Do you know the terror inflicted on little Hind? I can’t even imagine the trauma - trapped in a car with her family shot to death as she pleads for help. Isra.eli forces won’t allow anyone through. Now all contact has been lost - no-one knows what’s happened to her. CRIMINAL.
St. Thomas' Hospital in London displaying the pictures and names of Palestinian children murdered and injured in Gaza.
Amazing show of solidarity from those who care for the most vulnerable.
The political ‘leaders’ do not speak for the people.
A writer must speak on behalf of the unheard, those who cannot articulate well what they feel or see, and most importantly to me, those who lost their lives under the rubble of vicious wars. That’s part of resistance—keeping memories of oneself and others, eternalizing shared feelings in human life.
Israeli government ministers dance at a conference planning illegal Israeli settlements in Gaza.
So far, I have spotted the ministers of communication, national security, and heritage, at least.
Here is a video showing the police not allowing Na’amodniks to join the march, citing the @CST_UK and the march organisers as the reason.
A second video to follow in tweet below.
"I share your pain...."
British MP Jeremy Corbyn sends an emotional message to the people of Gaza today outside the International Court of Justice in The Hague.
Israel is GUILTY of Genocide.
I say this as a Jew and son of a Holocaust survivor.
Never again doesn't mean only for Jews, it means Never Again for everyone.
Former South Africa MP @AndrewFeinstein on Israel at the International Court of Justice in The Hague:
🚨ICJ - SOUTH AFRICA AGAINST ISRAEL - ISRAEL’S GENOCIDAL INTENT FULL CLIP.
“Any suggestion Israeli officials didn't mean what they said or were misunderstood, should be rejected by this court. The evidence of genocidal intent is not only chilling, it is also overwhelming and incontrovertible.”

As you listen to the demands being made by the South African legal case against Israel, you really get a sense for how minimal value Israel holds for Palestinian life. These are demands that should never have to be made and it's actually crazy that we are here.

Myself & poet/resilience coach @ShamshadKhan27 are holding space for women/non-binary creatives of Muslim heritage affected by the ongoing military strikes, the UK government's position & the silencing/shadow banning of those speaking out.
