VIDEO | Discussing the repercussions of US-Israel-Iran War, Palestinian Ambassador to India Abdullah Abu Shawesh (@AM_Shawesh) says they are fully affected by this war likewise anyone. He says, "Indeed when you start by mentioning conflict this is not conflict this is a devastating war that was started by Israel and the United States of America against of course Iran. I'm not revealing a secret when I'm saying this issue and I'm not aligning myself with anyone of course, but this is the fact so that wording have a meaning. It's not conflict, it's an a war, and devastating war, and it already harvested approximately 170 Iranian student in an elementary school in Iran. So that is first. When it came to the Palestinian situation, now and how this war will affect the Palestinian, it's gonna affect them. It would not affect only the Palestinian, it will going to affect everyone worldwide, whom is benefiting from at least whom have a car or motorcycle. It will going to affect him in the long run. And I hope it will be ended very soon so that no one will be negatively affected. But when it came to the Palestinian issue, of course, all the eyes, right now is going to monitor and to follow what happened between Iran and the United States of America and Israel from the other side. And everyone is completely turning their back or semi-turning their back to the Palestinian question. This mean that we the Palestinian, or the devastating genocidal war that was started more than 880 days ago by the Israeli themselves on Gaza, which is still ongoing and when will take care about it. And the Israeli daily attack, terrorist attack by the Israeli Jewish settler on West Bank, it will be elaborated more and multiplied many times so that no one will going to cover it. So yes, we are fully affected by this war likewise anyone. And before we are, and even if we are not directly affected as a human being, we all should be affected by the war and by any innocent person who will lose his life." #Iran #IranIsraelWar #IranWar

#WATCH | Delhi: When asked if there is any road to peace in the region, Ambassador of Palestine to India, Abdullah Abu Shawesh says, "Absolutely. 100%...International law should be the basis for peace, the agreed resolution should be the basis for peace..."

#WATCH | Delhi: On Israel's attack on Hamas, Hezbollah in retaliation amid conflict with Iran, Ambassador of Palestine to India, Abdullah Abu Shawesh says, "We should differentiate between Hamas and the Israeli attack against Hezbollah, and the Israeli macro-war that is now against the Palestinian people. This war was not started just on October 7, as they would like us to believe. This war was started a long time before the establishment of the State of Israel when the Jewish terrorist gangs conducted a lot of massacres against the Palestinian people, even before the establishment of the State of Israel, just to remind you that 2 of the Israeli PMs - Menachem Begin and Yitzhak Shamir were wanted terrorists before 1940. So, when we say that Israel is attacking Hamas, this is to minimise the issue we all fall in in the Israeli propaganda and repeating it. Israel is attacking the entire Palestinian people...You cannot justify and say that Israel is attacking Hamas while Israel is the one who created and established Hamas...So, Israel is attacking Palestinian people at large and not Hamas..."

#WATCH | Delhi: On the US, Israel-Iran conflict, Ambassador of Palestine to India, Abdullah Abu Shawesh says, "...When you talk about our view as Palestinians, because we had been suffering from the wars and battles long time ago, we are totally against any war which erupts anywhere around the world. So, when it came to the current battle between the US and Israel from one side and Iran from the other side, we are completely against this war. It is reprehensible for us, as Palestinian, and it should be reprehensible for any human. But when it came to this issue, we could not isolate it as to what is happening right now between Iran and the Gulf States and Israel. We cannot isolate it from its root, which we as Palestinians take it back to November 2, 1970 by issuing Balfour Declaration - the war in the Middle East was declared at that exact day. We should analyse and discuss the battle that is going on right now and at a macro-level, it is related to the Middle East issue and in the centre of it is the Palestinian question."

Abdullah Mohammad A. Abushawesh, Ambassador of the State of Palestine to India argues that the Middle East does not suffer from a lack of resolutions, declarations, or legal frameworks but from their uneven enforcement. Until the international community confronts the reality of its own double standards, selective outrage will remain a defining feature of global politics. Abdullah M. A. Abushawesh (@AM_Shawesh) writes. Read the full story: buff.ly/ebdyyJ7 #Gaza #Palestine #Iran #Israel #Trump
