Diana Buttu examines why mounting global criticism of Israel's conduct in Gaza has not translated into concrete action to end the conflict, nearly three years into the war. Despite increasing international condemnation and Israel's growing diplomatic isolation, the military campaign continues without meaningful restraint, Buttu writes for Zeteo.
The commentary reflects frustration among observers who expected that external pressure—including public outcry, UN resolutions, and statements from governments worldwide—would compel a cessation of hostilities. Major powers have not imposed material consequences for the conduct, and enforcement mechanisms remain absent.
