(MENAFN- Tribal News Network) Seema Saba

The Innocence of a Child:

No care of yesterday

And no worries about tomorrow.

Children are indeed the future of any country, and their well-being, health, and education are of utmost importance for the family and the nation. They are considered the real asset of the families and nations. It's heartening to see that children are the center of attention in almost every family, as their success and growth shape the future of the entire family.

Children are like flowers in so many ways. Just like flowers, children bring beauty, joy, and a sense of wonder into our lives. They bloom and grow with care and nurturing, just as flowers do. These angels are loved and cherished all around the globe, regardless of their religion, caste, color, or language. Love knows no boundaries, and children are a symbol of innocence and pure joy.

Every day, we put in a tremendous amount of effort to prioritize children. We talk about safeguarding them, addressing their educational and healthcare needs, and celebrating Children's Day with promises to shield them from harm. Countless organizations claim to work tirelessly for the well-being and protection of children worldwide. It's heartening to see such dedication and concern for the younger generation. But .................?

But why have we become so blind that we can't see the injustice happening around us? How have we become so blind that we can't see the tearful eyes of those millions of children who are waiting for the world for their help? How have we become deaf when we hear them crying louder than ever? The situation in Israel and Palestine is indeed heartbreaking, and the innocent children caught in the crossfire are truly angels whose lives have been tragically lost.

The land of Palestine has been stained with the blood of those angels, a stark reminder of the brutality of the conflict. It's important to raise awareness and stand against such barbarism, for as the saying goes,“The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is for good people to do nothing.”

It is heartbreaking and devastating to hear about the loss of so many innocent children every day. It truly tears at the heart and casts a heavy shadow over the atmosphere. The news of such tragedies can leave us feeling saddened and gloomy.

The situation faced by Palestinian children is deeply concerning. They are confined to their homes, many have lost their parents, and they are left homeless and psychologically affected. They are experiencing trauma, living in constant fear and insecurity. Their once joyful playgrounds have turned into battlefields, and their schools have been destroyed. Even hospitals, meant to be safe spaces, are no longer secure. The sounds of their laughter and play have been replaced by the devastating sound of blasts.

It's heartbreaking to see the lack of support for Palestinian children, especially considering the numerous well-known organizations that tirelessly work around the clock to protect and prioritize children's well-being. It begs the question: where are these organizations when it comes to standing up for the rights and safety of Palestinian children? It's saddening to witness humanity reaching such a low point where we fail to extend our support to those who need it the most.

It is indeed the need of the hour to wake up from our complacency and take practical steps to protect the innocent children of Palestine. It's time for us to open our eyes, raise our voices, and actively work towards ensuring their safety and well-being. Together, we can make a difference and bring hope to Palestine.

The world cannot afford to turn a blind eye any longer. The international community must rise above political considerations and prioritize the safety and well-being of children, regardless of their nationality. It is a moral imperative to speak out against the violence that claims the lives of innocent Palestinian children and to demand accountability for those responsible.

As we witness the silence from influential bodies, individuals must become the voice for those who cannot speak for themselves. Social media, grassroots movements, and community activism can amplify the call for justice and bring attention to the urgent need to protect Palestinian children from the horrors of war.

It is time to challenge the inertia that allows the suffering of Palestinian children to persist. The international community must demand accountability, engage in diplomatic efforts to bring about a lasting resolution to the conflict and ensure that the rights of these innocent children are upheld.
