Obama remains silent in response to Gaza genocide

During the presidential campaign, Obama made many promises to the people of his country and the world. He pledged to give strong support to efforts to establish peace in the Middle East. However, since the Zionist regime started its savage attacks on the Gaza strip, Obama has not uttered a word.

Obama’s silence can be interpreted as tacit approval of Israel’s attack on Gaza, given that he has repeatedly expressed support for Israel.

Doesn’t Obama hear the cries of the Palestinian children?

Meanwhile, the U.S. media have refused to show graphic images of the women and children who have been killed and maimed by the Israelis. They just repeatedly broadcast Israel’s announcements of its official position that it is only targeting Hamas strongholds. Maybe Obama only watches these programs and his response to reality is “silence”!

In order to justify his silence, Obama said that there is only one president at a time and that commenting on international events is the responsibility of current President George W. Bush.

Maybe it is a trick to evade a responsibility that would otherwise fall on his shoulders, but Obama’s strategy has cheered the hearts of the Zionists.

It is clear that Obama will never withdraw support for Israel and will never openly take the side of the Palestinians. Actually, this should never be expected from a U.S. president.

But perhaps Obama, who had been focused on the wars in Afghanistan and Iraq, was truly surprised that a new war had broken out in the Middle East.

Israel probably decided to start the war before Obama’s inauguration on January 20 because it was not sure that Obama would give his consent to the war.

The Zionist regime announced a ceasefire three days before Obama’s inauguration in line with the same strategy, although it has already violated the ceasefire several times.
