Nothing to say, yet
The speaker expresses the pain and outrage caused by the war on children and the lack of accountability for the genocide. They highlight how the world stood by while innocent lives were lost and cities were destroyed. Calls for a ceasefire were ignored, and the powerful defended the perpetrators. The speaker emphasizes the cries of the children and the devastation they witnessed. They mention the efforts of those in the West who protested for peace. The speaker also mentions a country that rose up against genocide and presented evidence in court. They condemn the denial of food, water, and medical supplies, resulting in thousands of deaths. The speaker concludes by stating that no apologies, reconciliation, or land recognition will be enough after such devastation. No apology for the war on children. No apologies will be accepted after the genocide. No reconciliation proclamation will be accepted for the hallowed graves. No land recognition will be accepted for we watched the cities crumbled, bodies bombed and babies died. The world was horrified, the world was outraged, but the powers that be stood complicit and defended the perpetrators saying they have a right. 120 countries voted in favor of a ceasefire. 14 countries voted against a ceasefire, while 45 countries abstained. And every call to stop the war, the world superpower vetoed the call. Ceasefire now, ceasefire now, ceasefire now, we called. But that call didn't start in the West. Those calls started when the babies were bombed from incubators, their fragile bodies hit the ground, and in their innocent voices, before life leave their soul, they cried, ceasefire now. It is the call of the children whose parents wrote their names on their legs and on their arms. They whispered in their mother's ears, why don't they ceasefire now? And so, those of us in the West heard the universal cry, and we took to the streets, ceasefire now. A land once lush and vibrant, now left desecrated and barren, no one came to the people's rescue, despite the call for peace. A people long forgotten, whose lives no one remembered. They too had been bombed, but they rose up in solidarity. They say stop the bombing or else your ships will not get by. And in their defense of the children's cry, they too were bombed. The superpowers that be released their might with the rule of international immorality, war. In their strength and bravery, a country once ruled under apartheid, they too rose up in defense and took to the court of justice the plight of genocide. Their arguments weren't just assertions, but filled with empirical facts. Let it be known to the court, Bibi has committed and is committing acts of genocide. They proved to the court how food, water and medical supplies has been denied. And with over 20,000 dead, this genocide must stop. This is a war on children, the once apartheid country cried. And even the use of a biblical ideology was used against the children's plight. Bibi commanded his army to rain down the wrath of Amalek on every man, woman and child. Now go and attack Amalek and utterly destroy all that they have. And do not spare them, but kill both man and woman, infant and nursing child, ox and sheep, camel and donkey. And with such a mighty command, the people continued to hear the terrifying sounds of war. No food, no water, no medical care. The babies journeyed through death and despair. No apologies will be accepted after the genocide. No reconciliation proclamation will be accepted for the hallowed graves. No land recognition will be accepted, for we watched the cities crumbled, bodies bombed and babies died. For more UN videos visit www.un.org
