Everytime a conflict breaks out anywhere in the world : Syria ,Sudan , Congo , Mars they come back with the same stupid question : why do you only talk about Israel , why don’t you talk about this or that . So here it is again : the answer for your stupid question . Reposting this to remind them with their stupid arguments

One of the most painful scenes I have seen during this humanitarian tragedy. Thousands of already displaced #Afrin Kurds are being forced to flee once again, while the deaf ears of the world ignore the screams of Kurdish children sleeping in the freezing cold. | Tevî her tiştî, karwan peşve dere û piştî şevreşîyê, rewşen tê…

We need solidarity right now. We need people to speak up for us, and with us right now. We need you to contribute to the demands for Kurdish rights. We need you to speak up for us with the same level of revolutionary love and intensity as when Rojava fought against ISIS for you!

As an atheist born in a christian maronite family (mostly having opposing views) & an education & career in a scientific discipline, it came to me today that this guy has been speaking to my mind for exactly 2/3 of my life. He was my source of inspiration, confidence and solace

I really need someone to explain to me how bombing 6 tower blocks in Beirut is different from bombing the twin towers. Like how.

710 Palestinian newborn babies have been killed by Israeli forces during the ongoing war in Gaza.

No parent should have to go through the agony and heartbreak of losing their child.

We simply cannot accept the violence that Palestinian children continue to face as normal.

Yes. There is #famine across all of Gaza. This is the consequence of Israel's intentional #starvation, used as part of its genocidal campaign against the Palestinians.

[Owen Jones @owenjonesjourno]

Israel bombed this school while kids played football.

At least 29 have so far been reported killed, many of them children.

Don't look away.

Time for sanctions on Israel. Enough of breaking every tenet of international law. Israel already stands condemned in no less than 45 resolutions of the UN for building settlements in land seized and conquered in war.

Israel approves plans for 3,400 new homes in West Bank settlements
