Please follow @ m7mdkurd on Twitter and on Instagram. A constant voice for Palestinians as he is also living there as well. He is a poet, and a person with hopes and dreams just like everyone else. There are constant updates through his social media, and I believe it is very important for people to actually see what’s going on through the lens of an actual Palestinian person.

AMIDST ISRAEL’S DEVASTATING ASSAULT ON GAZA, New York Congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, Wisconsin Congressman Mark Pocan, and Michigan Congresswoman Rashida Tlaib are preparing to introduce a resolution that would block the United States’ planned $735 million sale of bombs to Israel, according to an early draft of the legislation obtained by Jewish Currents.

The resolution would halt the planned transfer of so-called JDAMs, or Joint Direct Attack Munitions, and of Small Diameter Bombs, both of which are bombs outfitted with special guidance systems to hit their intended targets. Both types of explosive are made by the Chicago-based weapons manufacturer Boeing. Israel has used JDAMs and Small Diameter Bombs in its current attack on Gaza, according to Al Jazeera Arabic.

“At a time when so many, including our President, support a ceasefire, we should not be sending ‘direct attack’ weaponry to Prime Minister Netanyahu to prolong this violence. It is long past time to end the US policy of unconditional military arms sales, particularly to governments that have violated human rights,” read an email from Ocasio-Cortez’s office obtained by Jewish Currents that called on her congressional colleagues to support her bill.

palestinians are saying that social media is indeed helping to spread awareness about the atrocities that are happening in their homeland so please never think that sharing posts on your accounts is useless!! it is working!! this is one of the rare cases where social media can actually be used as an active tool and it has never happened before regarding the palestinian cause so we must keep on doing this collectively

stop calling what is happening between israel and palestine a “conflict.” a conflict infers both sides have an equal power. what is happening in palestine shows none of that. this isn’t a conflict, it’s ethnic cleansing, oppression, and apartheid.

Free Palestine is not an antisemitic statement.

The Israeli-Palestine situation is not religious based, it’s land based. Religion came in the picture incidental decades after the conflict began.

Free Palestine is not an antisemitic statement.

Calling out “Israel” for it’s violence against the land currently known as Palestine is not blaming Jewish people and communities for said violence. There are Israeli Muslims, Palestinian Jews and Christians of both backgrounds.

There were already thousands of Jewish people in Palestine before British rule.

Calling out “Israel” means holding accountable the government/military actions oppressing the people of Palestine. Not blaming the innocent Jewish citizens of the land.

Free Palestine is not an antisemitic statement.

It’s an opposition to this loss of life and land, not to any religious belief.

Free Palestine is not an antisemitic statement.

Freeing Palestine means giving its people self-determination on what is and is not their own ancestral land. The optimal way is to peacefully decide this.

The government/military of the state known as Israel have killed hundreds of innocent civilians of Palestine. They were met with peaceful protests. They responded with violence. Then they were met with violence in the name of self-defense. They responded with more violence.

Free Palestine is not an antisemitic statement.

Of course, Jewish people know far too well the cost of bloodshed and religious persecution that force innocents to become refugees, lose their families and have their homes ripped apart bloodily, inhumanely and unjustly.

That is the current state of innocents in Palestine.

Free Palestine is not an antisemitic statement.

No, the issue is not black and white. Innocents in the land known as Israel have been hurt regardless of religious affiliation. Innocents in the land known as Palestine have been hurt regardless of religious affiliation.

The black and white of it is that there are the oppressed and the oppressors.

Free Palestine is not an antisemitic statement.

Freeing Palestine does not mean being diametrically opposed to the original definition of Zionism which is reparations for Jewish peoples in the form of a partial ethnic-state. 

The land currently known as Israel was not the only place considered for said goal; Madagascar, Ethiopia, Germany and several others were considered before outer Western oppressive powers mandated the state of Israel - a choice done with only temporary consent by those of the land then known as Palestine. 

Those same Western oppressive powers would have hurt whatever country they’d chosen and none of that would’ve been the fault of the Jewish people. 

Free Palestine is not an antisemitic statement.

Jews have ALWAYS existed in Palestine.

Free Palestine is not an antisemitic statement.

Free Palestine is simply a call to the end of illegal warfare, eviction, apartheid and religious persecution of innocent people in the land that is known as Palestine by the federal government of the state of Israel.

It is a call to prevent the exportation of refugees, the destruction of innocents, the airstrikes on public places and the bodies of innocent children lying dead and bloodied on the streets in the land of Israel-Palestine.

Free Palestine is not an antisemitic statement.

It is a call to end the expansion of an oppressive state. Not to hurt Jews, nor kick them out individually nor to kill them. Just to free all involved from the warfare of an imposed and invading state.

Plenty of people with argue against this. I pity them for being uninformed and so adamant on their beliefs which may unintentionally or intentionally perpetuate violence on both communities - to paint either the Jewish or Arab peoples and/or their respective religions as violent or propagandistic.

Free Palestine is not an antisemitic statement.

“Free Palestine” is a call for peace and justice in the face of violent, unjust colonial settlement and ethnic cleansing.

Don’t make me regret posting this.

Aaaand sign off. Mainstream Western media, Ladies and Gentlemen. Believe it or not, this reporter was actually somewhat professional by the typical standards we see from channels like CNN. I’ve seen much worse.

Watch the full interview here: https://www.instagram.com/p/COuuzG1l_yj/ 

Kurd’s comment on the interview: “I knew this interview was going to have a biased, inaccurate framing, and it did from the start. But I made sure I course corrected. I’m happy that you cannot edit a live interview, because there’s no way I could have spoken so bluntly about the myth of “both sides” and Israeli “self-defense” had this been prerecorded. Thanks CNN for taking my testimony about settler-colonialism.“

Here are some backups. Because some social media - like Instagram, occasionally delete some posts about what’s happening in Palestine.

jewish =/= israeli btw

not all jews are israeli and most jews worldwide are abhorred by israel’s actions. there are palestinian jews too. dont turn this into antisemitism (hatred of All jews), make sure it stays anti-Zionism (anti-israel’s colonization of palestine)
