For western press, Palestinians are never children, even when are being genocided

The use of ‘minors’ here is deliberate. It is intended to obscure the moral horror over Israel killing, mutilating, starving, orphaning CHILDREN in Gaza.

Hope does not answer the question 'will things be okay'. Hope answers the question 'is it worth it?'

People ask me if I'm hopeful. Yes I am. Hope is not the same thing as optimism. Hope isn't the sense that things are going to improve. Hope is stubbornness. Hope says 'I will never give up, I will never stop trying'. Hope is the sense that some things are worth our life's work.

I'm with my family to be with my father in his last moments as he departs the world for the akhira. Ya rabb. Your prayers please.

I bookmarked this thread as a pretty thorough list of anti-Palestinian tropes.

From May 2019:

Patience and prayers.
واستعينوا بالصبر والصلاة

The White House, a majority of Congressional Democrats, and every single Republican owns this. Owns this barbarism and cruelty and heartlessness.

“We are about to witness the most intense famine since World War II in Gaza” theguardian.com/commentisfree/…

Graphic scenes: An Israeli army drone pursued four civilian youths who attempted to reach their destroyed homes and killed them with missiles in Khan Younis at the start of last February.

This is so far beyond the bounds of civilization. It's base, mechanized savagery.

As usual İyad el-Baghdadi | إياد البغدادي called it

For all the idiots that are claiming that what's happening in Gaza is not a genocide because some irrelevant chart shows that the population is increasing, read this 👇

What's shocking is taking a Facebook post written by him at the age of 18, & which ended with: 'I don't understand politics but felt the need to speak my mind'... & using it to shame him after surviving a genocide. Critique is important, & there are ethical ways to pursue that.

The senior policeman responsible for securing aid trucks & directing residents to stay away from Kuwaiti Junction was killed by Israel. The attack was justified by labeling him as a Senior Hamas operative, using words like “Hamas internal security”. ->

I need everyone, esp in academia, to watch this clip and understand what Maya Wind is saying when she says that Israeli universities are deeply complicit in the Gaza genocide. Hebrew Uni is helping define targets. Tel Aviv Uni is developing arguments against human rights.
