“Israel” is Digging its Own Grave, and the Ongoing Zionist Massacres in Gaza Only Hasten the Defeat of the Occupation

In his response to questions received by the Masar Badil, the Palestinian Alternative Revolutionary Path Movement, Khaled Barakat, member of the Executive Committee of the movement, said that “The genocide against the Palestinian people, particularly in the Gaza Strip, ongoing for over 21 months—including bombardment, starvation, and destruction—has failed to achieve its military and political objectives for the Zionist entity. Instead, it has deepened its global isolation and fueled waves of popular and official anger against the occupation. “Israel” is now headed toward a phase of self-destruction following its economic and political degradation,” Barakat said. “Its utter moral bankruptcy is now clear to all, and no propaganda campaigns will be able to restore illusions about the nature of the Zionist project as an illegitimate racist, aggressive and expansionist regime.”

“The enemy army is facing a strong, unified Palestinian resistance, ready to fight for many years if necessary,” Barakat emphasized. “The Palestinian resistance forces continue to bravely confront the occupation army using flexible, creative and courageous combat tactics across various fronts. They affirm their ability to continue this prolonged battle with their united will that transcends division, which creates the greatest fear for the enemy, as it will not succeed in breaking the unity of the internal front in the Gaza Strip.”

Barakat affirmed that “The real negotiations are taking place through fire in Khan Younis, Jabalia, and Beit Hanoun. Our people trust their resistance, which is waging a political battle in Doha despite all the pressures imposed upon them. They know that their representatives of the resistance will never accept terms of surrender imposed by the U.S. and the Zionist entity and are certain their trust and steadfastness will be rewarded.”

“The battlefield dictates the terms, and no matter how intense the political and regional pressures become, the resistance holds the initiative and negotiates from a position of strength, readiness to fight and sacrifice, backed by broad popular support inside and outside Palestine,” Barakat said.

“The resistance insists that any agreement must include a complete withdrawal of occupation forces from Gaza, the lifting of the siege, and the release of hundreds of leaders and cadres from the prisons of the occupier. Liberation movements and solidarity forces with the Palestinian people must escalate their support for the resistance’s position both on the ground and in the ongoing negotiations,” he emphasized, calling on movements around the world to heighten their actions and organizing at a critical moment for the Palestinian people confronting genocide.

“The Zionist enemy wants to eliminate the captured Zionist prisoners while keeping resistance leaders and Palestinian prisoners with high sentences behind bars,” Barakat said, noting that ‘Israeli’ officials have little interest in actually releasing the prisoners held by the resistance. “Every prisoner exchange negotiation exposes the enemy’s duplicity and its attempt to impose humiliating conditions. But the resistance knows the value of its cards and insists on the release of top leaders and national symbols, rejecting any deal that does not reflect a balance of deterrence and the stature of the resistance.”

In the West Bank, Barakat noted, “Settler paramilitary gangs are sponsored and given free rein to run amok, invading, assaulting and killing Palestinians while stealing their land. These vicious settler paramilitaries are fully supported and backed by the ongoing arrest and assassination raids of the Zionist military, the closures imposed throughout the West Bank, and the destruction of the refugee camps of Jenin, Tulkarem and Nour Shams.”

“As this destruction continues, the Palestinian Authority continues to market itself as a solution to the Israelis for the ‘day after’ in Gaza, despite the reality that the Zionist officials have repeatedly dismissed them. The Palestinian Authority in Ramallah is rejected by our people; the next day in Gaza belongs to the Palestinian people, not to any forces that collaborate with the occupation. The aftermath of the PA’s security coordination with ‘Israel’ is seen in the escalating destruction in the West Bank, while the PA continues to imprison and arrest resistance fighters and suppress all movements to confront the occupation. ‘Removing pretexts’ for the occupation has led to nothing but encouragement for the settlers to escalate their crimes,” Barakat said.

“The ‘Israeli’ enemy, backed by the Trump administration, has left our people with no other option than the path of resistance. In fact, the United States bears primary responsibility for the ongoing genocide in the Gaza Strip,” Barakat said. “From the launch of the ‘Deal of the Century’ to the complicity of successive U.S. administrations, Washington has played the most critical role in enabling ‘Israel’ to continue its crimes—not only through military aid but also through the political immunity imposed by U.S. imperialism, that prevents any real international accountability.”

“Every American missile dropped by Israeli warplanes on our people in Gaza causes a massacre. This Palestinian blood is on the hands of Trump and before him, Biden. And every American missile that does not explode is turned by the resistance into 100 explosive devices,” Barakat said. “While Gaza is being pounded by American ‘smart’ bombs, the resistance continues to recycle ammunition and turn it into tools of retaliation, reflecting a spirit of defiance and innovation in the face of the killing machine. This reality also exposes Washington’s complicity as a direct partner in the massacres.”

Barakat further noted that, “While U.S. imperialism has long sponsored and directed the Zionist project in the region in order to advance its goals and create a giant colonial military base in the heart of our region, the current U.S. position also reflects a level of complete submission on the part of the war criminal President Donald Trump, administration officials and members of Congress to Zionist lobby organizations and donors like Miriam Adelson.”

“Trump is merely a puppet in the hands of the Israeli lobby, manipulated by Zionist organizations as they please, reflecting a level of corruption that transcends even the traditional sponsorship of the Zionist entity. Today, U.S. political decision-making reflects imperialism in crisis and a flagrant disregard for even the interests of people in the United States, for the sole benefit of a colonial settler project imposed upon our region,” Barakat said.

“The United States and ‘Israel’ want to reshape the region under the slogan of a ‘New Middle East.’ But the truth is that the Middle East is changing in favor of the peoples, not the illegitimate regimes that Washington and Tel Aviv seek to entrench. Normalization with the Israeli enemy is now more distant than ever, despite all attempts to impose it with both hard and soft power alike,” Barakat said.

“The collapse of recent normalization projects and the rise of boycott and popular resistance movements—from the Gulf to the Maghreb—reflect a deep strategic shift in the consciousness of the peoples, who no longer accept that their region be managed by a disguised Zionist colonialism.”

In Lebanon, Barakat noted, “If Netanyahu’s claims about ‘humbling Hezbollah’ were true, why then is the U.S. State Department holding a meeting with 30 countries to discuss and coordinate to confront the growing capabilities of Hezbollah? This is the 14th such meeting since 2014. And why is northern Palestine still devoid of settlers to this day?”

“The glaring contradiction between the Zionist victory narrative and the facts on the ground reveals a crisis of confidence within the Israeli security establishment. Northern Palestine is militarily occupied but liberated from settlers by the deterrent power of Hezbollah and the ongoing confrontation on the Lebanese front, which gains more popular support with each new Zionist breach,” Barakat said.

Barakat further said that “Yemen’s military capabilities today are sufficient to burn all oil facilities in the region. Western companies sending ships to the ports of occupied Palestine must understand that Yemen is very serious about its anti-genocide blockade, and the positions and patience of the Yemeni people should not be tested. So long as this continues, a new phase of escalation is coming—and it will not be in Europe’s interest.”

“Sana’a is redrawing the boundaries of the struggle for sovereignty and liberation. What was once seen as a symbolic threat has become a field reality that disrupts the calculations of the West. If intransigence and Western support for the occupation continue, Yemen’s response will cross the seas, and Europe will pay the economic and political price for the crimes of imperialism,” Barakat said.
