During the Irish Starvation (not just a famine), people died with mouths stained green from eating grass.
It took years to reach that desperation. It took Gaza mere months.
When history repeats itself, it quickens and worsens to destroy more victims faster.
A reminder that Israel has no “right to defend itself” as an occupying power under international law. The only thing Israel can do is end the occupation.
Palestinians however, have the legal right to defend themselves, resist occupation, and return to their homes.
Tonight, Atlanta press & allies gathered to honor the 60+ journalists killed since Oct. 7. We cried, made new friends, reunited with old ones. I heard people say they didn’t know they needed this. Same. Dear journalists in Gaza, we hear you. And we won’t let the world forget.
“Israeli snipers shoot displaced Palestinian kids sheltering at a United Nations-operated school in a refugee camp” sounds like the kind of thing that would be rock bottom in terms of indefensibility
The US veto stands in contrast to the values it professes to uphold. By continuing to provide diplomatic cover for the atrocities in #Gaza, the US is signaling that international humanitarian law can be applied selectively - that the lives of some people matter less than others.
If I called for huge protests all over the world, especially in the US to stop killing us and call for a ceasefire
Do you believe we could move the people to do it?
Ceasefire now!
My friends texted me today asking for liners and pads.
We have been searching for pads for days but can’t find any.
Can you imagine having your period without pads, tampons, nor liners?
What will you do?
Feminist on this world to you still exist?
Be ashamed if you stopped talking about Palestine.
Do you realize that Gaza doesn’t even want your money? All Gaza wants is for people to keep talking about them. Gaza counts on you to be their voice & to humanize them. Keep talking about Palestine. Keep talking about Gaza.
