**RAMALLAH, PALESTINE** – A growing chorus of critics is accusing Western feminist movements of hypocrisy, highlighting their silence amidst the ongoing violence in Gaza. While vocal in their support for women’s rights globally, these movements have been notably absent in their condemnation of the humanitarian crisis and alleged genocide unfolding in the Palestinian territory, according to commentators Maryam Aldossari and Al Jazeera’s Hind Touissate. The silence, they argue, reveals a double standard and raises questions about the priorities and selectivity within the Western feminist movement. The situation underscores the need for a more consistent and inclusive approach to global women’s rights advocacy, the critics contend.
