The war in Gaza started 07/10/2023 and so far, it has not stopped. Children, women, men, and animals have not been able to live normally, and they live with the constant uncertainty of whether they will live the next day. More than 44 thousand people, of which 17,400 are children, have died, while the world watches. It is not easy to live in tents made of cloth, without food and clean water, for a year straight.
Water, especially within the West Bank and Gaza Strip, is hard to find and if you do find it, it will certainly not be suitable to drink. This is a clear violation of children’s right to access clean water and food.
If there are meant to be children’s rights, animal rights, and human rights in general, then the world must pay attention to what is happening to Palestinians. Every European citizen and United States citizen that values their own rights, must look at what is happening and realize how sacred human rights truly are, as something to never be taken for granted. The world needs to view the Palestinian children as if they are their own children. These children are meant to be dreaming about their futures and what they want to be when they grow up, but instead, they are struggling to survive in a war zone that they once called their home, while losing everyone they have ever known. They are losing their childhood because they are being deprived of their basic human rights.
The war must stop because in the end, very little is gained, and instead, innocent people end up losing the people they love.
Stop the war in Palestine!
