It’s actually messed up how few people know about that shit, please look it up if you aren’t aware because it’s fucked and it deserves to be known
A poem from 2012 by the late Dr. Refaat Alareer – murdered by ‘Israel’ on Friday, December 8, 2023, that will absolutely mesmerize you: “I am you”
Two steps: one, two. Look in the mirror: The horror, the horror! The butt of your M-16 on my cheekbone The yellow patch it left The bullet-shaped scar expanding Like a swastika, Snaking across my face, The heartache flowing Out of my eyes dripping Out of my nostrils piercing My ears flooding The place. Like it did to you 70 years ago Or so.
I am just you. I am your past haunting Your present and your future. I strive like you did. I fight like you did. I resist like you resisted And for a moment, I’d take your tenacity As a model, Were you not holding The barrel of the gun Between my bleeding Eyes.
One. Two. The very same gun The very same bullet That had killed your Mom And killed your Dad Is being used, Against me, By you.
Mark this bullet and mark in your gun. If you sniff it, it has your and my blood. It has my present and your past. It has my present. It has your future. That’s why we are twins, Same life track Same weapon Same suffering Same facial expressions drawn On the face of the killer, Same everything Except that in your case The victim has evolved, backward, Into a victimizer. I tell you. I am you. Except that I am not the you of now.
I do not hate you. I want to help you stop hating And killing me. I tell you: The noise of your machine gun Renders you deaf The smell of the powder Beats that of my blood. The sparks disfigure My facial expressions. Would you stop shooting? For a moment? Would you?
All you have to do Is close your eyes (Seeing these days Blinds our hearts.) Close your eyes, tightly So that you can see In your mind’s eye. Then look into the mirror. One. Two. I am you. I am your past. And killing me, You kill you.

“If I came with a Bible in one hand and a rifle in the other, knocked on your door and said:
‘According to my Bible, my family lived in your home two thousand years ago.’
Would you pack up your bags and leave?”
what do you mean elon musk did a nazi salute on live tv at the united states presidential inauguration twice and is now erasing the evidence off the internet by replacing the footage with the crowd cheering instead?
would be a shame if people reblogged this, wouldn’t it?
Nelson Mandela was in USA's terror watchlist until *2008. The guy who fought against apartheid state of South Africa, won a Nobel peace prize, became a president, a beloved character across the globe was in the terror watchlist of USA. So I wouldn't actually take murica's opinion about labeling a person or group of people as terrorists. Chances are they're actually fighting for the freedom of their country.
That's why they call Hamas terrorists instead of freedom fighters. In their eyes The Nelson Mandela was a terrorist.
Anyways as Nelson Mandela said
Free Palestine 🇵🇸🍉
The thing I don't understand is when I say free Palestine, so many people think that means I hate the Israeli people. That I don't care if they die.
I care about the Israeli people.
I care about the Israeli hostages that were shot down by their own military.
I care about all Israeli hostages in general.
I care about the Israeli men being thrown in jail because they refuse to assist in the "war" around them.
I care about the Israeli people who don't support the genocide happening infront of their very eyes.
Even the Israeli people who do, I don't wish death upon them, or whatever hateful thing you think I do.
When I say free Palestine, I don't mean I hate the Israeli people.
When I say free Palestine, I mean Free Palestine
