The Palestinian Israeli Conflict, So Many Lives Lost Because Some are Trying to Influence the American Elections.

By Jumoke Ogbe

It is heartbreaking to see the amount of people that have lost their lives over this insane conflict between Israel and the Muslim community in the Middle East just to influence the American elections.

One important fact to take into consideration is that this conflict started almost a year ago on the 7^th of October. The principal actors in the conflict which are Israel, Palestine, Lebanon, Iran and possibly Russia who in recent years have become authoritarian or quasi authoritarian states are in a fight against democracy and their principal partner in this fight is Donald Trump.

They see the United States of America and its system of democracy as a stumbling block to their individual dream of world domination. Even the state of Israel which had previously prided itself as a beacon of democracy in the Middle East has been running a government that is tilted towards authoritarianism under its leader Benjamin Netanyahu.

The unifying factor for all these different players involved in the conflict is that they think they can influence the upcoming elections in the US. It is safe to assume that most of these players are rooting for a Trump win during the US elections. The reason the Israelis want Trump is obvious. Netanyahu shares the same world view as Trump. Right wing isolationist policies that are tilted towards the eradication of certain rules that guide against abuse of power by the center.

The intent is to cause as much chaos and strife in that region so that the American people will be disgruntled with the Biden administration and its policies. Donald Trump has said that he is the only one that can stop the conflict from day one. He sights the fact that there were no wars started by him while he was in office. All of this is a ruse though to get him back in power. A Donald Trump win will never stop the conflict in the middle East but will ensure that the Muslims are more determined than ever to oppose a Donald Trump government.

Perhaps Donald Trump will strike a deal with Putin on Iran and let Putin become the most powerful man in the world with the US doing whatever Putin wants. In any case, it will become the end of democracy as the world knows it if Kamala Harris does not win the next election.  The world will be divided among dictators, and it will be the beginning of a dark era for the world.

It is really appalling that the major players in this debacle do not care about the loss of innocent lives that have so far taken place. It is safe to assume that this was factored into the plan from the start. It shows the depravity of all those involved directly and indirectly.

The present US system of government is the only thing standing between the world and ultimate chaos. It is one of the few governments or systems of government that ensures the right of man and upholds the rule of law to its best ability. The US is one of the few societies that offers a fairness to every individual and gives everyone in the society the right to a better life. All of this is about to be lost to the Putins and Donald Trumps of the world.

It is shameful that it has come to this. No regard for the sanctity of human life and steering the world towards an era of chaos and debauchery.

This US election is the most important in our lifetime and will determine an era of continuous progress or an era that takes us backwards in all fields of human endeavor.

Everyone is advised to vote wisely. Vote for the continuation of the rule of law and for democracy.
