May God bless this dear, beautiful, sweet family. Bless this loving, caring father. Give this family continued strength, health, comfort, prosperity, security, peace and tranquility. Free Palestine 🇵🇸 Amen
Anyone who thinks we are living a normal life is mistaken. Our daily reality has become a struggle for survival, a challenge beyond words. We fall asleep to the sound of bombings and gunfire, and we wake up to the very same nightmare, as if fear never ends. While the world is focused on the World Cup, we are here praying every day simply to stay alive until the next morning. Please, don’t let Gaza’s voice fade away. Don’t stop talking about us, and don’t allow our suffering to be forgotten.

What the hell?!
Notice how there is always JUUUUSSST enough Democrats to protect MAGA from accountability?

About damned time.
For the first time in history, a massive wave of people across the US, Europe, and Australia are challenging decades of unconditional support for Israel. From the very base of Israeli settler colonialism, more people are demanding justice for Palestine, and that gives me hope.

These Dems have learned nothing. Zionist shills, AIPAC mouthpieces must go!
All 11 Democrats who couldn’t be bothered to show up to impeach war criminal Pete Hegseth have taken money from AIPAC or other pro-Israel PACs: Haley Stevens ~ $15.9M Nancy Pelosi ~$166K Laura Gillen ~$572K Marilyn Strickland ~$371K Steven Horsford ~$213K Julia Brownley ~$134K Brittany Pettersen ~$125K Lou Correa ~$80K Melanie Stansbury ~$60K Frederica Wilson ~$39K Jonathan Jackson ~$21K There are no excuses left to make. The Democrats couldn’t even show up to hold a war criminal accountable who bombed an elementary school and mass murdered children. A new party is required.

Israel killed them, humanitarian aid workers. Not Hamas.
Remembering Canadian vetran Jacob Flickinger, one of 7 aid workers targeted and killed by Israel in their marked World Central Kitchen van. In the weeks, months, and years since his murder, Canada has deepened military ties to his killers. Israel went on to kill almost 600 aid workers in Gaza and desecrate the graves of Canadian peacekeepers burried in Gaza. There has been no justice or accountability. -------------- "Despite Israel’s killing of Flickinger three months later, DND proceeded with a $43 million contract with Israeli arms company Rafael Advanced Defence Systems to purchase the same type of missile that Israeli forces likely used to kill the aid workers.  In July and August 2024, Canadian troops travelled to Israel for training in how to use the newly purchased weapons, which were acquired for Operation Reassurance, Canada’s NATO mission in Latvia."

The Israeli judiciary rejects the release of 14 doctors from Gaza, Physicians for Human Rights reports. The organization stated that the 14 doctors remain imprisoned in Israeli detention without trial, some for more than two years, at a time when Gaza’s health sector is facing a severe shortage of medical personnel.

While I would never support exclusion, Genocide is certainly where we must draw the line. #DismantleZionism #DismantleIsrael
🇩🇪 A 60-year-old German shop owner was given a six-month suspended prison sentence for putting up a sign on his window saying "No Jews allowed! Nothing personal, not antisemitism either. I just can't stand you" in Flensburg, Northern Germany. 🧵

Indeed
If you are an Israeli soldier please know that accountability for crimes is coming. Not today and not tomorrow. But it's coming.

Hypocrisy
Mitch McConnell voted 23 times to deny Americans sick leave. Then he took 92 days himself and got paid $45,000 for days he never showed up for. He's still being paid from his wheelchair. Nonverbal and he still gobbling up tax payer dollars. He voted six times against raising the minimum wage. Take a good look a the Republican party.

All cities in the United States and around the world should do the same.
On Tuesday, voters in Providence, Rhode Island overwhelmingly passed an ordinance requiring the city to divest from companies that enable genocide, apartheid, and human rights violations. "The ordinance is the Palestine solidarity movement’s first binding municipal divestment law passed through popular vote in the U.S. — and makes Providence the largest U.S. city to vote to divest from Israel." “Millions of dollars in Providence city funds are invested in companies facilitating and profiting from the Israeli genocide in Gaza, apartheid system in the occupied West Bank, and ongoing assault on Lebanon and Iran,” Jewish Voice for Peace-Rhode Island explained in a press release. “In addition, Providence has a 20-year history of investing millions in Israel Bonds, which function as direct, no-strings-attached loans to the Israeli government and military.” “It was regular people who said, ‘we are going to create this ordinance, we are going to get enough signatures to get this on the ballot, we are not waiting for our elected officials to do something, we are going to do that work ourselves to make it happen,’” - via @truthout

Israel MUST be dismantled.
The 6-year-old adorable boy, Abdul-Rahman Badwan, was playing with his friend when the Nazi IDF shot him in the head with many bullets, killing him from an israeli crane. The israeli bullets threw his little body 3 meters away.

Start calling them IOF/IGF terrorists. Israel Occupation/Genocide Forces.
Why can't we all just call the IDF terrorists?

Israel must be dismantled.
The Israeli army detained and tortured this Palestinian child after Israeli settlers attacked the village of Beita. The child said through tears, “They hit me in the back with a gun, and a settler stomped on my back.”
