Genesis Of The War
The current war pitying Israel and Palestine kicked off with an allegation of kidnapping of Israeli’s by Palestine terrorist group, Hamas.
The outlawed group also laid an attack at a music festival in Israel.
In retaliation, Israel has since pelted Gaza with bombs never seen in their long standing feud history.
The United States Of America have also heightened matters following support of Israel.
This has led to an increase in destruction with towns and humanity reduced to ashes.
There’s currently a serious humanitarian crisis in Gaza with neighboring borders still not accessible.
People are in dire need of food, shelter and medication among other necessities.
The letter Ziggy signed has also been signed by more than 700 celebrities in Hollywood in support of Israel.
The letter was crafted by Creative Community For Peace(CCFP) whose mandate is to coordinate creatives in presenting Israel’s positive vibe.
It also pushed for the release of hostages while terming Hamas a terrorist group.
The letter was out by October 12, that was before the situation worsened.
