Graphic design artist Moataz Abu Sakran shares footage of the damage inflicted by the IOF on several famous mosques in north Gaza as Ramadan approaches. The first, Omari Mosque or the Great Mosque of Gaza, has been a religious site for over 3000 years, dating to the late-Bronze Age Philistine people. Religious buildings there have been destroyed many times. God willing, they will always be rebuilt.
PLEASE pay attention to what is happening at Al Aqsa today in Israel's racist flag march.
Palestinians need your support today! Keep your eyes on Israel, make sure you're watching their crimes.
Israeli settlers are entering the Old City in Jerusalem and marching on Al Aqsa mosque.
Occupation forces are forcing Palestinians to leave the area to protect the settlers. There are Palestinians in Al Aqsa mosque right now, and Israel is already trying to paint them as violent rioters and terrorists.
From Al-Jazeera:
Al Jazeera’s correspondent Najwan Simri said that Israeli forces have occupied the rooftop of the al-Qibli prayer hall in the compound on Sunday morning and besieged the worshippers inside it to enable the passage of settlers to go unhindered.
She added that the Israelis have prevented Palestinian journalists and photographers from entering Al-Aqsa Mosque and threatened them with arrest.
Israeli forces have fired rubber bullets at Palestinians protesters in the compound, in an effort to disperse them.
Some Jews entering the Al-Aqsa Mosque compound attempted to pray, incensing Palestinians.
Jewish worship is not permitted in the Al-Aqsa Mosque compound by Israeli law, and it is also forbidden by the Chief Rabbinate of Israel.
And I only expect things to get much more violent. Remember these far right Israelis are the very same who chanted "Death to Arabs" and called for a second Nakba. These are violent nationalists who want us dead.
13 Zionist Israeli settlers were seen, carrying lambs and goats, including one concealed in a shopping bag and another hidden in a baby carriage, as they attempted to access the al-Aqsa mosque compound and sacrifice them in as part of religious ritual.
john is so interesting because i don't think i've ever consumed a piece of media where there is a character who is a god and became one within a pre-exisiting cultural context of other gods, which they then use to justify their actions. like by the end of the gospel of john within ntn it is clear that john was power hungry and he killed everyone on earth because no one could stop him and he felt he had the right to decide the fate of all of humanity because he knew better than everyone else... and he's trying to convince himself everything he did was fine and good because the earth needed to be wiped clean to begin anew without evil, like the story of the flood. he genocided everyone on earth and killed the rest of the planets in the galaxy to consume all their souls and get revenge on the trillionaires who were going to abandon everyone to the climate apocalypse and he's using christian mythology to justify it. there's a lot to unpack there

The Great (Omari) Mosque of Gaza (406 AD-2023 AD) started its life as a Byzantine church built by Saint Eudocia (wife of Theodosius II). After the Muslim conquest of the 7th century it became a mosque, and was sacked or partially destroyed by the Crusaders, Ayyubids, Mongols, and British (plus damage from one earthquake in the 11th century). Nevertheless, it persisted...until last night when it was bombed to smithereens by an Israeli airstrike.
Aside from the one color photo and the photo right below that, all photos above were taken after the 1917 British shelling of Ottoman positions (the Brits blamed the explosion at the mosque on ammunition the Ottomans had been storing there).
got reminded of the "saying Arabs conquered and colonized North Africa is Zionist because obviously no one saying that coulx possibly draw a distinction between North African Arabs and Palestinian Arabs, and even drawing a distinction between Arabs and Imazighen is colonizer shit" school of thought
the attack on a church in Jerusalem today is just another reason why you must always talk about zionism being foremost anti-Palestinian and a promoter of Jewish supremacy meaning the goal is to completely judaize the region by removing all evidence of other religious (and ethnic) ties to the land
