Just to remind you.. This is the Israeli occupation soldier who murdered little Palestinian girl Hind Rajab by shooting 355 bullets at her tender body!
An Israeli prisoner in Gaza
Alexander Turbanov, gave a surprising statement from occupied Israel upon his return:
“Your kindness will forever be etched on my soul.
I spent 498 days among you.
Despite the oppression and aggression you endured,
I learned from you the true meaning of manhood, pure bravery, humanity, and respect for values.
Even in captivity, you were free,
while I, being free, was a prisoner.
You protected my life.
Like a father treats his sons with love,
you cared for my dignity, health, and honor.
Though I was in the hands of people fighting for their land and stolen freedom,
and while my government was committing the worst genocide against a besieged nation,
you neither starved me nor humiliated me.
I saw the real meaning of manhood in your eyes.
I understood the value of sacrifice by living among you.
I saw you smiling even in the face of death,
against an enemy armed with weapons of mass destruction,
while you had nothing but your own bodies.
Even if I tried, I couldn’t find the words
to truly express your worth and status,
or to reflect my astonishment and admiration for your noble character.
Does your faith really teach you to treat prisoners this way?
How great is that belief
that raises you to such a level
where all man-made laws of human rights fall apart,
and all protocols of war pale in comparison to your example.
Even in the harshest of times, your justice and mercy stood out —
not just as slogans,
but in your actual behavior.
You never compromised on your principles,
no matter how dark the circumstances were.
Believe me, if I ever return,
I will live among you as a dedicated student,
because I have learned the truth from your people.
I have realized that you are not just the owners of the land,
but the owners of principles and justice.”
Greta Thunberg: “Israeli soldiers hit, kicked, starved, and tortured me”
• They placed a flag next to me, and anytime the flag touched me, they kicked me
• Whenever I raised my head to look at Ben-Gvir, I was kicked
• She was filmed while stripped naked
• Prison was 40 degrees but no water was given to Greta and her friends for days
• People fell sick. Guards mocked them saying they would gas them, showing them cylinders
• She was kept in solitary confinement for hours with bugs

31 years in prison — including 13 consecutive years in solitary confinement.
Mahmoud Issa, one of the most significant and longest serving Palestinian prisoners released today.
My name is Dr. Yipeng Ge. I am a family doctor and public health practitioner. I have studied the impacts of settler colonialism on health, locally and abroad.
I am demanding for the immediate and unconditional release of Dr. Hussam Abu Safiya who is being held captive by the Israeli military for fulfilling his duty and calling to protect his patients.
I am calling for protection of hospitals, patients and health workers in Gaza.
#FreeDrHussamAbuSafiya
This Bangladeshi activist remains in Israeli imprisonment after being abducted by the Israeli navy along with many other international activists on board the Freedom Flotilla Coalition while sailing towards Gaza to peacefully break the siege.
Please STOP leaving Black activists behind. We always show up. We always stand tall. And too often, we’re the ones left to fend for ourselves.
Okey Nnorom deserves the same global outrage and solidarity.
✊🏿 Demand his release. #FreeOkey#GlobalSumudFlotilla
