Gaza genocide and collapse of human conscience

Shame on silence, cowardice and betrayal of humanity

History will record this moment not as a triumph of civilization, but as its absolute moral collapse. In Gaza, more than 70,000 innocent human beings—the overwhelming majority women, mothers, pregnant women, and children—have been systematically annihilated. Their crime? Being born Palestinian. Their punishment? Death under rubble, starvation, and fire. And the world, with all its institutions, governments, and self-proclaimed guardians of humanity, stood by in silence.

Fractured fortress: Israel crumbling from within

TEHRAN – Israel often presents itself as a regional fortress, with its military active from Gaza to Lebanon, Syria, and Yemen, and in confrontations linked to Iran. From the outside, it seems untouchable, disciplined, and in control. But a closer look reveals that the walls are cracking. Every strike, every campaign is like a hammer blow against the world, yet the same blows reverberate inside, shaking Israel itself. The more Israel relies on force, the more the foundations beneath it weaken.
