The unbearable "unprotectedness" of childhood under Israel's cruel military rule. Same brutality for generations.
And some pretend to believe "it all started in Oct 2023", and even call it "a war".

Thanks to your support, AFSC recently funded the construction of a new gathering hall in Gaza. This new community space gives displaced Palestinians a safe place to learn, organize, and heal together. Read more from AFSC's Firas. https://t.co/BOHckR0rEY
AFSC welcomes the announcement of a ceasefire in Gaza and a potential end to the genocide. For two years we have called for an end to Israeli attacks, the release of all people held captive, and full humanitarian access to Gaza. https://t.co/YDk5NuttZP
Today, Israel has launched a full military takeover of Gaza City, escalating famine and genocide. We urge the U.S. and global community to act now to stop it and hold Israeli leaders accountable. https://t.co/5uzS5OXe68
AFSC is proud to co-publish the book “Displaced in Gaza: Stories from the Gaza Genocide,” along with Haymarket and the Hashim Sani Center for Palestine Studies. The collection includes powerful first-person testimonies from Palestinians in Gaza. https://t.co/AJGSVps2Au
Trump’s latest EO sanctions the ICC and any group or person backing its probe into Israel’s war crimes. It’s another move by his admin to punish Palestinians seeking justice, even as they face genocide in Gaza. https://t.co/zXktDix3kB

It's been 4 months since Israel closed Gaza's borders.
Now, Gaza is starving. The question is, what will we do now? Every hour that passes in Gaza means death by starvation, bombardment, or both for Palestinians— writes @YousefAljamal for @mypoliticstoday https://t.co/WdHe1PSlLP
It is projected that from April to September 2025, 244,000 people in Gaza, about 12% of the population, will face catastrophic hunger, due to extreme lack of food.
That means death by starvation is no longer a risk. It is a reality. https://t.co/4Wbi3W869q
Proud of my #Quaker community. Eight global Quaker organizations, including @afsc_org, discerned that Israel is committing #Genocide.

Mamdani’s victory in the most Jewish city in America — despite a relentless smear campaign by militant Zionists — is a clear referendum on the lie that criticizing Israel equals antisemitism.
New Yorkers rejected the antisemitic notion that opposing genocide is the same as hating Jews. They understand that denouncing a genocidal regime is not hate — it’s a moral imperative.
Bravo, New York. 🗽✊🏼
After watching Mamdani v Cuomo, any smart Democrat thinking about running for president in 2028 should recognize that taking the Biden line on Israel is a political disaster.
