The Impact of the Conflict on Palestinians
The recent conflict in Palestine has had a devastating impact on the lives of Palestinians. Images and videos of children being pulled from the rubble have caused immense sorrow and highlighted the suffering of the Palestinian people. Israel's repeated bombing of hospitals and refugee camps has resulted in a staggering number of civilian deaths, especially among children. Despite this, the Biden administration has remained steadfast in its support for Israel, continuing to provide arms and refusing to condemn its actions. The scale of civilian casualties and the Biden administration's response have led to feelings of shame and a questioning of America's claimed moral superiority.
