Tell me about the "Islamophobia".
Tell that to the 7-year-old me, who was forced to wear this (photo on the right) to school every day since she was 7 years old.
Tell the 8-year-old me that she was about to be molested by an adult man in a very conservative neighborhood on her way to school, and that if she didn't run fast enough and the school wasn't close enough, who knows what would happen to her.
Tell me my entire childhood wasn't taken away from me.
Tell me my adolescence in Iran was not filled with terror.
Tell me I wasn't oppressed and abused and that I'm just a "Islamophobe."
for a long time i said that antisemitism, particularly on the american left, was not as bad as people claimed.
i'd like to just state that i was totally wrong.
i still don't understand it, really. or know what to do about it.
but it is so fucked.
Israel does not target innocents.
If your reaction is "that must be a lie, since there are dead innocents", I think it implausible that you've never thought about warfare. More plausible that you've been captured by an ancient, deadly Pattern of immoral thinking about Jews.
LIBERATION๐ณ๏ธโ๐THE FIRST EVER PRIDE FLAG RAISED IN GAZA!
Under Hamas, being gay means death. Israeli Yoav Atzmoni wanted to send a message of hope. See his story below.
To Gazaโs hidden LGBTQ+ community: STAY HOPEFUL of a future where you can live and love free of Hamas!
Me: "I'm Palestinian"
Western leftist: "Great we should destroy the Zionist entity from the river to the sea and send the Jews back to Europe"
Me: "Nah that sounds pretty crazy and antisemitic, we should have peace"
Western leftist: "You're a traitor to the Palestinian cause"
This is the woman ITV invited on to talk about โIslamophobiaโ this week, and how tough it is to live in Britain. Here she is on the day of the Hamas massacres:
I'm Palestinian.
I feel so politically isolated right now.
Most Palestinians seem to have gone off the deep end. I see so many making excuses for terrorism, usually along the false lines that Israel is committing genocide.
Where are the Palestinians who want peace with Israel?
The BBC, SKY etc push a false story about Israel bombing a Gaza hospital (it was a Palestinian-fired rocket). And this in turn pushes genocidists-in-waiting to process to their next stage. Nice team-work, guys.
First clear footage from the Al Ahli tragedy in Gaza, but what do you notice?
this is a surface explosion, almost no soil is thrown up, so it's not an air bomb.
Looks like a failed Hamas rocket that landed there, what a tragedy has Hamas brought to the people of Gaza!
Kidnapping children is despicable and wholly unjustifiable. For obvious reasons, this picture has hit home with me. May Noya and all hostages taken by Hamas be returned soon, safely, to their families.
To the feminists: Hamas ripped open a pregnant Israeli womanโs stomach, killed the fetus and then killed the mother. Hamas raped women and girls, mutilated their bodies, and then shot them. Hamas is holding 200 civilians captive โ mostly girls and women โ and doing God knows what to them.
If you canโt find your voice in this moment to denounce Hamas, you have failed and shame on you.
