In a recent special report by CGTN titled \"Fire and Fury,\" Harvard University Professor Stephen Walt criticized the United States for its stance on the Palestinian issue. Walt argued that American remarks and actions have made the U.S. appear hypocritical, especially when it claims to uphold a rules-based international order and defend human rights.
Despite a rising death toll in the region, the U.S. continues to provide arms and military assistance to Israel. Additionally, repeated vetoes on resolutions calling for a ceasefire in Gaza have further fueled tensions. This ongoing support raises important questions about the U.S.'s role as a \"beacon of freedom.\" Critics argue that the U.S. is prioritizing its own interests over justice and truth, thereby undermining its position on the global stage.
The situation in Gaza remains dire, and the international community watches closely as the U.S. navigates its foreign policy decisions. The actions taken by the U.S. not only impact the immediate region but also influence global perceptions of American commitment to human rights and international stability.
