The so-called U.S.-backed “ceasefire” in Gaza and the West Bank is not a path to peace — it is a political smokescreen for ongoing ethnic cleansing. As human rights advocate Sari Bashi warns, the world is being asked to applaud a pause in bombing while Israel continues to force Palestinians from their homes, restrict food and medical aid, and tighten the machinery of apartheid and mass displacement. A ceasefire that allows the perpetrator to continue the crime is not a ceasefire at all — it is complicity.
Washington cannot pretend neutrality while providing weapons, political cover, and diplomatic protection to a government that has already destroyed entire neighborhoods and displaced over a million civilians. The U.S. has a moral and legal obligation to stop assisting a campaign that violates international law, humanitarian norms, and the basic dignity of a trapped and terrorized population.
True peace requires accountability — not PR slogans, not staged pauses, not deals that leave Palestinians defenseless. The world must demand an immediate end to forced displacement, full access to humanitarian aid, and justice for the victims. Anything less makes the United States an active partner in one of the gravest human rights crimes of our time.
