War has long been a tool for expanding geopolitical interests—particularly for Israel, a state surrounded by neighbours that have historically rejected its founding and its ideology as an Ethno state.
Bibi AKA Netanyahu, currently a sought out after politician against war crimes from the International Criminal Court, had been under legal scrutiny for his extremism well before the October 7 attacks , deliberately trembling democratic values.

For those paying attention, to Russia, to Ukraine, to Sudan, to Armenians , to China, to India, to Iranians even the refugees around the world who survived atrocities awaiting justice; the warning is clear: injustice anywhere sets the stage for erosion everywhere.
