They say it's been a year. I have never understood the arrogant habit that Westerners have: even if the conflict lasts almost a century, we adapt the dates to our liking, giving away the importance we want. Has the last era been different for the Palestinians who are imprisoned on their territory? I find it hard to believe.

The deaths continue to increase, in the case of Ukraine, thanks to the slowness of those who tore the clothes. The lives of the Arabs are not worth so much, thousands of people will be left homeless and many others will have no room to return home. The stupids continue to regard the International Community as a calming force for genocide, which has not moved from words to deeds. When the war is over, Gaza, the largest prison in the world, will remain hell. So crude is the situation in which they live.

To what extent should it be asymmetrical so that a war can continue to be regarded as war? What we see every day in the news report is a massacre and, unfortunately, the media often shy away from the word, relentless with Putin’s Russia, but shameful with Israel. At the same time that the government of Benjamin Netanyahu consciously bombed schools and hospitals, the spectre of equidistance flooded society.

The arms businesses that demanded a cease-fire for the gallery had hidden themselves. Despite the announcement of the cessation of war exports, the Spanish Ministry of Defence sold almost EUR 1 million of ammunition to Israel since the beginning of the last conflict

On the other hand, the so-called "most progressive government" in Spanish history has recognised the sovereignty of the State of Palestine, which closed negotiations with Israel in secret. In other words, hiding that the arms businesses that demanded a cease-fire for the gallery are following their path. The news released a few months ago revealed that, despite the cessation of war exports, the Ministry of Defence sold almost EUR 1 million of ammunition to Israel since the beginning of the last conflict.

It is becoming increasingly clear that the price of deaths is set by citizens. Since morality is nothing more than a theatricality without content, politicians offer us the pantomime of empty gestures, facts separated from reality. How long are we going to resist the excesses of a state like Israel, in which the United States and the European Union are complicit?

More than 42,000 deaths (16,900 children, of whom about 700 are under one year of age). Nearly 100,000 people have been injured, as many have disappeared, 1.9 million have been displaced… 90% of the population of Gaza has fled to save their lives. Whenever exile is related to salvation.

The newspaper of genocide continues.
