PALESTINIAN KUFIYA RAFFLE!!

I am raffling off TWO authentic kufiya’s from Palestine!! I know they are almost always sold out and I was generously sent 2, so I figured I would try to raffle them off and help a Gazan family at the same time 🤍🇵🇸

HOW TO ENTER:

Donate the equivalent of €10 (or more) to Hani’s gofundme! This is a vetted gofundme (and a friend of my dear Elios @fallahifag 🤍) and Hani needs help getting his family out of Gaza.

Once you donate send me proof of your donation and I’ll enter your username into the raffle.

EVERY €10 DONATED COUNTS AS AN ENTRY (so if you donate €10 that is one entry, €20 is two entries, etc)

My possibly out-of-reach goal is to not choose a winner until Hani’s gofundme reaches at least €10,000. I will reevaluate if that goal isn’t being reached in a reasonable amount of time. I will use a random generator to choose two winners- you must be comfortable enough to give me a name/address to mail it to if you win. It’ll basically just be first come first serve for who gets which kufiya.

Please keep donating and FREE PALESTINE 🤍🇵🇸

Pilots started asking the battalion commander to come up with actual missions to fly, so we could feel justified with being there and have a chance to practice our trade. Assault pilots train . . . to develop the skills necessary to put troops on the objective in a very rapid and precise manner, and then they want to go do it for real to be validated. The problem was, when an assault battalion goes looking for actual work, it means actual troops were going to be delivered to actual targets and some shit was going to go down. . . The unit offered services to customers who weren’t requesting our help through the normal channels. When those offers made it to commanders of stagnant units who were also wishing for some action, we had a dangerous combination: a bunch of operators out there looking to pick a fight. . . and an extremely effective way to show up. Units naturally labeled these operations as whatever it took to get approval. . . . It doesn’t take much for there to suddenly be areas of ‘potential threat’ that ‘need to be searched,’ and pretty soon you have a pack of trigger-hopeful troops suiting up to go on a mission. Any unit commander could justify this action with the slightest indication of threat, and depending on how you read the intel, there is always some threat. . . It’s not unlike an overambitious police officer looking for trouble. You can shape probable cause out of just about anything.

If there are no walls there are no names. This is the morning, after the dispersion, and the work of the morning is methodology: how to use oneself, and on what. That is my profession. I am an archaeologist of morning.
