Civil resistance for Palestine

For the past few weeks, Western capitals, metropolises, and cultural cities have been overflowing with extraordinary demonstrations in support of Palestine.

The Palestinian resistance has opened the door to all existing confrontations worldwide. It is no coincidence that the largest demonstrations are in Scotland and Ireland. Due to the ongoing anti-colonial sentiment and leftist influence in Latin American countries, conscientious individuals supporting Palestine are aware that they are also fighting against injustice.

In my article this Tuesday, I mentioned that the resistance initiated by HAMAS has turned into a step that will change the entire world. This perspective is not only my own; everyone seems to agree on this matter.

During the Cold War era, philosophers would analyze the course of events. However, in this era, individuals like a phenomenon, an anonymous youth, or intellectual figures like Bassam Yousef, asking simple questions, are guiding this process.

A 200-year-old hegemony and Zionism's century-long media and financial monopoly are sufficient to subdue humanity. The youth of the social media age did not undergo orthodox education like us; they think simply and are not easily deceived.

The suggestions of the United States cannot stop Netanyahu, who has assumed the identity of a "fierce new-generation Hitler." The atrocities have reached unimaginable proportions, surpassing the staged fight scenario. The escalation of violence, Israel's increasing difficulties, and, in the long run, the strengthening of Israel's control and administration by the Democratic administration in the U.S. may be possible. The Israeli prime minister seems to read the situation this way, stating in response to the reactions in the international arena: "I am not alone; I commit all these crimes in collaboration with the U.S.," reminding the public of a powerful accomplice.

Streets in the Far East are lively. There is significant movement in almost all EU countries. Pakistan, Egypt, Jordan, and North African countries are producing opposition upon opposition. Those who have an issue with the U.S., Western states, and the Zionist monopoly are coming forward worldwide. They want to listen to their consciences and see their unprecedented calculations.

Currently, there are no great thinkers to interpret all of this in our world. The academy needs to quickly adapt to this change because fundamental paradigms are changing drastically.

Despite being besieged by Zionism, leaders and administrations in Western countries, the streets are in rebellion, leading the way for change in the universe. In countries like Saudi Arabia, the people are sensitive, and the state administrations have an attitude like, "We were having such a good time, where did this HAMAS come from?"

In terms of reflecting the will of the people in governance, Türkiye is the most democratic country in the world. Erdogan's influential stance on Palestine, affecting all nations worldwide, is crucial. Efforts should be made to ensure that the effectiveness at the state level does not weaken the civilian domain. While the populations of states supporting Israel, conscientious individuals, resonate with "Free Palestine," our silence is not a good sign.

Democracy becomes stronger when the streets are active. Civil society organizations and unions supporting the government need to realize something. Western societies are taking action to set their states on the right path, influencing decision mechanisms. Our government is in a fair position. However, 100 years ago, there is turmoil in the lands our state separated from. In that case, our nation and civil society organizations should make an effort to make their voices heard worldwide.

Occasionally, civil demands and reactions may seem excessive. This is normal because people's sensitivities are very high. The state must continue to be fair, and the voice of civil society will become even louder.

While Erdogan has undertaken a mission that resonates worldwide, the fact that civil organizations in Türkiye are so subdued is not an acceptable situation. Civil organizations should proceed with the knowledge that today, the Zionist monopoly is being shaken to its core. In addition to having a share in this global change, it is necessary to inspire other nations, much like Erdogan.
