I was able to watch some of Bisan's live earlier too! She spoke about how many in Gaza are seeing what is happening across university campuses and they're so happy/cheerful about everyone coming out to support Palestine and to protest Israeli war crimes and the ongoing mass genocide against Palestinian people. She emphasized for us, as a global community, to keep going -to keep protesting, to keep boycotting, and to keep making an impact -and then I saw that she posted this video, and I wanted to talk about it here too because yes -we will never stop talking about Palestine.

Do you condemn the murder of children? Or is it complicated when it’s middle eastern children? When it’s brown children? When it’s Muslim children? Is it complicated when they don’t speak English? When you can’t understand their cries for help? Is it complicated when the news tells you it is? When they lie? Is it complicated because you can’t let go of the idea that your friends and your politicians know everything, or is it complicated because you don’t care for the lives dying in this genocide?

The evidence is undeniable by anybody with a shred of morals and a brain at all. Only the uneducated, stupid, ignorant, or evil continue to support the Israeli government’s war crimes, genocide, and apartheid state. It isn’t antisemetic to support Palestine, it’s the intellectually and morally correct stance. Free Palestine, fuck Israel.

The USA just signed off a nearly 100b military aid for Ukraine, Israel and Taiwan. But one of these is not like the others.

Ukraine was invaded by Russia.

Taiwan has been pressured to unify with the mainland and in some cases is actively erased and written off as part of china (eg. some airline companies are forbade from flying to Taiwan by china because 'Taiwan doesn't exist')

Israel is the aggressors, they're committing genocide. Palestine is the one being invaded, erased and demonised.

26 billion dollars is to be spent on 'military aid' for Israel, most of which will be weapons. The news articles often focus on Ukraine because it got the most money, the billions that are going towards the Gaza genocide barely get a mention in US news.

And any mention describes the funding as 'to fight Hamas militants and fend off airstrikes from Iran', not 'massacring Palestinians and antagonising other countries'.

It's fucking sick.

Don't be swayed by the propaganda, don't be ignorant, don't forget.

From the river to the sea, Palestine will be free.

Know their names, not just numbers..

"Unidentified martyr, chubby and tall, wearing a raspberry-colored & black tracksuit." - Gaza, 2024.

His name was Yasser Mamdouh Al-Fadi, he was a journalist. He was shot by an IOF sniper on 11-02 inside Nasser Hospital & was buried in a mass grave at the hospital during the seige.

The IOF bulldozed the graves of dozens of martyrs later on, rendering them unrecognizable.

He was injured while covering Al-Aqsa Intifada in 2000 & was injured again while covering the return marches in 2018.

Rest In Peace..

Nothing like hearing how my mom and grandma are at a university assisting college students who got tased by cops because they were protesting for Israel to stop committing genocide.

That was the first thing I heard when I got home-

What the hell happened to first amendment rights? Because all I see now is that the freedom of protest and the freedom of speech doesn't apply when people speak out against genocide.

I live in such a hypocritical country, good lord.

Palestine will be free

في حقول أشجار الزيتون والحجارة القديمة, شعب فلسطين يقف بقوة وشجاعة. ترتفع أصواتهم في انسجام تام وقلوبهم ملتهبة من أجل العدالة والحرية وإنقاذ أرضهم.

من شوارع غزة إلى أبواب القدس, أرواحهم تضيء ظلام الليل الحالك. في وجه الظلم، لن يجبنوا, لأن فلسطين ستكون حرة في نظرهم.

قد يغض العالم الطرف، ويتجاهل محنتهم, لكن صمود الروح الفلسطينية يسطع من خلالهم. رغم أن الدموع قد تنهمر والدماء قد تسيل, يبقى إصرارهم ثابتاً وصادقاً.

إنهم يحلمون بمستقبل يتساوى فيه الجميع, حيث يستطيع الأطفال اللعب دون خوف من الأذى. حيث تمحى الحدود وتتوحد القلوب, رؤية سلام، منارة في العاصفة.

فليشهد العالم على قوتهم, للأمل الذي يتوهج في عيونهم. لأنه على الرغم من المصاعب التي يتحملونها كل يوم, فلسطين ستكون حرة تحت السماء اللازوردية.

In fields of olive trees and ancient stones, the people of Palestine stand strong and brave. Their voices rise in unison and their hearts are burning for justice and freedom and to save their land.

From the streets of Gaza to the gates of Jerusalem, their spirits illuminate the darkness of the night. In the face of injustice, they will not cower, because Palestine will be free in their eyes.

The world may turn a blind eye and ignore their plight, but the steadfastness of the Palestinian spirit shines through. Although tears may flow and blood may be shed, their determination remains steadfast and sincere.

They dream of a future where everyone is equal, where children can play without fear of harm. Where borders are erased and hearts are united, a vision of peace, a beacon in the storm.

May the world bear witness to their strength, to the hope that glows in their eyes. Because despite the hardships they endure every day, Palestine will be free under the azure sky.

Hello, I am from (Rafah) in the refugee camp. I have left my parents at home, my younger siblings have been relying on me for their education, due to the family being economically poor, I took the responsibility of going to do domestic work. in 2017 in the (Gaza) Strip. In the family I was working for, everything was destroyed after riots broke out, the house was bombed, and unexpected deaths occurred frequently. And that's when we ran to Rafah. I am facing the challenge of leaving there (Rafah) because my mother is sick, she has 3C colon cancer, and my father has type 2 diabetes. I am their biggest support, the cost of leaving (Rafah) is $5000 and those it's too much money, I can't afford it right now. Please, I am at your feet, I am asking for your help so I can get home. Thank you🙏 DONATE AND SHARE

Hi, I am so sorry you have to go through this. It must be really difficult for you and I really wish I could help you and your family but I'm still economically dependant on my parents, who are refusing to donate anything. I'll share your message to other users and hopefully they might be able to donate money.

I apologise once again and I hope you and your family get to leave Rafah in the near future

I’m so proud of them all.

Free Palestine 🇵🇸

Liberation for all

[hack-saw2004]

platforming palestinian joy is just as important as sharing the suffering they're enduring during this genocide. despite continued displacement and bombardment, you cannot steal their joy and spirit. happy birthday to this sweet baby 🖤🇵🇸 may they grow up to see a free palestine

edit: @saffronlesbian made a video description for this post!!

[vd: a screen recording of a tweet from the 20th of April 2024 with 2.5 million views, from Ruhi @/ruhi_hi. the caption reads, "This video of this little Palestinian angel celebrating his bday in a refugee camp" followed by three emoji of a smiling face with teary eyes. the video clip is 11 seconds long and shows a one-year-old baby seated on the sandy ground, smiling hugely and clapping his hands while people sing to him from offscreen and a large cake is placed in front of him. stuck into the top of the cake is a decoration that reads "happy birthday" in english. the video has the tiktok handle @/ibrahim.jamal99 visible in it. /end vd.]

Don’t stop talking about Palestine 🇵🇸

Being from Gaza, Palestine is so different.

I tell people I'm from Gaza and I get pity, I get the "oh... do you have family there?" and I have to act tough, I am tough, it runs in my veins. Being from Gaza is expecting that reaction, the sorrow, it's dealing with dumbass people everyday, it's getting the "can you go there?" question. (No i cant btw).

I am from Gaza, I feel emotions just like everyone else, I feel anger and hurt and longing for a place I cant visit, I feel love and comfort and right now I feel alone and like im yelling at the world to pay attention and NO ONE CARES.

I am from Gaza, my thoughts belong to Gaza, my heart, my skin color, the way I speak, the way I say words a bit differently than the rest of the Palestinians, the way I wish I was a filmmaker to share my culture with the world.

I am from Gaza, i am aware of how different my people are, i am aware that i grew up differently, I am aware I grew up looking at the news from my grandparents television with my aunt waiting for news about her family, I am aware that I have trauma in my veins, I am aware that my culture is taken over and that I can't really speak about it, I am aware that not everyone experiences your aunt screaming that her brother died and yelling "He's apart of my soul, my soul died"

I am from Gaza, I hurt, I feel, I love, I care and my heart, soul and mind all belong to my beautiful land and its people.

"A Palestinian family in Tal al-Sultan camp, west of Rafah, decorates its tent in preparation for the month of Ramadan in order to preserve Ramadan customs and bring joy and happiness to the children to alleviate the effects of war." from Belal Khaled, 02/Mar/2024:
