This is not just a picture, it is the weeping of the senselessness of the whole Ummah. This innocent girl of hunger in Ghaza is hugging her younger brother not her but consoling her broken heart. At the age when she has a doll in her hand Should have, today his brother starving in his hands. There is no bread to eat, no roof over his head, just each other's tears and the world's criminal silence 💔

Children can't even attend school peacefully due to militia attacks and tensions. Imagine a child being deprived of education simply because the land they live on is rich in minerals that some greedy companies want to exploit.

Israeli settlers are some of the most vile and shameless people in the world

🚨BREAKING: At 4am this morning, Israeli Forces raided a building in Al-Tur, occupied Jerusalem, forcibly removed its residents (didn't even allow them to pack belongings), and proceeded to demolish the 5 Storey building (10 apartments, ~70 residents made homeless in Jerusalem)‼️

Annesini şehit veren, İsrail yüzünden bacağını kaybeden bir babanın gölgesinde açlıkla boğuşan ve günden güne eriyen çocuklar...

[Mike Recine @mikerecine]

The dad had to go home and disassemble the baby’s crib and hide his toys because he knew his wife wouldn’t be able to handle seeing it. You should hate the people who do this. Hate is good actually.

Don't stop talking about the people of Sudan.

[Caitlin Johnstone @caitoz]

Okay cool, I hate how Israel and its obscenely powerful lobbying groups are actively destroying civil liberties throughout the western world in an effort to stomp out all speech that is critical of Israeli abuses and atrocities.

Go on. Name one who does it worse. Just one.

We are now at the stage of the genocide where Israeli politicians openly and proudly call for mass murdering babies

آثار استفاده از فسفر سفید بر بدن کودکان فلسطینی دیده می‌شود!
فسفر سفید هنگام سوختن می‌تواند به پوست بچسبد و سوختگی‌های عمیق ایجاد کند و دود آن نیز به چشم‌ها و دستگاه تنفسی آسیب می‌زند.
کودکان، قربانیانی هستند که آثار این جنگ را با بدن و زندگی خود تحمل می‌کنند.

How squeamish we are in this new geopolitical kitchen. How easily some of us choose sides against our own country.

Last year, when Ebrahim Rasool got expelled because he said the Trump administration was mobilizing white victimhood (a decision I endorsed), some of you were quick to point out the correct place and decorum of am ambassador.

Now, many of those same voices have changed to defending the ambassador, all based on "asks" that should at best be debated. See the pattern?

Speaking of patterns, have a look at this list of ambassadors openly criticizing their host countries, in breach of diplomatic protocols, and against the strong objection from those countries:

L. Brent Bozell III — United States ambassador to South Africa
Charles Kushner — United States ambassador to France
Tom Rose — United States ambassador to Poland
Pete Hoekstra — United States ambassador to Canada
Brandon Judd — United States ambassador to Chile
Bill White — United States ambassador to Belgium

See the pattern?

For many of you, your breathless indignation and your stated concern for the welfare of the country is little more than a thinly veiled, and terribly transparent, mask to hide your prejudice and your selfishness. If you want to improve the country, and by God we need so much if that, do it from this side of the fence.

If you are sincere about this, as most of you are, stop basing your decisions on fear and sophisticated hate campaigns that use you as gun fodder. Fight for your country without being gullible, without oversimplification, without doing further damage

[Redi Tlhabi @RediTlhabi]

You were rightly told that if you are not interested in dialogue, then you are in the wrong job. How is that an insult? You will not succeed in South Africa if you come with a superiority complex and a "natural" proclivity to wag your finger. It is intolerable to most citizens. There are multiple African idioms about dignity- it is far more valuable than wealth. You will learn...one day.

[Shirin @Shirink_13]

Imagine if this brutality were happening in any Muslim country against women.

The entire world would have been turned upside down.
