The primary aim of this research is to critically examine the social, economic and humanitarian consequences of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict on Palestinian civilian life, particularly focusing on human rights and the access to resources. In addition, there could be added how the world is looking different to war regarding different folks of different culture, religion and ethical background. The objectives of the research are the following:
a) To explore the impact such a war can have on the global economy, especially though boycotting specific companies.
b) To evaluate the impacts of the conflict on Palestinian businesses, trade and employment opportunities.
c) To explore international efforts and potential resolutions, examining the challenges in achieving a peaceful solution.
This topic holds significant relevance due to the ongoing and escalated tensions in the region which could lead to severe destruction and the humanitarian implications for Palestinian civilians. This research seeks to provide an objective examination of the systemic impact of conflict on Palestinian communities and the barriers to peace. Furthermore, it shows how the Palestinian People were treated over the period of the illegal settlement, especially regarding the latest developments since October the 7th, and the double standards regarding Western Media.
