The title at Israel’s liberal daily said this week clearly said: “The diplomatic tsunami is approaching,” warned, “as Europe is beginning to act against Israel’s” full madness “in Gaza.”

This week, the diplomatic attack has taken many forms, not all intended.

From an agreed international condemnation of Israel’s actions in Gaza, to the shocking murder of two young Israeli staff at the Embassy in Washington, it is that, to put it mildly, a tumultuous week for the Jewish state.

The waves began to crash on the shores of Israel on Monday night, when Britain, France and Canada issued a joint statement condemning their “outrageous” actions in Gaza.

All three warned of the possibility of “more specific specific actions” if Israel continued its updated military offensive and failed to raise restrictions on humanitarian aid.

They also threatened the “target sanctions” in response to Israel’s activities to settle the occupied West Bank.

A statement from 24 donors followed, condemning a new, supported model of Gaza’s assistance supported by Israel.

But it was just the beginning.

On Tuesday, Britain stopped commercial conversations with Israel and said a road card was reviewed for future cooperation in 2023.

The latest documentary “The Settlers” was imposed on a new circle of sanctions, a fresh circle of sanctions was imposed, including Daniela Weiss, a well -known figure who starred in Luis Theroux’s recent documentary.

Israel’s ambassador to London, Tzipi Hotovely, has been summoned to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, a move that is usually preserved for representatives of countries such as Russia and Iran.

In order to make things worse for Israel, EU foreign policy chief Kaja Kalas said that a “strong majority” of block members prefers to review the 25 -year association agreement with Israel.

“Enough is enough”

The reasons for this noise of diplomatic condemnation seemed clear enough.

Proof that Gaza was closer to the mass hunger than at any time since the beginning of the war, after Hamas’s attack in October 2023, he sends pulsations of horror around the world.

Israel’s military offensive and rhetoric around it suggested that the conditions of the affected area were about to deteriorate once more.

Turning to the MPs on Tuesday, the United Kingdom Foreign Minister David Lami separated the words of Israel’s hard -to -do Minister of Finance, a wretch, who speaks of Gaza’s “cleansing”, “destroying what remained” and relocating the civilian population to third parties.

“We have to call what it is,” Lamie said. “It’s extremism. It’s dangerous. It’s repelled. It’s monstrous. And I condemn it in the most powerful conditions.”

File is not a decision making when it comes to war in Gaza. So far, his ignition remarks may have been set on one side.

But these days they seem to be over. Properly or wrong, Israel’s Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is considered to be up to his extreme right colleagues. Critics accuse him of mercilessly pursuing war without taking into account the life of the Palestinian civilians or other Israeli hostages still in the gas.

Countries that have long supported Israel’s right to defend themselves are beginning to say that “enough is enough.”

This week was obviously an important point for Britain’s premiere Sir Kyar Starmer, an unwavering defender of Israel (he once said that “I support Zionism without qualification”), who is confronted with strong criticism from the Labor Party for his unwillingness to call for the end of the gaza.

On Tuesday, Sir Keyer said the suffering of innocent children in Gaza was “completely impatient”.

Before this unusually agreed actions by some of the strongest allies of his country, Netanyahu reacted furiously, suggesting that the United Kingdom, France and Canada were to blame for the support of Hamas.

“When the mass murderers, the rapists, the murderers of babies and the abductors thank you, you are on the wrong side of justice,” he published at X.

“You are on the wrong side of humanity and you are on the wrong side of history.”

Israeli Foreign Minister Gideon Saar went further, suggesting that there was a “direct line” between Israel’s critics, including Starmer, and the murder on Wednesday night of Yaron Lisinski and Sarah Lyn Milgrim, the two Israeli officials shot outside the Jewish Museum in Washington.

But despite the pouring of sympathy after the shooting, the Israeli government seems more and more isolated, with Western allies and prominent members of the Jewish diaspora, all expressing anger – and grief – during the war in Gaza.

Lord Levy, a former Middle East envoy and Tony Blair’s advisor, said he had approved the criticism of the current government, even suggests that they may have come “a little late”.

“In this country, there must be a position not only from us, but in the international terms, against what is happening in Gaza,” he told the BBC Radio 4 of the world in one, describing himself as “a very proud Jew … who passionately cares for Israel.”

But the silent one is the only person who can, if he wants, stop war.

At the end of his recent tour of Persian Gulf, Donald Trump said “many people are starving.”

White House officials said the US president was disappointed with the war and wanted the Israeli government to “end” it.

But while other Western leaders release expression of indignation, Trump says almost nothing.
