"Elderly Palestinian couple looking at their former home, now occupied by a couple from Brooklyn. 🇵🇸" [@/RamAbdu on X. April 4th, 2024.]
Just a reminder for people who may not know, in light of protestors at UCLA being shot in the face with rubber bullets— rubber bullets are not bullets made of rubber. They are metal bullets encased in rubber.
Despite being called “non-lethal” or sometimes “less lethal”, they are well known to cause death and permanent disability.
Here’s a photo showing their size— these are actual rubber bullets used during the Black Lives Matter protests in 2020.
Do not let them downplay the severity of what they are subjecting this students to for standing against genocide. Stay safe and stay educated.
Care For Gaza has been providing food, water, diapers, baby formula, etc., to displaced families. Donate to them if you can
The IOF massacred hundreds of Palestinian people at al-Shifa hospital. Reading accounts of this brutalization and violence is beyond horrifying. Israel is a terrorist state. Israel is committing genocide. These are war crimes and crimes against humanity. The zionist entity is both depraved and sadistic.

All the tarp you see are human bodies. How many of those tarp covered bodies didn't make it to see their 18th birthday? How many didn't get to see the 1st birthday of their child? How many didn't get to celebrate retirement? These are human lives being ripped away at an alarming rate.
There should be no reason you can't step outside without seeing a decomposing child, mother, father, grandmother, grandfather, uncle, aunt, brother, sister, friend, or lover.
They had lives and yet they are buried next to the sidewalk? Would you be okay with your loved one being buried next to the sidewalk? No. No you wouldn't.
I'd really hate to do this but my Kofi is here in case anyone wants to help a black disabled trans man(me) get stuff to take care of himself and to save up to move out of his toxic/abusive household. any help is appreciated, I'm so sorry.
