“My name is Aaron Bushnell. I am an active duty member of the United States Air Force and I will no longer be complicit in genocide. I am about to engage in an extreme act of protest, but compared to what people have been experiencing in Palestine at the hands of their colonizers, it’s not extreme at all. This is what our ruling class has decided will be normal. Free Palestine.”
—Aaron Bushnell
“The act of an American soldier sacrificing himself for Palestine is the highest sacrifice […] a poignant message to the American administration to stop its involvement in the aggression.”
One of my favorite things about the Palestinian resistance movement is the muisc that comes out of Gaza.
Everyone knows about Dammi Falastini. What you might not know is that the singer grew up in Gaza. Under israeli occupation. His skill should not be underestimated. He also sang for a lot of Palestinian resitant movements.
Speaking of Palestinian Resistance. Some of my favorite songs have come from them, mainly the PFLP (you can find a lot more of their songs here twitter.com/PalestineTunes and the specific song here https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b6iq4CyHuV4)
Reminder, these people were born into an open air prison. This skill should not be underestimated
Palestinian fighters from the Joint Operations Room, comprised of the armed wing of various factions in the Gaza Strip, including Islamists, socialists, nationalists and others.
"Following her abduction by the IOF from her home two weeks ago in #Ramallah, the zionist courts issued PFLP leader Khalida Jarrar an administrative detention order, without charge or trial.
Khalida, 60 years old, has been imprisoned at least four times on baseless charges, most recently in 2016 and 2021. She was freed in September of 2021 after two years of administrative detention without charge or trial. Just two months before her release, the zionist entity denied her a temporary release to attend the funeral of her 31-year-old daughter, activist Suha Jarrar. Additionally, Khalida lost her father while she was imprisoned in 2021.
Khalida, a lifelong activist, intellectual, and leader, has stood defiantly in support of the prisoners' struggle. She has held many civil society positions, elected as a deputy in the Legislative Council in 2006, where she was responsible for the prisoners' file. Before her abudction, she was working as a researcher on Palestinian female prisoners at Birzeit University."
"Oh my intractable wound
My homeland is not a suitcase
and I am not a traveler
I am the lover and the land is the beloved
Hail the people of Lebanon who remain steadfast in the south"
Mahmoud Darwish
Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine (PFLP)

The PFLP calls upon all individuals of conscience worldwide to stand in solidarity with the Palestinian struggle against hegemony and colonialism. Our battle serves as an inspiring example for all oppressed people on this planet. Our struggle embodies the determination to overcome all forms of oppression, dominance, and injustice.
The PFLP urges all liberation movements, political parties, unions, activists, and individuals worldwide with a sense of justice to exhaust every action against the Zionist state, its affiliates and supporters, to show tangible support for Palestine and the Palestinian people. We must be the voice for those who have been silenced, including every child who has been lost and every political prisoner who endures suffering behind bars. Our resistance is the only just course of action. We will not idly watch while our people are killed and tormented, and we will not remain passive in the face of ongoing ethnic cleansing. Our people have the inalienable right to live in safety and dignity.
