The Death Toll of the Earthquake that hit Turkey and Syria may have reached 20,000 people, and that’s outside of all those who are injured and lost.

If you could donate PLEASE do!!!

Here’s a post full of charities you could donate to, but I’ll add my own trustworthy ones here:

Islamic Relief:  teams are on the ground right now providing emergency food assistance, shelter, medical supplies to hospitals and clinics, as well as blankets and tents for those made homeless by the quake in Turkey and Syria

Molham: The team at Molham are currently on the ground helping displaced families in Turkey and Syria who have been affected by the earthquake   

The White Helmets: The team are on the ground in Northwest Syria searching for survivors and removing the dead from the rubble.

MSF: remaining in close contact with the local authorities in northwestern Syria and with the authorities in Turkey to extend their support where it’s needed. They’re providing essential life kits to displaced people in the region

please PLEASE reblog. Syria and Turkiye need our help!!!

The stupid ass racist fucks who are happy about the earthquake and the deaths in Turkey, Syria and Lebanon, are a disgrace to humankind and I want to spit in all of their faces.

It's that time of year when you are going to see some "Irish" t-shirts in stores and can get your Shamrock Shake at Mickey D's. There will be St. Patrick's Day parades this weekend and next.

And I just want to be a nerdy know-it-all for a second. St Patrick's Day was originally a religious holiday (as most holidays were, holy + day = holiday); it still is in some places, like some actual Irish people from Ireland who believe in God--though the American parade/festival mentality seems to be gaining steam in some parts of Ireland, I am told.

St Patrick's Day as we know it is deeply rooted in the United States. Though it's been celebrated here since 1600 in the territory that became Florida, the tenor of the holiday greatly changed after the Great Famine of Ireland.

You may have been told in school that the famine occurred because a blight wiped out potato crops in Ireland. This is true but doesn't address the crux of the matter.

The blight started in North America and travelled to Ireland and into much of Europe. But we only think of it as an Irish problem because the Irish were too poor to eat other foods.

Some scholars have said it was a "man made crisis" and I agree that is true. Other crops in Ireland were not affected by the blight, in fact, this time was considered one of "plenty", but all that food was used to feed the English. Not the Irish.

Nor were the English quick on providing aid, "There is such a tendency to exaggeration and inaccuracy in Irish reports that delay in acting on them is always desirable," said Prime Minister Sir Robert Peel after initial reports of the catastrophe.

Workhouses designed to assist the poor and starving were closed prematurely. "The only way to prevent the people from becoming habitually dependent on Government is to bring the food depots to a close," said Charles Trevelyan, the man who was literally in charge of famine relief. He also said some gems like, Sure the famine is bad but "the moral evil of the selfish, perverse and turbulent character of the people" was the real problem. Great guy; he became a Baronet.

The soup kitchens, which replaced the workhouses were also closed prematurely, were widely believed to serve portions too small even for children and lacking any nutritional value due to them being watered down to feed more people than anticipated by the brilliant British government.

A million people died in Ireland from famine and disease and nearly 2 million left Ireland for other parts of the world. Including my father's family. (If they survived the "Coffin Ships" leaving their home.)

So when I said above that the tenor of the holiday changed, it was because of increasing Irish Nationalism and anger at Britain. Now, Ireland is a Republic (though it's not unified, yet) and we are proud of those who stayed and fought to make that happen.

We are also proud just to still be alive anywhere. The population of Ireland is 6.9 million now--slowly nearing the 8.5 million it was home to before the famine--but people with Irish ancestry across the world has been measured to be about 80 million people. Take that, Sir Robert Peel.

The English actively tried to kill us. Nevertheless, we persisted. A lot.

I hope you have a Happy St. Paddy's Day (it's Paddy not Patty). Drink some Guinness. Dance some jigs. Definitely eat some potatoes (Boil 'em! Mash 'em! Stick 'em in a stew!) But please remember that when people are starving, you should feed them. Don't be like the English government.

In fact, as I write this there is a crisis in Turkey and Syria. It just so happens that the Sultan of Turkey wanted to donate money to Ireland (10,000 pounds) but since Queen Victoria donated just 2,000, he was told it would be against protocol.

the videos coming out of the earthquakes are devastating, and even more with context. they hit right where the refugee camps are. 12 years of war and brutality by the assad regime, with russia vetoing any humanitarian aid as well. near negative temperatures and families fleeing to crumbled infrastructure only for it to collapse on them. i can't imagine the trauma of the region, either. how many woke up to their houses shaking and the sounds of building collapses and the earth screaming and got triggered because they thought they were getting bombed? already estimates of dead are 20,000 with 3400 confirmed. its too much.

Read !!

Guys please pray for Syria and Turkey

The people are dying and because of the American and European sanctions => cargo airplanes refuse to land on Syrian airports so there's no equipmens to save the Syrian

This is a humanitarian situation and a natural disaster it's not political,

Imagine not dying but listening to your loved ones under ground asking for your help and you feel helpless and end up hearing them taking their last breath while you are just standing there.

Until now only 5 countries have helped

Algeria

Tunisia

Iraq

emirates

Russia

And this is only because the other countries are afraid of destroying their connections!!!

I don't know what's happening but humanity is over.

And on the top of that FRENcH is making fun of the situation and laughing at the kids who are buried and dying just because turkey and Syria are Muslim countries !!!

"The French satirical magazine has once again come under fire for its provocative comic strips."

Use your voice please it's not about politics it's not about religion it's about being a human being it's about distinguishing between what's right and what's wrong.

Please donate to the Earthquake Appeal, link below.

Right now Israel is doing an air raid at the city center of Damascus. 15 dead 28 wounded. People thought it was an earthquake, went out of their homes and got killed by missile debris.

I cannot even begin to express my disgust for the way this particular country is allowed to use real, unscrupulous terrorism while having unwavering Western support. Killing people, citizens, in a residential neighborhood, in the middle of the night, while the country is barely coping with an earthquake that has killed thousands only days ago. Shame and disgust.

[academiccockroach]

Hello hi if donating is your thing (and you have the funds ofc) may I politely slide this link over? White Helmets helps survivors of the recent devastating earthquake in Syria. The organisation is suggested and vouched for by my Syrian friend, it is entirely legitimate!

<3 Ty so much for any support you can give even if it's only a reblog!

[moonlayl]

Please can you publish trustworthy links for donating to Syria so it helps reach the less supported people?

There are 3 main ones I know of (I have family in Syria that are directly affected)

1. Molham

I've included a link to where people can donate and here is a link to their twitter page where they're giving regular updates. Here's a third link to donate in Euros

Molham, to those who don't know, are specifically a non profit, non government team that have been providing relief for displaced & refugee Syrians. They're now helping out with the Earth Quake.

2. The White Helmets 

Currently searching  for survivors and pull ing the dead from collapsed buildings

3. Islamic Relief (this link should work for all countries donating)

Has for a very long time been extremely reliable. I usually donate through them and they tend to help out people all cross the world. They currently have a team in Syria, last I've heard.

here's a link if you're donating specifically in Canada, UK, America,

please PLEASE donate.

Even one dollar, one pound, can go a long way.

And if you can't, PLEASE reblog!!

Syria needs help too! Syria matters too! They're not receiving aid for a variety of political reasons and they desperately need it!!!

[grits-galraisedinthesouth]

I cannot wrap my head around the devastation. From what I can gather, survivors are cold and in need of shelter (tents), warm clothes, meals, and medical attention. I so wish that we could trust every organization to do right by its donors, but unfortunately this is not the case. Several years ago I was shocked to learn that our local cancer institute purchased💰 donated blood from the Red Cross🤑🤬

I also found our American Cancer Society to be a financial disappointment.🧐🤑

If you are looking for ways to help, I recommend Doctor's Without Borders. May God have mercy.

A baby girl has been reportedly rescued from the rubble of her home in northern Syria following Monday's massive earthquake.

Her umbilical cord was still attached to her mother when she was found, a relative told Agence France-Presse. Her mother is believed to have died after giving birth.

"We heard a voice while we were digging," cousin Khalil al-Suwadi told the AFP on Tuesday. "We cleared the dust and found the baby with the umbilical cord (intact), so we cut it and my cousin took her to hospital."

The rescued newborn is now receiving treatment at a children's hospital in the town of Afrin, where pediatrician Hani Maarouf told the AFP that she is stable but arrived with bruises, lacerations and hypothermia.

She is believed to be the sole survivor of her immediate family, according to Suwadi. They lived in a five-story apartment building that was leveled by the quake.
