I feel like I'm unraveling at the seams the way everything is trying to force our attention away from what is happening in Gaza. The "aid" offered by the US and EU backed occupation is nothing but chokepoint deathtraps for civilians who are otherwise starving to death. Other aid is barred from entry while innocent people die. My head is reeling at the injustice of it.

It literally makes me feel like I'm losing my mind that almost no one in the global north on here will speak about, or even react to, the fact that the US is literally funding Israeli owned death traps for starving families.

The United States and Israel have made it impossible for all actual aid to enter Gaza. Then, private contractors from the United States created the Gaza Humanitarian Foundation (GHF), with Israeli support, to "take over" aid distribution. They are preventing aid distribution by all humanitarian groups in Gaza that distribute aid in coordination with the U.N., and replacing them with GHF. These GHF sites are set up in collaboration with Israeli military to lure in starving families and gun them down.

btw you should absolutely read stuff you don't agree with. you should think critically about it. you should reflect and find different stimuli and maybe even form your own thought based on or opposed to it. ideas aren't contagious and reading words someone else has told you are "bad" won't infect you like a virus and make you "evil". read with your own brain.

Taim in Gaza, 2025.

Eman's family is still suffering so much.

Her father is still recovering from getting shot in the back.

They are hungry every day, food is rare and expensive.

They go days at a time with no donations.

Even as little as 5 Euros helps.

They need some hope. Please donate to them. They are verified, #12 on el-shab-hussein's list. I have also personally been in direct contact with Eman for months.

what can we even do now? i mean this seriously, i've been donating every month, i've boosted, i've tried to share the truth, but it just doesn't stop. what can we do? this is madness it's always been madness, it's inhumane, it's demonic. how can we save them?

you keep doing it. i know it's tough because what you're doing is long-term work in a short-term emergency. but it matters regardless. now is not the time to stop anything, it's the time to do as much as you can. i shared this screenshot before, but here it is again:

from the new yorker interview with james elder UNICEF chief. key part of this sentence: there is big international pressure and israel loosens controls

there has to be big international pressure. you are part of this. israel has spent 75 years becoming as resilient as possible to big international pressure. it takes an international outcry to let in a paltry can of baby formula. but without you doing what you've been doing, there won't be the pressure even for that. so anything you do now to increase pressure is the most important thing you'll do today. and for everyone else reading this, don't forget to donate to the sameer project

I will talk about a topic that no one has mentioned before, the topic of the exorbitant prices of goods in the Gaza Strip, a topic that no one has talked about before.

it's really embarrassing how much self control i have to exert when you put me in front of a tray of convenient and tender meat like if you put meatballs in front if me the fuckers are gone in milliseconds. same true of roadted brussels sprouts or basically anything that's a nice little dense and textured morsel. i am the hors that d'ouvres
