Op-Ed video: Netanyahu is 'finishing the job' while the world watches
What we're seeing unfold in northern Gaza is qualitatively different than any of the horrors that have been unleashed on Gaza over the past year.
What's taking place is worse than the Nakba (the Catastrophe) in 1948 when 700,000 Palestinians were made refugees, because what happened at Deir Yassin or Tantura is happening every night in northern Gaza.
Today, a total siege is being laid. There is no food, water, or medical care coming in.
"What remains of the healthcare system after a year of bombing is being systematically dismantled. Schools are being bombed. Northern Gaza is being rendered uninhabitable," said David Hearst, the co-founder and editor-in-chief of Middle East Eye.
"This has been going on for three weeks and there is no international pressure on Benjamin Netanyahu to stop. There are no statements of condemnation by any western leader.
"Netanyahu thinks he is winning this war by burying his enemies in rubble.
Instead, he is "burying any chance of Israeli Jews being able to live in peace with their Arab neighbours for decades to come."
