I am a US citizen & Surgeon who took care of the Boston Maraton Bombing victims in 2013. I paid for 7 years to own a small apartment in downtown #Beirut for my 3 kids to enjoy summers there. Today, #Israel reduced my dream home to rubble, with american weapons, paid by my taxes.

Jordan’s response right now is not indifference. It is political memory at work.

[Nermeen Murad Garlick @Nmurad]

In Jordan, regional escalation does not necessarily produce panic. It produces conversation, memory and calibrated alertness.

https://t.co/tyCWWcuyLR "funds have prioritised programmes that help women survive “inside the system”, rather than giving them any influence “over the system.” It may seem like a subtle difference, but it has huge ramifications." my column on Beyond ODA and funding for women.

@MPritchardUK UK must recognise Palestine and its international role in pushing for fair solution that addresses Palestinians’ right to exist as a viable state

[Nermeen Murad Garlick @Nmurad]

@Keir_Starmer Embarrassed by your ridiculous statement. The UK, under your leadership, is not only lacking integrity but also any sense of statesmanship. We deserve better!

[Nermeen Murad Garlick @Nmurad]

@Keir_Starmer Is it the same region that blameless innocent Israel has been actively stoking and stirring since it occupied Palestine in 1948? This elaborate statement condemns everyone else/asks them to behave, ignores Israel’s role. “End Israeli genocide” is more impactful/inspiring message.

[Nermeen Murad Garlick @Nmurad]

@DavidLammy We really need the UK to have an ethical and fair stance towards Israel’s inhumane mistreatment of Palestinians. Please don’t lecture us on Hamas when priority is to condemn Israel’s genocide against Palestinians. Immediate ceasefire. End the occupation.

[Nermeen Murad Garlick @Nmurad]

@FCDOGovUK @DavidLammy @UNRWA Excellent step in the right direction. UK must redress the balance and its moral compass with regards the Palestinian issue

@mixtorious1 @piersmorgan He was a traitor to the royal family but the father should still try to keep the family talking even if it is at a minimum

@JamesCleverly Let’s play populist politics at the expense of health care and the economy .. good one.. brilliant policy .. disgusted!

[Nermeen Murad Garlick @Nmurad]

@RishiSunak You turned out to be an absolute waste of conservative space. Deliver a better economy, better education, better business environment.. riding the wave of immigration narrative when u r a son of immigrants.. is proof of ur political bankruptcy .. not voting 4 u next time!

[Nermeen Murad Garlick @Nmurad]

@daveatherton All religious conservatives from the Muslim, Christian and Jewish cultures follow similar practices that reduce women to physical second class citizens. But I think you meant to say all Muslims do this? They don’t!
