Deafening silence of the world

However, the deafening silence by the world community is rather shameful and reprehensive. The champions of world human rights, the US and the UN, have astoundingly posed an unjustifiable stance by weighing in on their sympathies towards Israel. They have become oblivious to the harrowing philosophy of collective punishment and targeting of civilians in the name of retaliation.

A ceasefire is an essential need of the hour to stop the carnage.
