Shut Down Pornhub and Hold Its Executives Accountable for Aiding Trafficking https://t.co/lFNOtoO55L via @lailamickelwait https://t.co/5xVX8jld98 #Traffickinghub
@Blakesays001@SarahTheHaider Great article. I'm no expert on what happens in the Palestinian territories but I have read they don't have much tolerance for atheists either.
Personal Thoughts:
(not for everyone, feel free to skip)
For the longest time, I struggled with my identity.
A Palestinian kid born inside Israel. Like…wtf.
Many of my friends refuse to this day to say the word “Israel” and call themselves “Palestinian” only.
But since I was 12, that did not make sense to me.
So I decided to mix the two and become a “Palestinian-Israeli”
I thought this term reflected who I was.
Palestinian first. Israeli second.
But after recent events, I started to think.
And think.
And think.
And then my thoughts turned to anger.
I realized that if Israel were to be “invaded” like that again, we would not be safe. To a terrorist invading Israel, all citizens are targets.
900 Israelis died so far. More than 40 of them are Arabs. Killed by other Arabs. And even 2 Thai people died too.
And I do not want to live under a Palestinian government.
Which means I only have one home, even if I’m not Jewish:
Israel.
That’s where all my family lives. That’s where I grew up. That’s the country I want to see continue to exist so I can exist.
Palestine should exist too as an independent state. And I hope to see the country thrive and become less extreme and more prosperous. I love Palestine and have invested in Palestine.
But it’s not my home.
So from today forward,
I view myself as an “Israeli-Palestinian”.
Israeli first.
Palestinian second.
Sometimes it takes a shock like this to see so clearly.
Even though I'm English I don't care if #ENG lose now after what James did. She almost stamped on the #NGA genitals. Absolutely disgusting behaviour!!! #ENGNGA#FIFAWWC
It's incredible really. Despite thrashing #MAR in their opening game #GER could be eliminated and the Moroccans could go through to the next round #FIFAWWC
