Just yesterday, a pro-Israel journalist framed Iran’s weakening as a “strategic opportunity” for Turkey. Mere hours later, the assaults began. The machinery of opinion-making operates with the same systemic precision as the machinery of genocide.

The international carte blanche extended to Israel reveals a deeper truth: so-called Western civilization, long draped in the language of human rights functions in practice as a regime of selective ethics—where power dictates justice, and silence greets atrocity when committed by allies.

Yes, advocating for peace is a moral imperative. But when confronted with a state that enforces war through terror and systematic violence, the priority must be its international isolation, disarmament, and the imposition of severe political and legal consequences.
