PNN – Antonio Guterres, who is now the key holder of the United Nations, has introduced Gaza as a “children’s cemetery”. Even today, if the hateful sounds of rockets and drones are silenced and everything returns to normal, Gaza still lacks the happy and hopeful voice of thousands of its children. The voice of children is a song of hope, just as the voice of adults is the voice of vengeance. History has taught us that the voice of hope is more lasting than the voice of revenge, even if it has armored and armed opponents. Gaza is now the second volume of the bitter book “Memories of Darkness” written by Zionist racists. The first volume was written by Nazi racists during World War II.
November 20, 2023 may not be the first time that the International Children’s Day is celebrated in a thick dust of naked violence, but it is certainly the saddest and most regrettable annual commemoration that is held for children, these beacons of hope and creativity. When 64 years ago, on November 20, 1959, the representatives of the world’s countries in the United Nations, happily and joyfully signed the Declaration of the Rights of the Child to testify to their duty to ensure the safety, health and well-being of children, no one thought that a day would come when on World Children’s Day, 120 children die daily under the whips of naked violence of the criminal state and become subjects of photographers’ photos on the hands of sad and hot mothers. Today, the Gaza Strip turned that bitter suspicion into an obvious reality even for the most late-believing world observers. This year, it is better to introduce to the world the International Day of Infanticide in memory of the oppressed children of Gaza!
Rewriting the memories of darkness
Now, outside the perfumed legal documents and polite international conventions and glossy global statements, children’s share of Israel’s terrible crimes in Gaza, 5000 thousand torn dead bodies, 500 thousand wounded without medicine and hospital, and more than 1350 bodies buried under the rubble of this helpless city and there is no hand to pull them out from under the hard and cement coils and bury them in marked graves.
Among the 13,000 victims who have been killed by the brutal attacks of Zionist racists in Gaza so far, more than a third of them are children. Also, if we add to the number of martyrs, the names of the children who were left under the rubble and are considered among the missing of the battle, that ratio will probably become one-half of the total number of martyrs instead of one-third. Will these dreamy and unbelievable figures be attached to those fragrant and polite and shiny documents so that it may be a lesson-learning and lasting appendix to the World Convention on the Rights of the Child?
An organization that wanted to turn the planet into a cradle of peace and hope under the protection of the Declaration and later the Convention on the Rights of the Child, now it can’t do anything other than to dust all that iron and concrete with a small handkerchief or with delicate and brittle nails scratch the stones and pillars.
The voice of children is a song of hope, just as the voice of adults is the voice of vengeance. History has taught us that the voice of hope is more lasting than the voice of revenge, even if it has armored and armed opponents. Gaza is now the second volume of the bitter book “Memories of Darkness” written by Zionist racists. The first volume was written by Nazi racists during World War II.

The most childish city in the world
Gaza is one of the most childish cities in the world; It is not only the “denseest” but also the youngest residential area in the world. Half of the population of 2,200,000 people in Gaza are under the age of 18, who are considered children according to the definition of the international convention. In this city with the most children in the world, more than 42% of deaths are related to those under 18 years old; A surprising and painful ratio that is probably not similar in any war.
Although children have given victims in all battles and wars, big and small, but the number of children’s casualties in Gaza is equal to the number of which war? Is it possible to find a war whose list of victims is so full of children and babies? Let’s look at some official statistics and then compare them with the number of children killed in Gaza.
– The United Nations announced in a report that 2021 was one of the most violent years in the world with 2,515 children killed in one year.
– UNICEF announced that almost 11 thousand children were killed or maimed in the war in Yemen from 2015 to 2022.
– The Children’s Aid Organization also said that during the 20 years of war in Afghanistan, about 33 thousand children were victims of war violence and joined the list of dead or disabled.
– In the Syrian war, which lasted for 10 years, a total of 27,200 children were sacrificed or suffered serious injuries.
– In the war in Ukraine, the number of child victims is less than 1000 people.
– Beside all these statistics, put the number of 11 thousand and 300 dead, injured and missing children in Gaza, which was recorded in only 44 days and it is not yet known how long it will continue.
Shouldn’t this unequal battle be considered a war between adults in boots and defenseless children? Isn’t the plan of the brutal Zionists revenge and the destruction of the future of the people of Gaza? Is it not genocide and ethnic cleansing? There is no one who does not know the answers. What cannot be destroyed in the meantime is the hope of wounded Palestinian children, who testify with bright and clear eyes that Gaza will survive under the protection of their imagination and dreams, and they will make the plateau of peace and olives fruitful again.
