Understanding the Israeli-Palestinian Conflict: Unveiling the Gaza Siege and the Call for Peace

Regarding the massacres in Israel and the violent response of the IDF, the Prime Minister first considered that the Israeli government had the right to defend itself. A few days later, Vivaldi called for an immediate humanitarian ceasefire. Belgian diplomacy is changing…

When we discovered the terrible attacks by Hamas – the young people killed, the babies burned, the hostages – we could only feel compassion and understand the response. But what is happening now in Gaza no longer has anything to do with the defense of Israel or the Jews. The Israeli army is massacring children, innocent people, citizens, who have nothing to do with Hamas. People are dying in hospitals that can no longer function… These are war crimes! The West must make this clear to Israel. As a liberal, I am on the side of the innocent victims. Palestinian or Israeli, a child killed is a child killed. It has the same value. If, as Joe Biden and Ursula von der Leyen did, we defend Israel without revolting when children are killed in Gaza, it gives the impression that people who have Arab-Muslim roots count less than others.

Israeli-Palestinian conflict: “This is unheard of. The civilian population has no means of protecting themselves…”

But what to do ? Can Israel negotiate a ceasefire with a terrorist organization whose members commit pogroms and are prepared to “martyr” to exterminate Jews? Isn’t it easy to lecture the Israelis?

We do not fight Hamas by bombing Gaza, we strengthen it. Hamas had almost disappeared. If he has become sympathetic again in the Arab world, it is because of Israel’s disproportionate response. Netanyahu is endangering his own country and Jews everywhere because of his reaction. I understand that the army is entering Gaza, to fight the Hamas leaders right down to the tunnels. But the current strikes on Gaza are only revenge. It’s like dropping bombs on Molenbeek because terrorists grew up in this town. Any sense. We kill innocent people. And blood calls for blood. Hamas terrorists are now seen as freedom fighters in the Arab world… If we want a quick solution, we need a ceasefire. Belgium offers to host peace negotiations in Brussels to guarantee the security of Israel and the Palestinians.
