**Important article** To those who look at Gaza’s children and do not see their own, this future will be yours too: ‘Raw, random and very violent force’ will be the norm. Historian who has been in Gaza recently (HAARETZ): ‘“A wasteland like this will make us forget that Gaza was for thousands of years an oasis…. Now I understand why Israel is denying the international press access to such an appalling scene”… “Death in Gaza is illogical," Filiu writes, noting that anyone can die at any moment from anything and from any situation, and the difference between life and death is completely random. Small decisions, made inadvertently – whether to go there or here, whether to stand here or somewhere else, whether to sleep now or later – determine who will live and who will die..’ The most distressing has been the complete breakdown of a society that functioned on the extended family - orphans abandoned in what is left of hospitals. ‘perhaps the most appalling conclusion from Filiu's experiences is that Gaza is the "laboratory of the future." "This is not a regional conflict, it's a glimpse into tomorrow," he says.. "Maybe we think that we see the boys and girls of 4 years old being killed [in Gaza] by the bomb or being killed at the hospital because it's not a hospital anymore. It's not our business," Guardiola said, upon receiving an honorary doctorate from the University of Manchester. "But be careful. The next one will be ours. The next 4- or 5-year-old kids will be ours. Sorry, but I see my kids when I wake up every morning since the nightmare started with the infants in Gaza. And I'm so scared." he saw in Gaza a place where "international law, basic human rights, the Geneva Convention, the attitude toward human rights – all are being tossed aside without hesitation and being supplanted by raw, random and very violent force." The "Gazan monster," he warns, will not be contained within fences but will spill out across the globe. "It is threatening the whole world in a very basic and very immediate way." archive.is/2025.07.06-080
