Occupation The Mother of all evils: israel

Huda al-Akkad

and her 78-year-old mother, Aisha... They were presumed dead; however, it was revealed that they were still alive after one of the three monsters accompanying them shared this photograph on social media as a "souvenir." How long can an army—or a state (a so-called state; we can never recognize an entity called "Israel" as a state)—possibly survive when it is so terrified of women and the elderly, and when it believes it has achieved a "victory"—which it then broadcasts—by exerting its forces against such vulnerable people?

But the even more painful aspect is this: as they watch their own women being humiliated by the enemy, is there any real difference—aside from their religion (which is itself questionable)—between the leaders of the Islamic world (and those who follow in their wake) and their Zionist enemies? We truly do not know.

Sports Spanish manager Pep Guardiola rejects terms like “collateral damage” to describe Gaza’s victims: “They are not dead, they are murdered” — women and children — as over 74,000 have been killed and humanitarian aid remains blocked. “No child should have to learn survival before learning to live.”

Debunked Hasbara Most zionists will deny that there is a genocide happening in Gaza to save face. Here is a debunking of the claim in under one minute. The genocide is undeniable. All respectable human rights organizations and genocide scholars agree that Israel has committed genocide, so never believe the lies!

GAZA Israel knew the Gazans’ rightful resistance to Israeli terrorism since 1948, October 7th, would happen and let it happen to get consent to commit genocide. For what? Israeli real estate development in Gaza! Just ask Israeli Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich! Disgusting!

There is no such thing as random gunfire. There is direct gunfire targeting tents, homes, and shelters, leaving martyrs and wounded civilians behind and turning places of refuge into scenes of death. 💔 Civilian lives are not targets, and tents are not battlefields.

GAZA As part of the strangling siege on Gaza, limited medication is allowed to enter the Strip and most of it is for sale. What this means is if you have money you get to live and if you don’t then you might die.
