In a blistering critique of global inaction, Iraqi Prime Minister Mohammed Shia’ al-Sudani has denounced the West’s "calculated indifference" toward the ongoing crisis in Gaza. Speaking with palpable anger, al-Sudani condemned what he described as a “genocidal war” being waged against Palestinians, highlighting the glaring double standards of Western powers.
“When it comes to Ukraine, the world is inundated with sanctions, support, and endless condemnations of aggression,” al-Sudani said. “But for Gaza? Silence, complicity, and excuses for Israel’s atrocities.”
The Iraqi premier’s remarks come as Gaza continues to face relentless bombardment, a deepening humanitarian crisis, and international inaction. Al-Sudani’s criticism centered on the West’s role in perpetuating the violence by shielding Israel from accountability while providing arms and political cover.
“This isn’t just a failure of diplomacy—it’s a moral collapse,” al-Sudani declared. “The so-called champions of democracy are enabling war crimes, all while preaching human rights elsewhere.”
Al-Sudani also warned that the ongoing aggression would have far-reaching consequences for regional stability. “Halting Israel’s military aggression is not just a moral imperative but a prerequisite for peace in the region,” he emphasized.
The Iraqi leader’s statement reflects growing frustration across the Arab world as Western governments continue to avoid meaningful action. While calls for ceasefires and international intervention mount, al-Sudani’s fiery words cut through the noise, demanding a reckoning for what he described as the West’s selective outrage and moral bankruptcy.
As Gaza’s plight worsens, al-Sudani’s call for justice may resonate far beyond Iraq, fueling global outrage and demands for accountability.
