There is no doubt that the proud Gaza will be at the forefront of the scene in the year 2024, as it was since the glorious seventh day of October. Gaza will be the symbol of the massive change in the world order which has already started taking shape. America and its allies will suffer a terrible defeat sooner rather than later, as will the occupying state. The occupation is tasting bitter defeat, one after another, because of the “Flood of Al-Aqsa.” It will not stop, even if the brutal Israeli aggression stops. This Flood will continue to sweep away everything which hinders the path of truth and its victory. It has become impossible to turn the clock back. The hour of the victory began at six in the morning on October 7.
In 2024, victory will be written for Palestine. The occupation will be defeated, and its humiliating losses will continue. The heads of its demons, Netanyahu, Galant, Ben Gvir and other criminal Zionists, the killers of children and women, those who did not hesitate to bomb every inch of Gaza and carried out the most brutal genocide in history, will be beaten. In the new year, we rejoice in the start of the prosecution of the occupation for war crimes committed by the Zionist forces in Gaza. We hope that Joe Biden and everyone who financed and armed the Zionist entity and helped it drop tens of thousands of tons of explosives on a limited area not exceeding 360 square kilometres will share the defeat.
The year 2024 will mark the change in the current unjust world order, led by the United States which has subjected the United Nations and its UN Security Council. This is an order which has proven its failure in performing its assigned duty. We want the new year to be the beginning of the birth of a new order which is not controlled by arms factories and sales for military equipment and arsenals which have been fuelling wars and sipping the blood of innocents to serve certain economies. Is there anything less despicable than what America is doing to protect Israel and encourage it to annihilate the Palestinian people?
2024 is the year of positive change and uprisings around the world. This will be the year of free social movements which will erupt everywhere in protest against killings and in rejection of greed, and in opposition to the loss of hope in building a compassionate human society which protects the weak and prevents the strong from blind oppression. Despite the brutality which we witness day and night, and notwithstanding the pain which is wrenching in our hearts, we are completely certain that clear victory is near, and that the downfall of the oppressors is only a matter of time. The sun of truth never sets, even if it is obscured by the clouds of falsehood. The victory is coming no matter how late it is. We will raise the banner of victory in every corner of the free world.
