Brian Cox reads If I Must Die, by beloved Palestinian poet, teacher and martyr Refaat Alareer.
Refaat was killed on December 7th by an Israeli airstrike.
This was the last poem he published.
They only associate Palestine with the image of civilians being bombed. Seeing armed resistance was not apart of the program. They want the situation to return “to peace” so they can get back to the same social media posts they’ve made the past 7 years
Only Israel can bomb 4 different countries in the course of 48 hours, namely Palestine, Lebanon, Syria and Egypt, and still be portrayed as the victim in Western media.
I think when you’re transitioning from being a people pleaser into a person with more boundaries it can feel so weird – it's hard to tell if you’re being mean or if you’re actually just respecting your own feelings, because you’re so used to putting other people's feelings first.
