Gaza Crisis: Unprecedented Suffering and Human Rights Atrocities

A renowned human rights activist, Hina Jilani, joins Rabia Mehmood to discuss Israel's relentless bombardment of Gaza, one of the world's most densely populated areas, using 6,000 bombs in just six days. This scale of terror is hard to fathom, but here's the stark reality: Israel, backed by Western powers, dropped more bombs on Gaza's civilians in a week than the U.S.-led coalition did monthly against ISIS from 2014 to 2019 in Iraq and Syria. In a chilling comparison, Israel's week of bombings exceeded the U.S.'s year-long bombing campaign in Afghanistan. For this besieged population, there are no ambulances; Gazans transport their wounded loved ones to whatever functioning medical facilities remain, often in rundown vehicles, risking further harm. Precision in our words is vital; language has been weaponized to dehumanize and rationalize massive violence and ethnic cleansing. Language has also been stripped of its impact. Calls for empathy have yielded vague and disjointed responses from human rights advocates and celebrities, highlighting the limitations of identity politics. Human Rights Watch has confirmed that Israel used internationally banned white phosphorus in Gaza and Lebanon, a substance that causes excruciating burns and is often fatal. This is a clear war crime, and Israel's history of using it is well-documented. #newwaveglobal #israel #palestine #gaza
