The resolution appears one-sided, relying on false narratives that unfairly blame Israel in <br />the ongoing conflict. While acknowledging the tragic loss of life, it's essential to recognize the role of Hamas in initiating violence <br />against innocent civilians. This resolution does not contribute to promoting a better life for the people in Gaza, who have endured <br />nearly two decades of Hamas rule focused on a destructive campaign against Israel. Approving this biased resolution may <br />exacerbate tensions and contribute to an antisemitic atmosphere. I urge you to reflect on the moral and social implications of <br />supporting a resolution that aligns with lies and extreme hate. <br />1 <br />
