Ramadan is coming up and I can’t stress enough how much Palestinians have never got the chance to experience one normal Ramadan for 75years

You may not have been subjected to this, but as a person from an Arabic country, every Ramadan from every year there’s always headlines of Israeli iof soldiers or Israeli extremist settlers attacking Palestinians during Ramadan, especially Palestinian worshipers trying to pray in the al aqsa mosque

It’s happens almost every single year

Ramadan is suppoused to be Muslim people’s month of worship, of Baraka and it is very important to Muslim people

But Palestinians never ever experienced a normal Ramadan because Israel attacks them Viciously

Almost

Every

Single

Fucking

Year

And I will dare and say that Israel does it on purpose, it does it every Ramadan on purpose

And now, this year, with Ramadan being only a few weeks away, I doubt that they’ll have a normal Ramadan, not in the West Bank, and not in Gaza

All what I have to say here is that Israel will still follow this trend, something bad is gonna happen this Ramadan, keep an eye on Palestine during Ramadan

in light of israel's looming invasion on rafah, south africa implored the icj to call for the protection of palestinians with new preliminary orders. the icj denied this request, insisting that its january orders would be sufficient enough in ensuring the safety of people residing in rafah.

we have all seen how israel responded to the icj verdict earlier this month. they have all but intensified their attacks on palestinians, their favorite of whom seem to be children. this will end in a bloodbath. palestinians, already malnourished and living in literal tents, will be bombarded, they will be shot, they will be slaughtered. and when i say palestinians, a lot of them are actual toddlers. the videos coming out of this are proof enough.

at this point, it has been made amply clear that palestinians will never experience safety in their own homeland. a lot of the families in gaza are trying to raise funds to get out of it, because there's nowhere left to go.

there is nowhere left to go. if these people don't get the funds necessary to escape, they will die.

it's vital that you go to operation olive branch's spreadsheet, choose a family that resonates with you, and donate as much as you can to their gofundme. every last dollar counts. one dollar could be the difference between life and death for a family. please don't fall victim to the bystander effect. your contribution counts, however little it may be. and whether you're able to donate or not, spread this to as many people as you can. each second we stay silent is a second an entire family is brutally massacred.

"photograph of a young palestinian girl flying her kite on al-waha beach, gaza, 2011. on this day, 6,200 palestinian children filled the gaza sky with kites, achieving the guinness world record for most kites flown simultaneously. the culture of kite flying amongst gaza youth remains a symbol of resilience, creativity, and joy. over the past 7 weeks, the amount of children killed by the israeli state has nearly surpassed this number, continuing to rise each day. we must continue calling for a permanent ceasefire now. the devastation must end" — via @azeemamag on instagram

This is Rafah, The "safe" zone, where 1.5 million Palestinian fled to. You have to understand, what bombing Rafah means.

Please don't look away, while everybody is busy watching the super bowl, Israel commits one of its most deadly and openly genocidal attacks on Rafah. Please don't look away.

I'm never forgetting the Palestinian babies that were left to starve to death then rot in their beds by the IOF.

I'm never forgetting the Palestinian doctors surrounded by bodies of dead children begging the world to stop the slaughter.

I'm never forgetting the Palestinian children who held a press conference in English to beg the world to stop murdering them because they want to live.

I'm never forgetting the Palestinian Priest who said "We will not accept your apology after the genocide" to the world.

I'm never forgetting the Palestinian Imam who used the speakers of the Mosque, not to call people to prayer but to call out to God while the world around them was burning from American supplied Israeli bombs.

I'm never forgetting the grandfather who held his dead grandchild in his arms. Or the father carrying the remains of his two children in plastic shopping bags. Or the mother holding her dead child in a shroud. Or the father sitting among the rubble after he lost his whole family. Or the girl trapped under a broken building begging for people to save her family first. Or the boy who cried when he saw his brother alive. Or the girl who asked if she was still alive after being pulled from the rubble. Or the boy who carried the remains of his brother in his backpack. Or the old man the IOF used for a photoshoot before they shot him dead after getting pictures. Or the little boy wearing plastic gloves to pick up the remains of his family. Or the graves desecrated. Or the body of that small baby girl left alone in a tent because no one knew who she was or if her family was alive, small and alone and not one person who knew her name to bury her. Or the young boy who was shot in the street while his sister watched from the window. Or the men and boys who were stripped naked in winter. Or those tortured. Or those made to stand in open graves. Or the people who were raped by IOF soldiers. Or Palestinian workers kidnapped by the IOF and then labeled with wristbands, each one reduced to a number, then made to walk back to Gaza to be killed in the world's largest open air concentration camp. Or the people of Gaza starving because Israeli Zionists are blocking aid trucks. Or the Israelis dancing and celebrating the death of Palestinians. Or the lies spread by Zionists and their supporters. Or the people profiting off the oppression and deaths of Palestinians. Or the people of the West Bank being killed or kidnapped by the IOF. Or old woman who was older than the creation of the terror state of "Israel" who was shot by snipers for saying that. Or the Israelis dressed up as Palestinians to enter a hospital and kill three Palestinians in their beds. Or every single Palestinian currently kept in an Israeli prison. Or the journalists, doctors, poets, men, women, children, and the unborn all massacred. Or the fact that WCNSF exists now. Or the woman who refused to wash the blood from her hands. Or the dead, unburied and unmourned.

I'm never forgetting those who chose silence in the face of a genocide.

I may not know all their names but I will not forget the over 30,000 Palestinians dead. Or the over 60, 000 people hurt. Or the unknown number of people missing, still lost under the rubble. Or the 12,000 children slaughtered. An entire generation crippled or murdered.

I will never forget these things when Palestine is free.

It is more important than ever to keep sharing, showing up for protests, and sending emails to your representatives.

Keep talking about Palestine until the siege on Gaza ends, until the occupation ends, and until Palestinians are free.

Oh my gosh

This is pure evil. They say 12 employees participated in Oct 7th so they have to stop feeding the entire population????

I need everyone to understand that even as Palestinians, with everything that we grew up witnessing and learning about, some of what we've been seeing unfold in Gaza is still too horrific for us to bear or wrap our heads around

102 days and 75 years. If you wondered how in the past, the world would let such horrible things happen to humans, well we're seeing it now in real time. They're live streaming the genocide for us and it's still not enough.

Palestinian women and girls are actively being denied uterine and gynecological care. they have to use tent remnants as tampons and pads. they’re also getting infections as well. israel is actively denying them humanity. they have 0 access to care they need.

You can read the rest of the thread here. Plus here's the 84 page document submitted by South Africa

A few weeks ago the UN reported that everyone in Gaza is facing a food crisis -and that 1 in every 4 people in Gaza are starving -a quarter of their population is hundreds of thousands of Palestinian people. EVERYONE is hungry -their medical systems have collapsed and there are imminent outbreaks of diseases. How HUMILIATING and dehumanizing it is to have to fight for basic necessities. Imagine seeing a humanitarian truck -something rare because as we know the IOF has been collectively punishing Palestinian people for months now and has been committing mass genocide under the guide of 'war.' Not letting through resources to prevent people from dying from starvation is beyond depraved. And the fact we will NEVER see this on western/European mass media is just... absolutely infuriating.

the men and boys are innocent too.

we cry "the innocent women and children" to appeal to the masses, to try and force their sympathy, but the men and boys are innocent too.

I have seen sons crying out for their mothers, their fathers, their siblings. I have seen them break down at the loss of their families. I have seen them cling to their dead and grieve.

I have seen fathers cradle their dead children, seen them kiss their faces and hold their little hands. I have seen them faint with grief when asked to identify the dead. I have seen them carry their sons and daughters. I have seen them fasting to provide what little they can for their families.

I have seen men and boys digging through the rubble with just their bare hands, I have seen them comforting strangers, playing with children, rocking them, hushing them, even if the face of such imminent danger. I have seen them cry, seen them grieve, seen them break down into each other's arms, seen them be selfless, beyond selfless, becoming something I don't have a word for.

I have seen the men who are doctors refuse to leave their patients, even when they have no medicine or supplies to give them, even when they're threatened with bombings. I have seen fathers who have lost all their children pick orphans up into their arms and proclaim them their child so they are not alone. I have seen men and boys digging pets out of the rubble.

the men are innocent too. the men and boys are being hurt and killed too. the men and boys are grieving too. the men and boys are scared too. the men and boys are fighting to save their people too. the men and boys deserve to be fought for too.

This is me every time I see Richie Lipschitz

Children saying "I'd rather be dead" is not normal. Children crying "is this a dream?" is not normal. Children wondering "am I being taken to the cemetery?" is not normal.

We can all reckon the lasting psychological effects of this genocide on these children, but also remember that to many of the children of Gaza, this is the second, third, or even fourth Israeli aggression they had to live through.

Almost 50% of Gaza's population are children, over 10,000 of which have been murdered by Israel since October of this year.

i'm sorry but this man's character has given me the worst case of brainrot ffs

sorry for the shit quality lol

This video is from 2021 but still holds true to this day.

It's of a Palestinian child telling an Israeli soilder to get off her land.

And this, this is unironically the biggest threat to Israel.

That the people of the world are not with them.

That they are exposed as the illegal occupation colonising land that does not belong to them, while they try to wipe out the indigenous Palestinian population.

A six year old child telling them this land isn't there's, that's what they are most afraid of.

50% of Gaza is made up of children like this.

This is who Israel want to wipe out.

Hamas even used a recording of 2 children speaking in Arabic and the Israeli soilders came running.

Not because they knew Hamas was there, but because they heard the sound of children and came running with their guns.

They are the terrorists.

They are the ones carpet combing civilians, killing Palestinians and Israeli civilians.

They are the monsters.

But they aren't feared.

does throwing a stone at a tank

make a child a terrorist?

is terrorism about resisting oppression? is terrorism about demanding your birthright to live safely and peacefully in your homeland? is terrorism about hating the killers of your family, your friends and your people?

accusations of terrorism are often weaponized against those fighting for liberation and sovereignty and dignity. the french settlers called the algerians terrorists. the indian government calls the kashmiris terrorists. the pakistani army calls pashtun activists terrorists. the turkish government calls the kurds terrorists. apartheid south africa called nelson mandela a terrorist. americans called the vietcong and the black panthers terrorists. the israelis call the palestinians terrorists. all oppressive regimes are connected. all oppressed people are connected. injustice anywhere is a threat to justice everywhere.

Gaza has a large disabled population. Wissam is just one of tens of thousands, who need medication and care, facing the devastating choice of being slaughtered at home or out on the streets. All districts in Gaza but one have been declared combat zones.

The fact that people keep conflating critiquing government practices and policies with hating an entire religion with its own diaspora of practice is concerning, like in the long term

exactly. people are conflating their own identity with a genocidal regime and then scream bloody murder when you criticise the regime because THEY feel like it’s an attack on their identities 💀 it’s so stupid.

i’ve said it before and i’ll say it again: people who think criticising israel and wanting to dismantle an ethno-religious apartheid state is a sign of antisemitism are only giving their religion and ethnicity a bad name.

it is a farce to believe that israel is the only way jews can be free. it is a farce to believe that jews are more marginalised than the palestinians as a whole.

there was absolutely no need to establish the state of israel in the first place. palestinians welcomed jewish refugees. they only demanded the british reduce the number of jews migrating to palestine because the zionists were saying things like “build a jewish land as jewish as england is english” or “remove the arabs from the land for the jews” or “a land with no people for a people with no land”

it’s completely understandable to not want crazy psycho colonisers and settlers to enter your land from europe of all places when they’ve been spreading ideologies of ethnic cleansing and taking over your land based on THEIR religious scriptures.

and not even that, the very first chapter (well technically second but the first chapter is just defining ethnic cleansing so my brain doesn’t count it HAHA) of ilan pappé’s ethnic cleaning of palestine describes what is truly written in jewish scriptures.

of course there are multiple types of zionism (as you often hear israeli leftists and pro-israel people talk about when you criticise zionism) but this—political zionism—is what’s being weaponised and used in modern day israel to oppress the palestinians. not that the other models or zionism are not rooted in colonial projects as well lol but that’s a separate post for a different day.

the point is… it doesn’t take a genius to understand why palestinians opposed the eventual large emigrations of jews from around the world to palestine. if you’ve seen my post on the timeline of the nakba, you’ll understand exactly what i mean.

having a connection to a land thousands of years back does not give you the right to claim someone else’s home as your own. and saying that should not automatically label you as antisemitic because that implies that your religion supports and endorses the ethnic cleansing of native people from the land to “build your holy land”.

and even so, the land is not just holy to jews. it’s holy to christians and muslims too. it’s valuable and dear to all people of abrahamic religions. so it makes no sense for one group to claim the entirety of it on religious grounds.

nor does it make sense for a marginalised group to claim someone else’s land because they have been ethnically cleansed from the land they were born in. the reward of jewish suffering cannot come at the expense of the suffering of palestinians. i’m not sure why that’s so hard to understand. i don’t see where the antisemitism is in all this.

and i certainly don’t understand the idiots rattling on about “the second coming of holocaust vibes” because zionists are being criticised and as a result there is a spike in antisemitic sentiment among bigoted individuals. how can you worry about a second holocaust when there is a genocide ACTIVELY HAPPENING RIGHT NOW that is being carried out by YOUR STATE, on the basis of YOUR IDENTITY, endorsed by YOUR PEOPLE.

how one can overlook the killings of 20K people and think “gosh i’m worried they’re going to start executing my people again”? i’ll never understand.

never mind how antisemitism is not even a systemic issue. jews are not systemically discriminated against for being jewish. most ashkenazi jews can get away with being jewish with nobody batting an eye other than bigoted people being vile and disgusting. palestinians on the other hand not only are being oppressed by israel and actively being killed and displaced, they are also frequently profiled for being arabs. they are frequently profiled for being muslims. they are systemically profiled. especially in western countries. look at how all the western universities support israel and speak up for israel yet nobody squeaks a word out for palestine. students have to make individual efforts to show solidarity.

refaat alareer was a UCL alumnus yet they refused to even say “rip refaat” on their page. point blank refused. 3 students from brown university were shot for wearing keffiyeh. and yet, universities still want to police students for saying “from the river to the sea” and “intifada” as if they’re calls for genocide.

and even if they are (they’re NOT but let’s imagine)… a call for a genocide cannot take precedence over AN ACTUAL genocide??

ugh sorry this got so long, anon. i got a lil angry. it’s just baffling to me how people can ignore the palestinians like this and refuse to show even an ounce of empathy.

someone on twitter said:

the double standard of the palestinian “conflict” is that any palestinian violence justifies any israeli violence, but no israeli violence ever justifies palestinian violence.

and i haven’t stopped thinking about this since.

any violence by israel is seen as self defense on a land they took by force. and any retaliation by palestinians is seen as an act of “terrorism” even though it was their land that was stolen. it was their people who were massacred and ethnically cleansed in 1948.

it is the palestinians who are constantly being oppressed. it is the palestinians who are largely stateless. it is the palestinians who do not have a right to return. it is the palestinians who are being silenced. it is the palestinians who are being murdered in cold blood.

israel must be dismantled and palestine must be liberated. the palestinians must receive compensation and a restoration of their rights. they must be given their land back. no questions asked.

and before all that… there MUST be a permanent ceasefire and an end to occupation.
