#TodayInHistory
Today marks the 39th anniversary of the 1986 People Power Revolution, a historic movement that led to the ouster of late dictator Ferdinand Marcos and the restoration of democracy in the Philippines.
Ending hospitals
Killing journalists and their families
Ending water sources
Destroying bakeries
Killing refugees in hospitals
Targeting ambulances
Targeting aid trucks
Killing 12,000+ people
No need to be smart to recognize that this is a genocide against civilians in Gaza.
crying as i’m translating, a mother says about her martyred children:
“you’re the ones who survived, not me. I remained in the most terrifying vile world which deprived me of you in a moment of betrayal. I swear I am satisfied with Allah’s fate.. (1/4)
Remember that genocide is not just about killing people, it's about erasing their existence entirely down to their culture and *history*. This denial of historical fact is active genocide.
Palestine TV journalist Mohammad Abu Hattab was killed with his family in an Israeli airstrike. His colleague Salman Al-Bashir removes his protective gear marked PRESS on air saying: “We can’t take it anymore, we are exhausted. We are victims. The only difference between us is the time of death. We are killed one after another. And no one cares about the catastrophe or the crime that we endure in Gaza. No protection for anyone or anything. This gear and helmet do not protect any journalist, they are just empty slogans. We are victims, live on air. We are victims awaiting our turn to be killed. Mohammad was here half an hour ago (reporting). Now he lies dead with his family in this same hospital.”
please don't stop being angry for what's happening in Palestine. please don't stop being angry for these war crimes. please don't stop being angry for all the innocent lives we're losing.

Reminder that boycotting WORKS !!! it seems like a slow process but don’t doubt it!! Find an alternative for these, go support local businesses instead ITS SO EASY
this post is very important right now, because I see a lot of you posting as if Palestinian people and their culture ceased to exist last night, Palestinian people are fighting and they survive! do not push the narrative that they may be gone forever, do not push hopelessness
