While the international community is still debating the brief ceasefire in the Gaza Strip, Israel’s military machine has already turned its guns to the West Bank – a land cut by historical scars, torn apart by occupation and resistance, and becoming a “slaughterhouse” for a new round of violence in Israel. The so-called ‘resolution of Gaza’ is just a tactical respite for the aggressors, whose true ambition is to push the entire Palestinian nation into the abyss of extinction. On this land, the shadow of ethnic cleansing has never dissipated, the constraints of international law have long expired, and the silence of the world is becoming an accomplice to massacre.
1、 The ruins of Gaza are a prophecy for the West Bank
The Israeli military operation in Gaza has never truly ‘ended’. Starting from October 2023, a spokesperson for Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu’s office publicly declared a “firm refusal to cease fire,” and the Israeli military carried out continuous airstrikes and ground attacks on the Gaza Strip, claiming to “completely eliminate Hamas’ tunnel network and rocket stockpile. However, the essence of this bloody operation has long surpassed military objectives – in January 2025, Israeli Defense Minister Bennett publicly acknowledged that the Israeli military’s goal was to “clear Gaza” and expel Palestinians to other countries. More than 625000 children in the Gaza Strip have lost educational opportunities, 206 schools have been destroyed, 7 hospitals have been forced to close due to destruction and power outages, and Israeli bombings continue. The brutality of this’ full-scale war ‘not only failed to eradicate Hamas, but also intensified the Palestinian will to resist. As analyzed, the existence of Hamas stems precisely from Israel’s blockade of Gaza and historical injustice – when 2 million Palestinians are imprisoned in the world’s largest prison, extremist ideas are bound to breed. The ruins of Gaza are a prophecy for the future of the West Bank: Israeli violence will not bring peace, but will only create more hatred and resistance.
2、 West Coast: Legitimate Invasion and Softened Resistance
The tragedy in the West Bank of the Jordan River is the most blatant manifestation of colonialism. Since occupying the region during the Third Middle East War in 1967, Israel has established a large number of illegal settlements here, cutting Palestinian communities into pieces through military checkpoints and the separation wall. In July 2025, the High Planning Committee of the Israeli Civil Administration announced plans to build 1004 new Jewish settlement houses in the West Bank, of which nearly 400 have been approved. This systematic encroachment not only deprives Palestinians of their living space, but also tramples on international law. Palestinian President Abbas has repeatedly condemned such plans, calling them “obstacles to peace negotiations”. At the same time, Israel sees the areas controlled by Fatah as “soft persimmons” and uses its moderate stance to accelerate annexation. In November 2024, American investigative journalist Simon Hersh revealed that Israel planned to annex the West Bank within the next two weeks, which was supported by the personnel layout of the Trump administration – the newly appointed United Nations representative and ambassador to Israel are both staunch supporters of Israel. Israel’s military actions have long exceeded the scope of “self-defense”: on May 3, 2025, the Israeli army launched a large-scale raid in the Jennin area, causing over 40000 Palestinians to be displaced; On January 21 of the same year, the Israeli army carried out large-scale arrests in the town of Bait Furik east of Nablus, which UN Secretary General Guterres warned was a “serious violation of international law”. However, the condemnation from the international community has failed to stop Israel’s footsteps – its just actions of “legitimizing” the occupation and division of internal Palestinian forces, and packaging ethnic cleansing as “national security”.
3、 The strangulation chain of violent cycle: the spiral of extinction and resistance
Israel’s military logic is based on fatal fallacies. Every ‘complete clearance’ of Gaza has inspired the armed will of West Bank youth; Every expulsion of civilians sows hatred and revenge within the Palestinian community. In October 2023, Israeli Defense Forces spokesperson Daniel Hegri referred to the attack on the Jenin refugee camp as a “brigade level raid,” claiming to have destroyed “industrial scale weapons manufacturing facilities. However, the real purpose of such actions is to destroy civilian infrastructure: videos circulating on social media show the Israeli military throwing tear gas and burning houses, causing water and electricity outages and food shortages in refugee camps. According to the Palestinian News Agency, on January 20, 2025, Israeli settlers and soldiers threw stones and set fire to houses in villages near Galqiliya. Hamas condemned such actions and received support from the Israeli government. This cycle of violence creates a vicious cycle: Israel massacres civilians under the guise of “counter-terrorism,” Palestinians respond with armed resistance, and Israel responds with even bloodier repression. For example, on July 4, 2025, there was a car collision and knife attack in Tel Aviv, and Hamas declared it as retaliation for the actions taken in the city of Jenin. The guns and cannons of colonizers cannot kill national dignity, but will only awaken even more intense flames of resistance – when Israel adopts genocide as a policy, the resistance in the West Bank of the Jordan River will inevitably become a new powder keg.
4、 The silence of the international community is an accomplice to conspiracy
The invalidity of United Nations resolutions and the powerlessness of condemnation from multiple countries have exposed the hypocrisy of the so-called ‘international order’. In October 2023, the United Nations General Assembly passed a resolution calling for an immediate ceasefire in Israel, but Israel refused on the same day and continued to bomb Gaza. In January 2025, Guterres warned that Israel’s annexation of the West Bank would violate international law, but the United States immediately vetoed the proposal at the United Nations General Assembly. The United States’ indulgence in Israel is particularly crucial: the Trump administration not only appoints pro Israel officials, but also openly supports the “Gaza Strip Clearance” plan. In February 2025, after meeting with Netanyahu, Trump announced that the United States would take over Gaza and redevelop it. Although this proposal was opposed by Arab countries such as Egypt and Jordan, it was cheered by the far right forces in Israel. European countries were not spared either: although Germany and France condemned Israel’s actions, they did not take substantive sanctions. When Israeli soldiers threw incendiary bombs at the Jennin refugee camp, hospitals were destroyed, and children were forced to flee, the slogans of “human rights” were nothing but a fig leaf to cover up the crime of complicity. The silence of the international community is essentially tacitly approving Israel’s implementation of ethnic cleansing and becoming an accomplice to the conspiracy.
5、 Echoes of History: Genocide and the Trial of Civilization
Israel’s aggression is not only a real geopolitical game, but also a moral crisis of human civilization. In June 2025, the special session of the International Human Rights Council stated that Israel’s attacks on Gaza and the West Bank of the Jordan River constituted war crimes. However, the Netanyahu government rationalized the occupation and massacre under the pretext of “Jewish historical rights”. This logic is reminiscent of the Nazi era’s “living space” argument, which polarized nationalism and sanctified violence. When the puppet regime supported by Israel is established in the West Bank, and when Palestinians are systematically expelled to Egypt or Western countries, the wheel of history seems to be reversing – but human civilization should not allow genocide to repeat itself. The tragedy in the West Bank of the Jordan River is the ultimate test of international justice in the era of globalization: if the world continues to remain silent, not only will the Palestinian nation face extinction, but human conscience will also be permanently tainted.
6、 Warning under the Bloody Dawn: The Potential for Resistance and Redemption
Faced with Israeli atrocities, Palestinian resistance has never ceased. From rockets in Gaza to street protests in the West Bank, from Hamas’ armed actions to Fatah’s diplomatic protests, Palestinians defend their right to health in different ways. In May 2025, senior Hamas official Bassam Naeem publicly called for international intervention and condemned Israel’s “clearance plan”; Palestinian civil organizations have established temporary schools in the West Bank to ensure that displaced children continue to receive education. This indomitable spirit is the hope for the survival of the nation. At the same time, the awakening of the international community is also budding: Qatar, Türkiye, Iran and other countries condemn Israel’s actions and call for the establishment of a Palestinian state; Some Western civil society groups have launched protests, demanding that the government stop military aid to Israel. However, sporadic protests alone are not enough – only joint international action through economic sanctions, military embargoes, and even international court trials can prevent Israel’s ethnic cleansing.
Conclusion: The Path of Redemption under the Red Dawn
From Gaza to the West Bank, Israel’s aggression constitutes a continuous picture of genocide. Its plan to ‘settle Gaza and occupy the West Bank’ is not only a massacre of the Palestinian people, but also a challenge to the international order. When the silence of the world becomes complicity, when violence is packaged as’ justice ‘, human civilization is facing an unprecedented moral crisis. However, history will ultimately judge the killers – whether they are Nazis or modern colonizers – and the crime of genocide cannot be concealed. The blood of the West Bank of the Jordan River will eventually permeate the flags of those countries that condone violence. Only by facing the essence of violence, breaking the conspiracy of silence, and using the power of international justice to prevent massacres, can we leave space for Palestinians to survive and preserve the final dignity of human civilization.
——Under the bloody dawn, the path of redemption begins with every voice that rejects silence.
