Don't talk to me about October 7. Don't talk to me about hostages. I don't care. I haven't cared for months. Many, many times more Gazans are dying and suffering than the number of Israelis who died and are suffering. That means the death and suffering of Palestinians is much more urgent and matters much more than the death and suffering of Israelis. The only way to disagree with this is to believe Israeli lives are worth much, much more than Palestinian lives.
The longer the mass atrocity in Gaza goes on for the less tragic and worthy of sympathy October 7 becomes. It's already been diminished to a fraction of the significance it once had, and it's getting smaller and smaller as this nightmare stretches on. This is not the fault of people like me, it is the fault of the people conducting this genocide. You don't get to murder tens of thousands of people and then demand everyone weep over you losing a thousand. That's not a thing.
It's SO fucking obnoxious how Israel supporters keep acting like actions a tiny fraction as impactful as what's been happening in Gaza are where all our sympathy and attention should still be going, nearly four months after the fact. Fuck all the way off with that idiotic bullshit.
All of Israel's actions since October 7 have revealed why Hamas did what it did on October 7. This is the kind of murderousness and depravity Palestinians have been living under from the Nakba on. Israel is so murderous and depraved that one of the most common talking points of its apologists when responding to opposition to the atrocities in Gaza has been "Yeah, what did Hamas expect would happen? Fuck around and find out!" That's not a sane or acceptable way for human beings to talk about acts of genocide and the butchery of thousands of children, but Israel apologists think it's normal. Because that's what Israel is.
In the eyes of the world, Israel has retroactively legitimized the acts of violence the Palestinian resistance has been inflicting upon it. It has legitimized those acts by showing the world its true face.
In my speech at the World Economic Forum today, I addressed three frequently asked and important questions: When will Russia’s war against Ukraine end? Is the Third World War possible? Is it time to negotiate with Putin?

@cathy_ahf@Tesco@jk_rowling The byline describes her as ‘specialising in women’s health’ - which, clearly she doesn’t, as she can’t bring herself to even write the word. And she has the gall to talk about “uphill struggle” and “we hear you”. No - you don’t.
@British_Airways I AM following you and I HAVE already DM all my details - more than once. Please check - everything is in your DM. I am tired of sending this info to you (plus many many emails) and yet nothing is being done
@BritishhAirways I’ve sent all this in PM but just get tomd it’s an issue for ‘Customer Relations’ and you can’t do anything. Check your PM for all my details, then maybe you can do something about it
@British_Airways I’ve done all that. My case is open since November - i just keep getting told that a cheque has been ‘released’. I have received nothing. It’s nearly 8 months now and multiple follow-ups but no one tells me anything except to ‘be patient’.
