I'm Palestinian. Like many other women, I've been sexually assaulted & have Zionists threatening me w/ rape as I type. How dare you @melaniejoly slander *us* as Indigenous people as misogynistic w/ unverified allegations of rape rather than condemn our genocider?! 1/

"The human rights crisis in the occupied West Bank, including East Jerusalem, is also extremely alarming, including an increase in unnecessary or disproportionate, even militarised, use of force by Israeli forces resulting in a rise in unlawful killings."
I don't normally share videos or images that show mass depravity but this seems important.
Imagine your entire family has been killed and your home destroyed and you're then subject to this humiliation? God. Fuck the IDF so much.

Here's the letter from 9-old girl to her mom who died in #Borodianka.
"Mom!
You're the best mom in the whole world. I'll never forget you. I wish you'll get in Heaven and be happy there. I'll do my best to be a good person and get in Heaven too. See you in Heaven!
Galia xx".
