Kapag lumabas ng bahay, mahal ang gas at presyo ng bilihin, binabarat ang sahod
Kapag nasa eskinita sa may bahay, titiketan
Ang bahay binabaha kahit may flood control
Ang bahay idedemolish
Kapag nasunog ang bahay, hindi na pababalikin sa bahay
Saan lulugar ang mahihirap?!

Ang totoo, kinailangan pa ng isang malalang krisis sa pulitika na tumatama sa pinakatuktok ng gobyerno bago ginawang prayoridad ang mga ito ni Marcos. Kinailangan pang tumalim ang krisis sa kredibilidad ng anti-corruption efforts ni Marcos bago siya gumalaw.

⚖️🇵🇸 The Verdict is in: GUILTY!
The esteemed jurors of the Right to Resist: International People's Tribunal on Palestine unanimously found the Zionist entity of "Israel", the governments of the US, UK, Germany, France, and other complicit institutions and corporations guilty of the crimes of genocide and ecocide.
After two days of witness testimony, including survivors of genocide and ecocide in Gaza and the West Bank, the prosecution presented its indictment before the verdict was handed down.
The fight does not stop here, nor did it begin with the Tribunal. As lead prosecutor Jan Ferman stated in his closing remarks:
"The liberation of Palestine is the work of the Palestinians. The work of the rest of us is solidarity. Nazism was brought down by the resistance of the people of the world. The US intervention in Vietnam was ended by the struggle of the Vietnamese people and the solidarity of the people of the world. Apartheid was brought down by the struggle of the South African people and the solidarity of the people of the world.”
"With all these initiatives around the world of international solidarity, this Tribunal is part of this struggle for the right of the Palestinian people to the right of self-determination.”
Much more will be released soon on the verdict, full proceedings, and other materials to support the Palestinian people's fight for a free Palestine from the River to the Sea.
