🚨 We Need Your Kindness to Survive 🚨

Hello, My name is Mosab Elderawi, and I live in Gaza with my family. Life here has become harder than I ever imagined, and I’m writing this with hope in my heart that you might hear our story.

The ongoing war has devastated my family. We���ve lost 25 family members—each one a beloved part of our lives, taken too soon. I miss them deeply—their laughter, their presence, their love. Every day is a reminder of this unimaginable loss.

We are now facing daily challenges to survive—things that most people take for granted, like food, clean water, and a safe place to sleep. The harsh realities of life here have replaced our dreams with the constant fight for survival.

Our Current Situation:

💔 Lost Stability: The war has left us without work or a stable source of income. 🍞 Basic Needs: Food and water are becoming harder to afford with rising prices and scarce resources. 📚 Dreams on Hold: Like so many here, my family’s dreams have been replaced by the need to simply survive. 😢 Unimaginable Loss: Losing 25 loved ones has left a void that can never be filled.

How You Can Help:

I’m sharing our story with the hope that someone out there might care. Even $5 can make a big difference for us, and if you’re unable to donate, just reblogging this post can help spread the word.

Your kindness, no matter how small, is something we’ll never forget.

What This Means to Us:

Your support is not about changing our entire situation—it’s about giving us a little relief, a little hope, and a way to keep going. We are not asking for much, and we understand if you can’t donate. Sharing our story is just as valuable to us as a donation.

Thank you for reading this far. It means the world to us to know that someone is listening. Your kindness gives us strength and helps us believe in a better tomorrow.

With all our gratitude, Mosab Elderawi and Family ❤️

Post from the official IDF twitter account. I don’t know who thought that this would be a fun or silly thing to post but it is absolutely disgusting. Making a silly post about how many people you have slaughtered (thousands being civilians and children) during your genocide is vile and disgusting.

this is my friend Mai. she was the main caretaker in her family. in the last weeks the situation has worsened.

her brother had already had 80 stitches in his arm, which demands ongoing care and essential medications for recovery

she has been diagnosed with hepatitis due to the contaminated food and water in gaza

her mother's heart issues have worsened: she already had a heart device implanted, but her condition is degradings and the medicine that she now needs to survive costs 350$ FOR A WEEK ALONE

her dad who has managed to get to egypt is suddenly fell ill, and he is now needing a catheterization procedure to have a stent placed. the cost of the procedure ranges from $1300 to $1500

these are things that her family simply cannot afford! imagine the horror you must feel in such a situation! the survival of her family depends on YOUR DONATIONS!!!!!!!!!

i cannot imagine the pain that she must feel. what is happening is a genocide and simply horrifying. this is your chance to help.

🇵🇸🇵🇸Dear compassionate friends🇵🇸🇵🇸

My name is Lubna Alajrami, and I am a devoted mother from Gaza. At 30 years old, I cherish my three beautiful children: Eline, aged 7, Kinda, 2, and my precious son, Nasser, who is 4 years old.🤗

Amidst this dire situation,My heart aches for my son Nasser, who is 4 years old, and suffers from a thyroid problem that has caused him delayed growth and mental retardation. We lack the means to provide him with medical treatment and the most basic necessities, such as diapers and milk. Urgent medical care is imperative, but our current circumstances are beyond our reach. I cannot provide treatment nor buy Pampers, which are now priced at $70.💔💔

My family, including my husband, three kids, and I once led a content and joyous life in the North of Gaza. However, the onset of war-shattered our dreams, our home, and our means of sustenance. Today, we find ourselves with nothing but the fragments of what was once our life.😭😭💔💔💔

My husband, Rami, works as a home electrician. He moved away from us for 3 years so that he could raise the money necessary to build a beautiful house for our family and to open a shop that would be a source of livelihood for our family. But the war destroyed our house and our shop, it destroyed everything beautiful. We became without a home or a source of livelihood.💔💔😭😭

Allow me to share with you the stark reality we face. With the outbreak of conflict, we sought refuge in the south, settling in Deer Albalah, clinging to the hope of safety until the storm of war abated. Yet, our reality is now a tent in a refugee camp devoid of basic amenities. Our living space is confined, lacking toilets, kitchens, and even access to clean water and electricity. For full year, we've endured the harshness of our circumstances, battling not only the physical challenges but also the pervasive illnesses that haunt the refugee camp. All these conditions directly affected my son Nasser's health for the worst. It breaks my heart to see my child suffering and needing medical aid while I have nothing I can do.😭😭💔💔💔

Hence, I ask you for your kindness and generosity to support our cause. This fundraising campaign aims to provide the necessary medical treatment and health care for Nasser, to secure milk and Pampers for my child, and to secure the life requirements of my family, because we are now without work and without a source of livelihood.💔💔🙏🙏🙏🙏

Your assistance can make a tangible difference in our lives. Here's how you can help:

Donate whatever amount you can afford to support our cause.

Share our fundraiser with your network, spreading awareness of our plight.

Keep us in your thoughts and prayers as we navigate these trying times.

No matter how small, every contribution is a beacon of hope for us. Your kindness and compassion will serve as a lifeline, guiding us towards a brighter tomorrow.

With heartfelt gratitude,

Lubna Alajrami

I am truly sorry about not being active on here for a long while. I will try my best to start up again and keep spreading news and information on Palestine. I may not be as active as I was before but I will try my best to stay on top of things.

Israel and the IDF are attacking and murdering Civilians. There is no other way to put this or even try to defend this. These are civilians. Some Elderly, some children and babies, some brothers or sisters or distant relatives, some teachers or doctors or regular people who you might have seen working at a store or walking down the street. Not Hamas members. Not terrorists. This is blatant disregard and trampling of the forth Geneva Convention and a War Crime. I don’t care about your stance on this because at this point you are either anti or pro Genocide. It Has been a year and nine days since this Genocide against the Palestinians began. A year and nine days of constant starvation, abuse, and violence against civilians. Israel has absolutely no right or actual reason to be bombing civilians and makeshift tent Hospitals (since Israel has bombed and sieged all the other Hospitals in Gaza). There is no reason or way to justify and defend this slaughter and massacre of innocent civilians trying to get help at a makeshift medical facility.

FREE PALESTINE AND STOP THIS GENOCIDE!

[watermelon-project-archive]

As we see what is happening in Lebanon, in Gaza we have been suffering the same massacres and genocide for almost a year, our suffering we do not know when it will end.

We have been cut off from food and medicine, since the first week we were forced to leave our homes and go to the south, and since we left our homes we have been moving from one place to another in search of a safe area to shelter our children and protect them from the enemy's massacres.

Where is the humanitarian community??

We are in dire need of help, my small family and I want nothing but safety and to live in peace.

My husband and I had a startup company, we worked in the field of programming systems, websites and electronic marketing, and our work was online and all our projects were for the Gulf countries and Saudi Arabia.

Since the war started, our company was bombed from the first hour, including our laptops and the company's devices, and we lost the trust of our customers due to the long period of power and internet outages. We are now without work, without shelter, without food. We carry our small tent over our heads and we move with our children, Mira and Nadia, from one place to another in search of safety that we have not found yet.

What injustice must we live through for the human community to help us!!

We are not used to asking for help from anyone, but what forced us were the circumstances we went through. How will we feed our children? How will we provide them with shelter?

All this while I am in the seventh month of pregnancy and I suffer from the risks and fears of childbirth under these circumstances, as epidemics and diseases have spread and there is no clean water to drink and no treatments for pregnancy.

I came to the Tumblr community thanks to the experience and you were the best community I have reached, any support or help whether through donations or sharing is like salvation for me and my family. 🙏

I need help not only to travel but also to provide food, treatment and shelter for me and my family, so please support my little family, 5€ is not a cost for you but its total helps me a lot in reaching my goal.

Thank you very much to everyone who helped me whether by donating, sharing or even asking about our conditions 🙏

274 Palestinian lives don’t matter to the Biden administration

This week provided further evidence – if any were lacking — that anti-Palestinian bias is simply a rule of American politics, and today maybe the leading rule.

Yesterday Israel killed 274 Palestinians and wounded hundreds more in Gaza’s Nuseirat refugee camp while freeing four Israeli hostages, and the U.S. promptly hailed the “rescue”. It is beyond question that this was an indiscriminate massacre, but Joe Biden saluted the Israeli action, and so did Secretary of State, without a mention of Palestinian lives.

“As if we needed more proof of how little this administration values Palestinian lives,” Khaled Elgindy wrote.

Mainstream reporters are horrified, but politely. After the last outrage earlier this week, when Israel killed dozens of Palestinians in a school, a reporter asked at the State Department: “People might find it very puzzling that you have the leverage of $3.8 billion of defense supplied to the Israelis per year, and you cannot compel this situation to change.”

The State Department said the U.S. has prodded Israel, and there’s been progress. “We have seen them [the Israelis] take improvements over time.”

So the U.S. keeps pouring money and weapons into Israel, and the Democratic base believes overwhelmingly that it’s a genocide, and Biden keeps saying he wants a ceasefire, but won’t apply any pressure to achieve it.

Republicans are at least more honest about their policy. Nikki Haley—a possible running mate for Trump —visited Israel at the end of May and wrote “Finish them” on an Israeli shell. Even as the death count in Gaza crossed 36,000.

This disdain for Palestinian life is consistent throughout the American establishment. Variety reported this week that a Hollywood marketing guru warned her employees that they should hit “pause on working with any celebrity or influencer or tastemaker posting against Israel.”

In an email, Ashlee Margolis said, “Anyone saying Israel is committing a ‘genocide’ is someone we will pause on working with, as that is simply not true…. While Jews are devastated by the loss of innocent lives in Gaza, we are feeling immense fear over the rising Jew Hatred all over the world.”

So again, Palestinian lives just don’t matter, next to Jewish fears.

This special degraded status for Palestinians has become an area of study for Palestinian intellectuals. Rabea Eghbariah, a human rights lawyer and doctoral student at Harvard, wrote a lengthy legal argument for a new term for the Palestinian condition.

“The law does not possess the language that we desperately need to accurately capture the totality of the Palestinian condition. From occupation to apartheid and genocide, the most commonly applied legal concepts rely on abstraction and analogy to reveal particular facets of subordination,” Eghbariah wrote –and offered the idea of “Nakba” as a legal concept to encompass that subordination.

But Eghbariah’s argument was censored, first by the Harvard Law Review, in “an unprecedented” move against a fully-edited essay, as the Intercept reported. Then, in an even more unprecedented fashion, by the Columbia Law Review this week, whose board of directors, which includes alumni with ties to the Biden administration, actually shut down the entire website when Eghbariah’s piece went up. (In the ensuing controversy, they have now restored the site).

In the eyes of the world, Palestinians only count when they are dying. That is what Qassam Muaddi wrote at our site this week, in an essay titled, “Against a world without Palestinians.”

Over the years, learning our Palestinian history, I began to notice that in order to be acknowledged by the rest of the world, we Palestinians always had to die…. It is as if in order to exist without justification, Palestinians had to intimately deal with death — they could master it, put up the best show of it, but they always had to die.

Qassam went on to explain that all that builds Palestinian character, including culture and stories, has no place in the world as it is. It must always be dismissed as terrorism or something less than human.

He actually ends that essay with hope, that the global discourse of Palestine is finally changing.

And the next day, another 274 Palestinians were killed, with full U.S. support. And Democrats wonder why democracy is in crisis.
