Understanding the Israel-Hamas Conflict and Global Reactions

Dr.Thomas (Special Correspondent)

The Israel-Hamas conflict has reignited global attention, prompting varied reactions from nations, individuals,and influential figures.

As the war unfolds,many are questioning the actions and stances of different entities involved,sparking debates about morality,history,and geopolitics.

When a girl was brutally tortured in India,the entire country,including the media and the people,united to raise their voices against the atrocity.

Similarly,many Israeli girls were brutally raped and killed by Hamas, including children.They showed no respect even for the dead bodies, which reflects their basic culture.I still wonder how people can support them

Europe’s Response to the Conflict

In recent months, several European countries have begun distancing themselves diplomatically or economically from Israel, citing concerns over its actions in Gaza.

However, this reaction has left many questioning where the outrage was when Hamas launched its unprecedented attack on Israel on October 7,2023.

That day marked one of the darkest moments in Israel’s history, with mothers, children,and civilians brutally tortured,killed, and taken hostage.

This apparent disparity in global condemnation has sparked frustration among Israel’s supporters.The atrocities committed by Hamas on October 7 remind the world of the group’s violent nature,yet some continue to view the conflict through a lens that dismisses such actions.

Ronaldo’s Stance and the Role of Jewish Contributions
Famed footballer Cristiano Ronaldo has reportedly voiced his opposition to Israel,using social media platforms to share his views.

Ironically, mobile phones were invented by Jewish individuals, and the technology behind many social media platforms can trace its roots to innovations developed by Jewish communities.

This has sparked discussions about the broader contributions of Jewish communities globally, particularly through Israel.

Israel’s Contributions to the World

Israel,despite being a small nation, has made significant contributions across various sectors:

1.Technology: Israel is often referred to as the “Startup Nation,” with groundbreaking innovations in fields such as cybersecurity, medical technology, and agriculture.

2. Medicine:From cancer research to life-saving devices like PillCam,Israel has provided transformative healthcare solutions.

3. Defense and Intelligence: Israel’s advanced defense systems, such as Iron Dome, have not only protected its own citizens but have also been adopted by other nations.

4. Humanitarian Aid: Israel frequently offers aid and assistance worldwide, regardless of political affiliations.

In contrast,Hamas and its allied groups are often criticized for contributing little beyond perpetuating conflict. Instead of prioritizing the well-being of Palestinians, such groups have focused on warfare, misusing international aid for military purposes.

Historical and Moral Justifications for Supporting Israel

Support for Israel stems from both historical and ethical perspectives:

• Historical Rights:The land of Israel has deep-rooted significance for the Jewish people, dating back thousands of years. Claims of Palestinian statehood before the 20th century lack historical basis, as no sovereign state called “Palestine” existed.

• Moral Responsibility: Israel’s right to defend itself against terrorism aligns with international norms. Hamas, a designated terrorist organization by the U.S., U.K., E.U., and others, has consistently targeted civilians, violating human rights and international law.

India’s Relationship with Israel

Israel has been a steadfast ally to India, particularly during critical moments like the Kargil War. In 1999, Israel provided India with vital military support, including weaponry and technology, contributing to India’s victory. This partnership is a testament to Israel’s commitment to aiding its allies.

Why the U.S.and U.K. Support Israel

The U.S., U.K., and other nations continue to back Israel for several reasons:

1. Shared Values:As a democratic nation in the Middle East, Israel aligns with Western ideals.

2. Economic Ties:Jewish communities have significantly contributed to global economies, fostering strong financial and political alliances.

3. Geopolitical Strategy:Supporting Israel helps maintain a balance of power in a volatile region.

Concluding Thoughts

As a global citizen and patriot, I personally stand with Israel for two main reasons:

1. Historical Legitimacy: The land of Israel belongs to the Jewish people, as affirmed by history and faith.

2. Humanitarian Values: Israel’s contributions to humanity far outweigh the destruction perpetuated by groups like Hamas.

I am fully aware that once I publish this article, it will draw attention to me, and I may face backlash or even persecution.

Just as in the past, when I was falsely accused and targeted with fabricated cases, I expect similar attempts to silence me and discredit my views.”
