The continued bombing of Gaza by Israel has sparked outrage in the world community. The United Nations officials and medical groups have reiterated the harrowing conditions in the Gaza Strip due to Israel's war on Hamas. The Council on American-Islamic Relations, the most significant U.S. Muslim civil rights and advocacy group, demanded international action to prevent starvation, disease, and genocide. Netanyahu's character traits are analyzed through his statements and comments published in the international news media during the seven months from October 7, 2023, the first day of Israel's military operation in Gaza, to April 7, 2024. Netanyahu has blamed Hamas for civilian deaths and claimed that civilians have been warned to leave Gaza and move to the South, which is called a safe zone. However, the military escalation in the South defied the reassurance people had received about moving south to be safe. Hospitals, mosques, churches, bakeries, and over 60 UNRWA buildings and schools have been hit across Gaza. Netanyahu's statements aimed to conceal his true motives. The contradiction between words and deeds is apparent. He says that they will never agree to a ceasefire and will continue their offensive to achieve their goals with minimal civilian casualties. However, Israeli attacks broadcast live on television always target civilian settlements. Netanyahu's goal is to confine the Palestinian people to a narrow area in the south, leaving them with no place to go. The international community has criticized Netanyahu's actions, and demonstrations against Israel are taking place worldwide. The perceived recklessness has marred his career, and Netanyahu's political narrative is scrutinized to analyze his character traits. Diplomatic sources say that Netanyahu's statements are far from convincing. The international community demands a solution to the conflict, and Netanyahu's actions are not helping to achieve peace. The situation in Gaza remains dire, and the world community is watching closely, hoping for a peaceful resolution.
