasive and exclusive.

The developments delineate the present youth comprehension of events regardless of censorship and misinformation having become the norm directly affecting many from those presiding over chaos, death and destruction.

As a result, the youth voicing their legitimate concerns as not only the millennial electorate but also the generation burdened with sovereign debt to the hilt moving forward predominantly squandering tax dollars to kill innocent lives in foreign land is cut-and-dry and as clear as day and night.

As for the United States current Oval office reservations on the popular demand for independent Palestinian state citing the administration is not in alignment with unilateral recognition of Palestinian statehood even though the position is that of overwhelming majority across the globe calling for Palestinian liberation from abhorrent apartheid, enforcement of Nakba evidenced in the ongoing Gaza war and systematic seizure of meager Palestinian territory reduced to nothing since 1947 and more so after 1967.

Importantly, the British ruling power then coerced by Zionist agenda and influential affluent Rothschild family clout led by the infamous Balfour declaration were demonstrably unilateral creation of Israel in Palestine in 1948.

There were no mediation or negotiation even considered necessary between then native inhabitants – the Arab Palestinians and other ethnic groups living in Palestine at that time and the transmigrants Jewish diaspora primarily from western, eastern and central Europe.

Unlike the arduous journey until now remaining contentious to reinstate Palestinian statehood. The effort to reach an agreement between the colonizer Israel and the colonized Palestinians over seven decades is successfully stalled and bulwarked albeit protecting western hegemonic interests in the region for economic and strategic dominance.

The egregious policy alongside insisting on Israel’s totalitarian fascist legacy against Palestinians extended across the region as Israel’s defensive might with United States, Britain and other western allegiance not excluding any other non-western so-called democracy joining the band wagon exacerbate the much awaited pending peace prospects.

Where there is a will, there is a way overcoming any challenges and obstacles in the trail towards peace, progress to accept and respect human life and rights as equal no more or less than own individual assertion exemplified in acknowledgment and recognition of freedom and sovereignty of those near and far.

Independent Palestine is the inevitable and imminent remedy to extinguish the fire from air raids, missiles and rockets on all sides.

Peace in Palestine and Middle East is the saving grace leaving behind indefinite volatility and turmoil.
