Long live resistance.

Hundreds of Palestinians have been butchered, and thousands have been driven out of their homes. Yet there isn't a collective condemnation of the Palestinians' racial genocide, while partial condemnation though has got a corner in the news from a few states in the global south.

However, nothing has stopped Israel from their Hamas-based revenge costing the lives of innocent Palestinian civilians. Political scientists will call it a state behaviour based on national interests. Religious men see it through the lenses of history and are likely to be more extreme in their actions, had they been freed to do so. Just like a prominent historian Yuval Noah Harari, the liberal section of our country does see only one side of the picture and is flooded with accusations and condemnations over Hamas. The Western hemisphere's acolytes of liberty and freedom have tacitly denied any support to Palestinians' right to freedom and are at the forefront of the occupier Israel's defence. People across the world however do not see things from the state perspective and do not necessarily accede to the statements issued from the power corridors.

Despite the UK ban on the Palestinian flags and chants, people unwavering rallied to support Palestinians and their right to self-determination. The ethnic cleansing of the Palestinian Arabs has been condemned by Jews in the USA as well. Ironically the land of revolutions, France, too has banned pro-Palestinian rallies. The world's biggest secular democracy, India, is by no means lagging in anti-Palestinian propaganda.

The majority of the anti-Muslim and Islamophobic material on social media, according to the Islamic Council of Victoria report, is shared from India. Plenty of evidence is supportive of the right-wing Indian section negatively impacting the Palestinian plight.

The Islamophobic problem in India has increased manifold since the BJP under Narendra Modi has come into government. The IT cell, as Swati Chaturvedi puts in his book, I Am A Troll, has an army of volunteers who spread islamophobia and hatred. However, in the current escalation of the Palestine-Israel conflict social media has been drowned with disinformation spreading hatred and negativity about Palestinians.
