Genocide. Forced displacement. Ethnic cleansing. It’s simple. It’s right in front of your eyes.

Over 100,000 Palestinian have been killed, maimed, injured and buried alive under the carnage.

Ceasefire now !!!

For those who don't know due to the overwhelming number of persons reaching out to Operation Olive Branch they have temporarily closed the referral section. A lot of families still aren't on their list but need help as well.

Mohamed's goal is at 10k and he's only got $1,000 so far. Please let's help him and his family.

Another family I hope to help:

Roshdi's mother messaged me to share their gofundme. Read their full story and if you can please try to help even if it's a small donation. This is Roshdi's Instagram.

Please please share. That literally takes nothing and someone who can give will eventually come across it.

Canada is a backchannel for Israeli illegal settlements:

Mizrachi Canada has been listed as a charity organisation since 1979. But it was only in 2022, after activists exerted pressure for more information, that it disclosed that some of the recipients of its funds in Israel were organisations like Regavim, a radical pro-settler group that is forcibly taking over Palestinian lands. The CRA has yet to take any action against Mizrachi Canada, which faces multiple allegations including violation of the Income Tax Act, the Crimes Against Humanity and War Crimes Act, and going against official Canadian policy.

Cannot bring myself to engage with this but I wanted to share some of the rhetoric I’ve been seeing. This was posted with Free Palestine tags and also pro life and anti abortion tags

“I GREW UP with elders that were self-hating Mexicans,” Sarah explained, as we sat in our hotel room in Michoacán the next day. “They were taught they had nothing to be proud of and everything to be ashamed of. They needed to assimilate. To be happy in America was to be as white as possible.”

Sarah’s grandparents moved from Monterrey, Mexico, in the early twentieth century and settled in the East Los Angeles neighborhood known as Chavez Ravine. In 1950, the government sent letters to the 1,800 families of Chavez Ravine, mostly low income Mexican American farmers, informing them that they would have to sell their homes to make way for public housing. The displaced families were promised new schools and playgrounds and housing priority when the developments were finished. Instead, after removing the families and destroying a community, the city of Los Angeles scrapped the public housing plan and partnered with a New York businessman to build Dodger Stadium. Supporters of the new stadium, including Ronald Reagan, called the critics “baseball haters.”

‘A chance to implement forced displacement’: Israeli settlers are attacking Palestinians in the West Bank

“Settler violence in the West Bank has been increasing for months, but Palestinians interviewed by Novara Media reported a marked escalation since 7 October. While international attention has been on Israel’s bombardment of Gaza, at least 64 Palestinians – several of them children – have been killed by Israeli soldiers and settlers in the West Bank, and hundreds more have been wounded.

“Palestinians living in the West Bank said they believe settlers are using the ongoing crisis in Gaza as an opportunity to accelerate their goal of ethnic cleansing. They described settlers breaking into properties, bulldozing homes and water wells, cutting off electricity and burning tents with greater frequency than usual. ‘This is to make people afraid, the message is that the next step is going to be killing you if you don’t leave this land,’ said Adra. At least two Palestinian villages are reported to have been entirely depopulated by settlers forcing residents to leave.

“Settlers have been targeting Palestinians living in Area C, which constitutes about 60% of the West Bank and is where the majority of illegal Israeli settlers live. ‘It’s scary because these settlers are now wearing uniforms, have guns and are claiming that they are the reserve army,’ Adra said. ‘These attacks are not a new thing. The settlers always planned for this: to take our land, and to kick us out of Area C. Now’s the chance to do it, because everyone is focused on Gaza.’

“Hamed Qawasmeh, coordinator for the Hebron International Resources Fund, a charity that supports Palestinians living near settlements, also sees the attacks as opportunistic. ‘The settlers feel that they have a free hand at this point to do what they have always wanted – which is to attack Palestinians, strategically,’ he said. ‘They see this as a chance to implement forced displacement of the Palestinian population.’

“Settler violence is being aided and abetted by Israel’s far-right government. Last week, Israel’s security minister, Itamar Ben-Gvir, announced plans to immediately distribute 10,000 rifles to settlers.”
