It is known that throughout history human beings have practiced brutal acts against their own species in their lives for the purpose of abuse and humiliation, but sometimes their enemies were avenged even after their departure (by death).
By dominating their graves, exhuming them, and exhuming their bodies for purposes including healing, revenge and revenge for reasons including land conflict and religious reasons, in addition to seeking to erase the impact of their crime. Some researchers believe that exhuming graves has a psychological and social dimension in the laws of culture and war of any society.
How come all these goals and causes come together against a certain people, as happened and continues to happen with our Palestinian people? Here are the bodies of the martyrs in 2023-2024 in Gaza cemeteries that have not been spared from the hatred of the occupation soldiers.
There is no evidence of what spread from the videos filmed in the cemetery of Al-Tuffah neighborhood, where footage shows the devastation that pervaded the graves of the martyrs after the bodies were exhumed and uprooted in their shrouds amid piles of dirt, and others appear partially buried, between inverted tombstones where the traces of tank tracks and bulldozing operations.
One of those present at the cemetery said that the occupation had stolen a large number of bodies for reasons I had mentioned in a previous article.
Here, we wonder if the goal is to take revenge for what they tasted at the hands of the resistance in its ground battles with it. Or is it healing? Or revolt for those who died from the occupation soldiers? Or is it their creed?
It is worth mentioning that international law criminalizes the exhumation of graves, as the treaties of 1949 stipulated in their fourth article that the warring parties must ensure the burial of the dead in an honorable manner, and in their article 76 on prisoners of war stipulated that the warring parties must ensure the burial of prisoners who die in captivity in an honorable manner.
The First, Third and Fourth Geneva Conventions of 1949 stipulated that parties to the conflict must ensure that the dead are buried in a decent manner in accordance with their religious laws if possible and that their graves are respected.
What has the occupying power done? All customs, charters and laws have been thrown into disregard and committed deplorable things amid Western support and Arab silence.
Today, Gaza is an orphan fighting with its resistance countries that possess huge terraces, which have supplied the occupation state with thousands of rockets and forbidden bombs. And what next, O world, and for how long???
