Who wants to read my long ass (but honest) review of #NobodyIsListening that I just posted on metacritic? Took me fvcking ages to write too. Somebody better read it on there. 🔪😡
💢 “They were children playing with kites. They were just sitting there playing. They are killing children.”
Israeli forces shot 10-year-old Palestinian girl Amal Abu Khater in the back, killing her instantly as she sat eating lunch inside her displaced family’s tent in western Khan Younis, southern Gaza, on Monday.
Amal had just returned from memorizing the Quran and performing the Dhuhr prayer, her family told Drop Site.
“There were people who felt safe, sitting in their tents. It’s supposed to be a safe area, and it is full of displaced people,” Amal’s relative Hassan Abu Khater told Drop Site’s Mohamed Ahmed.
“What did she do to deserve to be killed? She was sitting and eating sweets... What sin did this little girl commit?” Amal’s grandmother, Samira Abu Khater said.
Eight Palestinians, including two children, have been killed in Israeli attacks across Gaza since dawn Monday. “They fire indiscriminately,” Samira said.

✨ @hasanthehun expresses how difficult this past week has been for him. The media smears have been abhorrent: "I'm always going to push through it, no matter what. My policy is to always say the truth no matter how much people punish you over it. It's always to have fun with it too while we're covering such horrifying sights, horrifying realities. I will say this though: This past weekend has been a lot. I'm not going to lie to you. It's been a lot. I'm going to continue what I'm doing. I'm not going to feel discouraged. I'm not going to stop saying the truth. I'm not going to stop speaking truth to power in general. Someone has to do it. Someone has to tank it. But, this past weekend has been insane."
Israel has said that paper kites flown by Palestinian children will be treated as weapons of war.
Read that again.
This is the reality of genocide: the total destruction of innocence, freedom and joy.
End all military cooperation with Israel, now.
I'm not saying anything. But if I was gonna say something, it would be to never let your wife or long-term girlfriend get in the way of you finding your husband.
