As Israel prepares to mark the 1 year anniversary of the horrific Hamas-triggered attacks of October 7, which killed 1,139 people and saw another 252 abducted, retaliatory attacks continue over Gaza, the West Bank, Lebanon, Syria, Yemen and soon to be, Iran.
The destruction and devastation since that day, with a death toll well surpassing 42,000 has been unprecedented. Israel on the weekend continued its year-old intensified bombing campaign taking lives, and causing unbelievable injuries to hundreds of thousands of people, mostly women and children, and massive displacement of millions.
In the shadows, the Israeli government is now contemplating an attack on Iran which could involve the country’s oil supplies or its nuclear facilities. Former U.S. President Donald Trump has urged Israel to attack Iran’s nuclear plants. Iran has asserted that if their country is attacked there were will be a response.
The situation in the MIddle East is unprecedented with the region embroiled in all-out hostilities. Israel says it is at war, however its enormous U.S.-supplied military capabilities, including fleets of hundreds of F-16 and F-35 warplanes is no match for the unsophisticated, largely useless rockets, that Hamas, Hezbollah and the Houthis are firing at Israel.
The international community has been rendered impotent in its calls for a ceasefire. The United Nations Security Council, charged with keeping international peace has been deterred on three occasions of demanding a ceasefire in Gaza by the United States which continues to feed the Israeli military with arms and munitions to continue wreaking its death and destruction.
