In Israel’s colonial ethnic cleansing, the world fails stand for decolonisation |
From genocide in Gaza to the death penalty in the occupied West Bank, Israel seeks the annihilation of Palestinian resistance and, on a slower pace, further ethnic cleansing of the Palestinian people.
The latest statistics, which have been considered conservative estimates but continue to be shared as the officially recognised kill toll by the Palestinian health ministry, show that Israel killed 72,312 people and injured 172,134. By the end of 2025, Israel had killed 21,283 Palestinian children.
On Monday, the Israeli Knesset approved a bill that imposes the death penalty upon Palestinians convicted of killing Israelis. Jewish Israelis who kill Palestinians, however, will not share the same fate. In colonial logic, twisted as it is, the differentiation makes sense, for how would Israel have even been created had Zionism not allowed and planned for the killing of Palestinians? What Zionism achieved through its paramilitary terror, Israel now implements in legislation.
