Just because we aren't seeing more posts about Palestine, doesn't mean the genocide has stopped. Let's keep Praying and speaking up for Gaza, Palestine.

Seeing footage of the aftermath of the flour massacre in Gaza is so painful

"Where is my daughter? Tell her I don't want flour anymore"

"My brother was shot holding a bag of flour. He kept holding on to it so they kept shooting him"

"Why does flour have to be stained with blood?"

Over 100 have been killed. Every single one of them hungry. Every single one of them has someone waiting for them to come back with the bag of flour.

Israel is using starvation as a weapon of war against innocent civilians. Israel ambushes starving Palestinians and shoots them. Israel is not fighting a war to defend itself. This is another episode of Israel's ongoing genocide in Gaza.

I’m really glad that Aaron’s self-immolation for Palestine is getting attention, but on November 8th there was also a Congolese man who did the same thing for the genocide happening in the DRC. From what I read in the article above, his fate and identity are unknown but I think his story should be getting equal amount of traction and I haven’t really seen anyone talking about it on Tumblr specifically yet.

I don't even have the adequate words to describe the fact that survivors of the Nakba are describing their devastation in Gaza as "worst than the Nakba"

If English is your first language, you do not know Arabic, but you want to understand the videos coming out of Gaza, there’s a really good Instagram account called ‘Translating__Gaza’:

The page do a word for word translation of what is being said, which is both important for people to engage with and understand, and aids documentation of the atrocities happening in Gaza. We highly recommend you stay in the know and witness what’s happening in Gaza with your own eyes, keep sharing and engaging with such content. It’s strictly important that the world sees this.

Give them a follow!

it actually hurt reading this update. civilians claim they found a minimum of 30 bodies near the hamad school in northern gaza, with both of their legs and hands tied, their eyes blindfolded. they were already in a state of decomposition. presumably they were tortured and killed, then dumped into a mass grave with no one the wiser. this is cannot be any more blatant of a war crime, but still no authority—be it the ICJ or otherwise—is truly stepping it to put an end to israel’s blatant genocide of palestinians. to top it off, if israeli officers do realize detainees, they do so in the most humiliating way possible. the same al jazeera article mentions that any palestinian detainees released were released in underwear. literally just underwear. no other clothes on. it’s insane how committed they are to ensuring that every act is an act of dehumanization. i am genuinely sick to the bone of anyone who has the gal to see all these atrocities and still have the nerve to say that this is not a genocide in live time.

Palestinians have generational trauma since the Nakba. And now it seems the trauma will continue for decades and decades to come.

The body keeps the score of what the world let happen to the Palestinians. You don't even need to see their faces to feel their nerves.

Humanity has failed a live genocide on our screens.

Over 100 journalists have been killed in Gaza since October 7th.

If you don’t recognize this child this is Lama Abu Jamous. She is 9 years old and she is an aspiring journalist in Gaza who works with her father, Ahmad Jamous, for Al Jazeera News reporting on The conditions in Gaza. They’re both in Rafah and under threat of airstrikes despite being a “safe area”

All Palestinians deserve safety, Lama deserves to grow up in her home. But Journalists specifically are known to get targeted. (Some of us may have even seen the instagram story where you can hear a bullet zipped right past Motaz’s head)

As a result Her father wants us to put pressure on Al Jazeera to get her out of Gaza and into egypt where she can be safe (as they have with other journalists. Their social media is active, and heres how you can send direct messages pushing his request further.

BRING MANSOUR HOME!

Dozens of women were arrested from their homes and refugee centers, taken to Yarmouk Stadium in Gaza, their hijabs were removed from their heads, blindfolded, and they were searched. Many of them were subjected to sexual harassment, beatings and abuse. [@/mhdksafa on X. 12/28/23.]

I won't forgive ANYONE who calls themselves a feminist -for remaining silent about this genocide -you ARE complicit. During any and all instances of institutionalized and systematic violence, oppression, and abuse being executed by all imperial and colonial forces around the world -for you to say nothing -shame on ALL of you for cherry picking your 'issues.'

It didn't start on October 7th

Yesterday, Palestinian and solidarity organizers disrupted a Biden campaign event 14 times during his speech on the protection of women's rights. These activists called out hypocrisy because Biden and his administration are actively causing a reproductive care catastrophe in Gaza.

50,000 pregnant women do not have access to healthcare in Gaza, and C-sections are being performed without anesthesia. Women and children in Gaza are being killed by U.S.-made and supplied bombs.

described by @winged-wolf-s-collection-of-arts

[ID: Transcription of what the protesters are saying, while security personnel try to get them out:

Israel kills two mothers every hour in Gaza. Ceasefire now! End the genocide! Ceasefire!

Women in Gaza are being murdered. Killing people in Gaza is a war crime. You are a war criminal.

Stop funding genocide! Ceasefire now!

50,000 pregnant women don't have healthcare. Their blood is on your hands. Ceasefire!

Ceasefire now! Stop funding genocide! Gaza is a reproductive issue.

Free, free Palestine!

Finally this makes it to mainstream media. Imagine the headlines if this were reversed. And the White House still can't think of any war crimes Israel has intentionally committed in Gaza.
