What should Israel expect now?

Today is December 12, 2023, marking the 66th day of the 'Gaza Genocide.' The number of civilians killed has reached 20,000, including over 8,000 children. The relentless airstrikes by Israel have left nearly 50,000 buildings completely destroyed. It is known that among the debris lie the bodies of thousands of civilians. Gaza reeks of death, and there is no space left to bury the dead.

Like everyone else, we watch Gaza with 8 billion eyes. The question 'What can we do?' is long outdated. We understand and confront our helplessness. However, this is exactly what Israel wants. It aims to kill us while we are alive, condemning us to helplessness. As mentioned in a previous article, 'Gaza has become our breaking point,' and Israel is exerting pressure on humanity with all its might.

If we succumb to the psychological pressure upon us and continue this way, we will turn into depleted, reflex-weakened societies that cannot yield results from their attempts.

While bombing Gaza, Israel is slowly killing its viewers as well. Since the genocide, we, the survivors, are also under attack. So, what will we do? I have been questioning for days. I think about journalism with a curse. The phrase attributed to the late Prime Minister Necmettin Erbakan, 'Israel does not understand words. Israel only understands strength,' stands true today. We must be clear; Israel does not understand words. As a cruel state that shuts its ears to the whole world, Israel, with all its might, is destroying Gaza. And we are sure that Israel only understands strength. Israel can only be stopped by a force. But what we have seen is that such a force truly does not exist. Or the rest of the world does not see that power in itself.

With Israel possessing nuclear weapons, it has been suggested through figures like Noah Harari that it could engage in such a horrific massacre. Erdogan seems to be the only leader who, by saying, 'Hey Israel, you have atomic bombs, nuclear bombs, and you're threatening with them,' draws attention to Israel's true intentions.

Humanity is hitting a wall of fear. We need to overcome this wall. We must face Israel with a determination that condemns the killer, barbaric Israel, and its supporters every second, every moment in the near and distant future. Everyone who chooses the shamelessness of 'remaining neutral' while babies are being killed in Gaza should know they will get their share in such an atmosphere.

Israel and America find themselves in a period where they perceive themselves as the most powerful, but, in fact, they are poisoning themselves. They will make mistakes and commit greater crimes against humanity. They will lose supporters and gain new enemies, civil, honorable enemies.

Killing babies in Gaza cannot be justified or defended. With the awareness that there is no excuse for genocide, and the determination that apologies for killing babies will never be accepted, we must make life a prison for anyone who embraces and supports Israel and Zionist thought.

There will be those who ask 'How will this be done?' The answer is within us. First and foremost, we must be braver now. We should start by breaking down existing Israel-supportive, loyal, dependent structures and building better ones in their place in the fields of ideas, arts, and literature. We must build awareness by producing films, books, documentaries. As people, we must go beyond just talking and arguing, producing solid arguments and daring to confront Israel. Gaza has been enduring genocide for 63 days, but these days should never be left behind.

In conclusion, I will present an idea that has been on my mind for days: Establishing a 'Gaza Genocide Museum' in Istanbul to narrate and portray the experiences in Gaza in all dimensions. It should be brought to the agenda, and the work should be announced. As civilians, only by doing so can we stand up to Israel's power of shaping public opinion and influencing with information. There are undoubtedly mistakes and shortcomings; please help complete them.
