Abstract: As Tufan al-Aqsa marks its second anniversary, the devastation in Gaza remains immense. Thousands have been killed in relentless Israeli bombardments, and countless children, the sick, and the elderly face starvation under a blockade that has systematically denied access to food, medicine, and humanitarian aid. Relief efforts to reach Gaza’s besieged population have been deliberately obstructed, while global protests from India to the United States have been criminalized and severely repressed. Diplomatic initiatives and peace negotiations have yielded no lasting results. In a striking display of hypocrisy, several Western states complicit in the genocide against Palestinians have now moved to recognize Palestine as a state.
