Have you ever wondered what it's like to live under occupation, where the rule of law is replaced by the might of military force? Despite the International Court of Justice declaring Israel's presence in the occupied West Bank and East Jerusalem illegal on July 19, the situation on the ground has only worsened.

Why does this continue to happen? What drives the cycle of violence and despair in these territories? Let's delve into the heart of this matter.

In a chilling video that has gone viral, we witness an Israeli bulldozer carrying the bodies of Palestinians killed in a raid on the Tarim refugee camp. The family of 56-year-old Iman Salm cries over her body at the morgue, a悲剧 repeated far too often. The remnants of shops, businesses, homes, and one of the camp's main roads, destroyed by the Israeli military, paint a picture of desolation.

But it doesn't stop there. Settlers have set fire to Palestinian olive groves in the village of Borin, adding fuel to the flames of conflict. This chaotic, disturbing week is just a snapshot of the daily lives of those living under illegal occupation.

Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, who has received a red carpet welcome in the United States, has overseen an operation to expand Israeli control over the West Bank. Residents report that Israeli state violence has intensified, worsening with each passing week since the Hamas attack on southern Israel on October 7.

According to the IDF's own figures, since the beginning of the war on Gaza, more than 4,200 individuals have been arrested, 57 air strikes conducted in the occupied West Bank, and hundreds of "terrorists" killed. However, to many Palestinians, these so-called terrorists are resistance fighters exercising their legal right to battle an occupying power on their own land.

Israel claims that its nearly daily raids are necessary to capture and kill fighters from groups like Hamas and Islamic Jihad to keep Israelis safe. Critics, however, argue that these actions are a tactic to make life unbearable for Palestinians, displacing them to make way for more illegal settlements.

UN Chief Antonio Guterres has stated that Israel is changing the geography of the West Bank through land grabs and violence, driving a stake through the heart of any prospect for a two-state solution. Yet, despite the illegality of these actions, as established by one of the world's highest courts, the Israeli government seems to pay no heed.

So, what can we do? How can we break this cycle of violence and bring about peace and justice to the people of the West Bank? These are questions that demand our attention and action. The world watches, waiting for a change, hoping for a future where the rule of law prevails over military might.
