this is unbearable. just a little while ago when the baby was born we were lamenting that refaat never got to meet his grandkid and now his grandkid, son in law, and daughter are dead too?! ايه القهر ده!
My grandmother Naifa al-Sawada was born in June 1932.
A beautiful girl with blue eyes, she was the only daughter to her parents. They were originally from Gaza but moved to nearby Bir al-Saba, where Naifa’s father Rizq worked as a merchant.
She did well at school and in 1947 obtained the necessary certificate from the British – then the rulers of Palestine – to attend university.
She did not do so, however. Her father was fearful about what could happen to her at a time when war in Palestine appeared imminent.
At a young age, she married my grandfather Salman al-Nawaty and went to live in Gaza.
Between 1947 and 1949, Zionist forces expelled approximately 800,000 Palestinians from their homes.
Among those directly affected by the Nakba – Arabic for catastrophe – were Naifa’s own parents, who fled their home in Bir al-Saba for Gaza.
Having witnessed the Nakba, Naifa encouraged her own children to defend Palestine.
Naifa gave birth to four girls and six boys.Like so many mothers in Gaza, she experienced great loss.
Her son Moataz went missing while traveling to Jerusalem in 1982. It is still not known what happened to him.
Another son Moheeb, a journalist, left Palestine for Norway in 2007. Three years later he traveled to Syria.
In January 2011, he went missing.
The Syrian authorities subsequently confirmed to the Norwegian diplomatic service that he was imprisoned. But he has not been allowed to contact his family.We do not know his current whereabouts or even if he is alive or dead.
My grandmother witnessed the first intifada from 1987 and 1993.
On the streets around her, youngsters with stones and slingshots rose up against armed Israeli soldiers in tanks and military jeeps.
During that time, her son Moheeb – the aforementioned journalist – was held for more than a year without charge or trial. That infamous practice is called administrative detention.
My grandmother lived close to al-Shifa, Gaza’s largest hospital.
She took great care of arranging everything in her home with her delicate hands. She used those same hands to comb her hair into braids.
She memorized the Quran and took great interest in the education of her children and grandchildren.
On 21 March this year, Israeli troops broke into my grandmother’s home.
The soldiers displayed immense brutality.
They ordered the women in our family to evacuate on foot and arrested the men. They would not allow the women to take my grandmother, who had Alzheimer’s disease, with them.
The soldiers claimed that my grandmother would be safe. That was a lie.
The invasion of my grandmother’s house took place amid Israel’s siege on al-Shifa hospital.
My grandmother’s house was destroyed during that siege and she was killed. Her remains were found days after the Israeli troops eventually withdrew from the hospital earlier this month.
She was killed – alone – in the same house where she had lived since 1955.
We do not know if she suffered or if she died quickly.
We do know that she was older than Israel’s merciless occupation.
Residents of North Gaza express their frustration with the manner in which aid is distributed in Gaza. Addressing the camera, they reject the food aid stating that all they need is an end to the genocide.
They recount the dangers they face trying to retrieve aid dropped in the sea and mention the absurdity and humiliation of dropping supplies into water when there are empty lands available, as well as land entry points available that are being blocked by Israel.
Their pointed critique extends to the United States, condemning the simultaneous sending of weapons and aid by planes, suggesting that the food drops are another weapon used against them.
just a reminder to COMPLETELY boycott Eurovision this year; Azerbaijan and Israel, despite committing genocide, are STILL allowed to compete & have NOT been banned. by refusing to ban both countries, Eurovision is profiting off of the genocide of Palestinians and Armenians.
do not listen to the artists. do not pirate or stream the artists' music, and this applies to ALL the artists who are competing and performing this year. do not listen to the songs on ANY platform, do not give them ANY attention.
write to your broadcasters and tell them you REFUSE to watch the channels until they recognise the Armenian and Palestinian genocides & that you find it disgusting how they are allowing Eurovision despite Azerbaijan and Israel's entries.
do NOT give eurovision OR the competing artists ANYTHING but silence.
The dehumanization of Palestinians goes BEYOND the things we usually see, such as racism and Islamophobia.
It’s also the tokenization, treating Palestinian bloggers as “inspiration” for an OC, the parasocial relationships people are starting to form with more well-known Palestinian bloggers, and NOW polls on who the “worst” Palestinian is. Even people who’re supposedly ally’s to the freedom for Palestine movement are voting because of quote on quote “curiosity”.
You don’t have to be outwardly racist to dehumanize someone. Dehumanization involves stripping a person of their humanity and turning them into whatever caricature you think fits them best, whether it’s to sell an agenda or treat them as a source of entertainment.
do people even know the extent of sanctions on the iranian people? my mom's family can't afford fruit anymore. it's a state of psychological warfare; literally nobody living there has any sort of hope for the future. added sanctions from the EU are going to destroy the lives of 87 million innocent people
