In honor of Ireland, Norway, and Spain recognizing Palestine. Here are my favorite former East Germany (DDR) art in solidarity with Palestine. (The DDR along with Malta, the former socialist/communist countries of Albania, Czech Republic, and Serbia, where the first European countries to recognize Palestine).

Now that I have you here, here's the Creators for Palestine link which goes to four Palestinian organizations:

And a post that talks about getting esims to Gaza:

Happy International Day of Solidarity with the Palestinian People, world.  First observed in 1977, this day was founded by the United Nations in recognition of the 1947 partition of Palestine that ultimately did not protect its people from ending up as a stateless nation.  Alas, Palestine.
