The situation in the Middle East is somewhat unstable, mainly in the West Bank and the Gaza Strip. The continuing argument of the so-called promised land of Israel and Palestine, this long ongoing feud over the occupation of illegal territory.
The situation has been going on for more than 70 years; however, recently, military action, mainly by the Israelis, has erupted the stability of the Middle East (once again).
The fact that Israel has decided to take this kind of military action with little care for the civilians involved nor its implication to the argument of a two-state solution. While much of the world condemned the Israel-Palestinian conflict, the war continues with many consequences, often in the name of religion and whose land is mine.
The real victims are, of course, the citizens, who are innocent people who bear the most of this conflict. There are many solutions for peace in the Middle East, but many are ignored mainly because it is just too easy not to constantly fight with each other.
The war and what it is has long been against the United Nations mandate, but the world seems uninterested, but a free Palestine state is needed for political and much-needed stability in the Middle East.
The conflict had been made worse by ex-president Donald Trump and the weakness of the Joe Biden administration.
The question of terrorism by the Palestinian group Hamas fuelling the fire, but without Hamas, the Palestinian cause may have gone quiet and even gone unnoticed. The world needs a free Palestine as much as the world needs a Jewish state (Israel)
Peace in the Middle East would globally be beneficial to the rest of the Middle East; however, with Israel’s military might and my country, the UK (among others) often refuses to help with the growing problem. The United States had famously backed Israel with technology and high-tech weaponry, which has, in many people’s views, been used indiscriminately on any target within the West Bank and Gaza Strip, whether considered a civilian or legitimate military target.
The Holocaust may be one of the world’s darkest moments in history; however, you can’t blame Palestinians for another country’s beliefs and ideas of persecution, as most Palestinians were not even born when the Holocaust happened.
Therefore, two wrongs don’t make a right. A free Palestine and a two-state solution is not just a necessity but the only way for peace in the Middle East.
