The United States, by providing nearly two-thirds of Israel’s weaponry, is far more than a mere arms vendor; it plays a central role in arming, training, and transferring advanced military technologies to the Zionist regime. Such broad-based support makes possible the continuation of genocidal operations in Gaza and the suppression of the Palestinian people, while entrenching human rights violations on a vast scale. With this policy, America not only forms the backbone of Israel’s military power but also guarantees its leverage in the regime’s strategic decision-making.
Europe: Facilitator of Aggression and Political Silence
Germany and Italy, with a combined share of 31 percent, hold a significant role in Israel’s arms supply chain. Germany, mainly through the provision of advanced defensive and missile technologies, and Italy, through limited participation, in practice pave the way for Israel’s continued assaults on Palestine, Lebanon, Syria, Yemen and Iran. This European support, despite its technical and military appearance, conveys a clear message: Israel’s security takes precedence over human rights and regional stability.
Disastrous Regional Consequences
Israel’s dependence on the West carries far-reaching humanitarian and security consequences. Any reinforcement of its arsenal enables the Zionist regime to pursue the claim of “Greater Israel” and to continue its aggressions against neighboring countries. The Middle East is exposed to an intensification of the arms race and the deepening of humanitarian crises; the bombing of civilians and genocide in Gaza are only one part of this troubling equation.
Urgent Need to Rethink Arms Policies
The ongoing, uninterrupted flow of weapons to Israel by the United States and Europe is a blatant betrayal of human rights and an unprecedented threat to the security and stability of the Middle East. Any delay in halting or restricting these sales translates into more bloodshed of children and civilians in Gaza, the bombardment of Lebanon, and a direct threat to Iran. By turning a blind eye to the catastrophic consequences of their actions, the West has become a direct partner in Israel’s genocide and aggressions, and must immediately assume its moral and historical responsibility.
