Everyone should take 2 mins to watch this.

A father, helped by neighbours, digging for the body of his daughter.

Their home destroyed by Israel.

This is proper reporting and the reason Israel allows nobody into Gaza and targets journalists every day.

In the West, you see Israel through the prism of their unrelenting mendacious propaganda.

On the ground, you see it in its raw form: a vindictive, bitter, vicious, ungrateful, unreliable, perfidious, and, mainly, bloodthirsty terrorist state.

Enough, no?

Even Tony Blair & Elon Musk were forced to concede Islam built a great civilisation, whilst simultaneously demonising Islam today. The civilisation didn’t exist without political authority. The chaos in the Muslim world comes from its absence.

YouTube deleted all my coverage of Israeli soldiers shooting civilians, including children targeted on a live stream, along with my entire account.

No community guidelines violated & 3 separate excuses given to me. Then Google deleted my email & won’t respond to appeals.

Growing up in Germany, the Netherlands, and the American Midwest, I was extremely pro-Jewish and extremely pro-Israel. I believed every bit of the narrative we were fed. I even had a Palestinian guy in my class, and whenever he talked about his situation, I’d get angry. I called him an anti-Semite more than once. Looking back, I feel ashamed of how deeply I had internalized that mindset.

I genuinely thought Judaism was the best religion in the world. I even considered converting at one point to support these “poor, prosecuted people”. That’s how far gone I was. And all of that happened without me even knowing any Jews in real life. I had met maybe one or two in my life until a few years ago.

That started to change during my PhD. We had a research partnership with a Hebrew university. The academics we worked with were hardcore Zionists. They talked about Palestinians like animals. Justified the killings. Brushed off the land theft. That’s when the mask began to fall.

I started digging. I learned about the Balfour Declaration, how American Zionists played a role in destabilizing my own country of birth. I learned about the Nakba. How settlers destroyed water wells and entire orchards. How people who had lived there for centuries were treated like subhumans. I saw the ugly truth no one ever talks about.

Even up to October 7th, I still thought: there are good Jews and bad Jews, just like in any group. But since then, what I’ve witnessed is beyond shocking. Almost every Jewish voice I’ve come across, online, in media, in real life, has been defending genocide. Demonizing anyone who dares speak up for Palestinians. Calling people Nazis, animals, anti-Semites, just for standing on the side of humanity.

That kind of moral blackmail used to work on me. Being called an anti-Semite as a German? That was the worst thing you could say. But not anymore. Not after seeing who’s really fueling the hate. Not after hearing the things that are being said… things that sound like they came straight from hell.

What changed me was not hate, it was clarity. I realized Zionism is not about survival but dominance, and it has nothing in common with Christian values, either.

And honestly, what still puzzles me, what I genuinely don’t understand, is why they behave the way they do.

They say they want peace. They say they’ve been hated throughout history, kicked out of country after country, persecuted without reason. But then you look at how they act,right now. They smear anyone who dares to criticize Israel. They slander. They don’t try to make allies, they issue threats. They demand people be canceled. They justify war crimes. They talk about exterminating others.

If they really want to be liked, if they want to live in peace, if they want people to stop criticizing them, then why do they act like this? Why don’t they try kindness, truth, humility? Why not show some decency, some humanity, especially now that the entire world is watching?

It makes no sense, unless domination is the goal. Not peace. Not coexistence.

Because when I listen to people like Mark Levin or Ben Shapiro or that Randy Fine dude, what I hear isn’t just propaganda, but pure venom. It’s a kind of moral filth that feels like it crawled out of hell. The arrogance. The dehumanization. The glee in war and death.

You can’t act like this and expect the world like you. You can’t demand sympathy while trying to silence those who demand the truth. You can’t play eternal victim while behaving like a tyrant. Eventually, people wake up. Just like I did.

I used to believe everything they told me. Now I see it clearly. Thank you! 🙏🏼

The International Court of Justice rules that Israel’s settlements are illegal, and that it is an occupying power that enacts systematic discrimination. It demands the Palestinian right of return, and states Israel is clearly in breach of international law.

[Sania Ahmad @SaniaAhmad1111]

Both sides do not get lynched for their food choices and on mere suspicions.
Both sides do not have their murderers getting Lok Sabha tickets.
Both sides do not have their rape accused garlanded by sitting MPs.
Both sides do not get their houses bulldozed because the police decided to concoct a case against them.
Both sides do not have hateful slogans like 'jab mulle k**te jayenge normalized against them.
Both sides do not become the victim and yet are also the accused.
Both sides are not jailed for concocted propaganda of love jihad and land jihad and what not.
Both sides do not have their places of religion demolished and taken over.
Both sides do not have the privilege of the police protecting their rioting.
Both sides do not have the State not only supporting violence against them but also calling for it.
So please take your both-sideism and shove it up where the sun doesn't shine.

“I have Muslim friends that I’m close to but they have never expressed their anguish to me.”

It’s because they don’t trust you enough with their emotional well-being. They don’t even have the luxury of venting out their anxiety.

Just as men will never truly feel what it is like for a woman to live her life with her guard up, looking over her shoulder, a Hindu will never truly know what it is to live as a minority in India - your identity under threat 24x7.

From casual remarks in social circles to outright hatred being peddled in the media and on the streets, every single Muslim citizen is in some form of anguish over what’s happening, no matter where in the country they live.

This is not who we once aspired to be.

Everyone who has chosen to stay quiet when the fringe was just fringe - has enabled this venomous ecosystem our future generations will grow up in.

"I have *minority* friends” is a statement to make yourself feel better. They are not specimen samples to prove your misguided sense of inclusivity.

We all have hate-spewing relatives, friends, colleagues and neighbours. Call out their bigotry to their face or disconnect/distance from them. Please exit that toxic WhatsApp group.

We are far too deep within the rot to simply "adjust".

Do you realise that if those brainwashed youth on the streets had access to education, they would have been demanding jobs instead of blood?

It is easier for their masters to keep their raging testosterone occupied with destruction and unrest. None of those youth have any clue what their own religion stands for - let alone someone else’s.

Their frustration with life and lack of purpose has been brutally and strategically weaponised.

Maybe we don’t speak out enough because it is truly emotionally taxing to deal with trolls and online assault.

Compare that to people who are likely to be ostracised, disenfranchised, or even killed for merely belonging to another religion or to a tribe that’s settled for centuries on valuable land.

I pray to the universe that the hate doesn’t come to your door. That’s the nature of hate. Once released in the air, it finds its way into everyone’s nostrils.

Remember… for the one in love with power, everyone else is the enemy.
