When the World Is Silent, Israel’s Hostages Cry in Darkness

Two years!

Think, for two years, your own children, your citizens should be locked in a dark tunnel. Neither sun, nor wind, nor human face. Just a shadow of fear, hunger and gun.

The video released by Hamas shows groan photos of Israeli hostages that are closed in inhuman conditions in Gaza tunnels. These pictures have shaken the hearts of not only Israel but also every sensitive person.

But the biggest question is – why is the world silent?

This is not war, it is terrorism

It should be made clear – this is not a normal warfare. This is a cruel conspiracy by terrorism to hold common citizens hostage. Among them are children, women, elderly – who had no military relations with Israel. These people are closed simply because they are Jews and are Israeli citizens.

They are being used by Hamas like a ‘human shield’ – which will neither solve this struggle nor peace.

Collapse of Geneva treaty

Inhuman behavior with Israeli hostages is an open violation of international laws. The Geneva Treaty clearly states that citizens will not be targeted in war. But in these tunnels, this treaty has become just a piece of paper.

The irony is that the world calls him “aggressive” when Israel takes military action, but when Hamas makes children and women hostage, the world performs duty by “appealing” peace.

Why does no one listen to the pain of Israel?

Every country is committed to protecting its citizens. If Israel takes steps to save its hostages, is it his crime?

The country whose rockets fall on the borders, whose citizens have been taken hostage without any mistake – keep tolerating only that country?

Israel’s action is only to protect its people and return the hostages. It has responsibility for its citizens, not hatred against any “religion” or “ideology”.

The world has to show face

The United Nations, Human Rights Organization, Global Forces – are silent even knowing everything. Is it because the victims are Jews? Is it because it is politically easy to question Israel?

If the hostage were Palestinian, it would have been the same news on every news channel. But when the hostage is Israeli, the world becomes silent in the name of “balance”.

The path of peace goes through the release of hostages

Israel’s hostage today is not just Israel’s symbol of the whole of humanity – their release will not only win a country, but it will show that the world has once again chosen humanity.

The first condition of peace is – these hostages should be released immediately.

The world should unite against terrorism, not stand with those who want to prove their purpose by taking children and women hostage.
