A Comment on the ceasefire By Ramzy Baroud

Ramzy Baroud

A ceasefire in the Israeli genocide in Gaza has been formally declared. All of Israel's goals have been thwarted—no Nakba 2, no ethnic cleansing, no ending the Palestinian cause, no destroying the Resistance. Israel has learned that its military superiority, backed by the United States, can no longer guarantee victory or political outcomes. Palestinians—hungry, displaced, trapped, betrayed, and bleeding—have won against all Western arms concentrated in the hands of a brutal enemy that respects no laws and is bent on mass murder. This is the greatest defeat of Zionism since its inception, and the greatest defeat of imperialism in the Middle East since the signing of the Sykes-Picot Agreement in 1916.

What’s extraordinary is that this victory has been achieved by ordinary people, through their faith, persistence, resilience, and sumoud. We’ve lost more loved ones than I can count, many of whom have been decomposing in the rubble of Gaza for months. But in the end, their sacrifices have ignited hope that evil can be challenged and defeated. This is Gaza’s message to the world—and a gift to humanity. Please don’t squander it.

PEOPLE UNITED WILL NEVER BE DEFEATED. Let’s make this slogan a reality. We love you, Gaza. I’m sorry we failed you, and thank you for not failing us.
