Journalist Wadea Abu Alsaoud documents materiel left behind by the occupation. He shows a crate of explosive cartridges, and points out the markings that show the bombs as products of the USA. The camera then pans around the area in which he’s standing, where rubble towers above him on every side, a house has been completely destroyed, and every building in sight is severely damaged.

On the starvation that the people in Gaza are facing:

English Translation:

A dear friend of mine called me a few days ago. He needed money as his infant son hasn't eaten in more than 30 hours, and his son, who's no more than two years old, has been exhausted by hunger. After an hour, I called him so he can receive the money he asked for, but communications were cut off. Four days later, I called him to receive the money and he told me "No need, brother, the children are now with God."

It is catastrophic!

No more can be said!

To God we belong and to him we return.*

[*A qur'anic verse translated into English. It is quoted by Muslims during times of crisis, especially when someone dies]

End of translation

Israel, the US, and all those backing up this Genocide will be remembered for the blood on their hands.

Keep talking about Palestine!

Note: After consulting a professional, I edited my translation of "الحدث جلل" to be "it is catastrophic!". A suggested translation in the reblogs was "it is tragic!". If you need to comment on anything in my translation, please tell me and I'll look into it further to make sure everything is as accurate as possible. Thank you.

This is Rafah, The "safe" zone, where 1.5 million Palestinian fled to. You have to understand, what bombing Rafah means.

Please don't look away, while everybody is busy watching the super bowl, Israel commits one of its most deadly and openly genocidal attacks on Rafah. Please don't look away.

Living on a planet where any government is allowed to go through with military action that they know will result in the death of civilians should be gut-wrenchingly painful for all of us. Over 10,000 children have died in Palestine since October 7th, and there is not a single child in Gaza who is not suffering. CHILDREN. INFANTS. I can't stop thinking about all the innocent children we are losing and leaving to suffer every day.

Please use whatever privilege you have to do whatever you can during the Global Strike for Palestine (January 21st - 28th). Contact your representatives. Call for an immediate ceasefire. Boycott, stimulate the economy as minimally as possible, participate in pro-Palestinian protests, educate yourself, and most importantly, amplify the voices of Palestinians.

I'm never going to understand why westerners continue acting so surprised that most of latino américa and other countries with large indigenous and majority mixed populations are so consistent with supporting palestinian freedom. Like, amorcito cómo q pienses q vamos a dejar q ustedes repiten su misma moda de dejar nuestra alma llena de sangre, de muerte. claro q no. ya sabemos cómo va con diablitos. ya no vamos a crear en putas mentiras.

I just wanted to share this article about Palestine's right to revolt and why it is important that we support it. It also has sources embedded in the text that debunk misinformation about them and Hamas. I implore everyone to read it and spread this information around.

Using a fear of Palestinian revenge as justification for the occupation is both wild and familiar

Aint nobody thinking about vengeance after getting freedom 😭 all we wanna do on this planet is drink chilled juice and not die
