I saw so many genuinely horrible things today throughout Gaza. What I saw, no human being should ever see once in their lives. But that it is happening DAILY, all day, and all night in Gaza is just too much.⁣
⁣
? I don’t care what anyone says, it is a catastrophic failure that we have not intervened in any meaningful way.⁣
⁣
I will never not be ashamed. For my entire life I have never been afraid to step up, to be THERE, to confront the monster, or to comfort the grieving. It’s all I know.⁣
⁣
So watching this genocide is breaking something inside of me. It’s not how I am wired. I don’t know how anyone could be wired differently. ⁣
⁣
We were not meant to such things happen to human beings and then NOT intervene.⁣
⁣
We were built TO INTERVENE. ⁣
⁣
It’s proof that you are a human. That you are alive. With a heart. ⁣
⁣
What we have all been asked, or better yet, lulled, into doing is just gross and horrific.⁣
⁣
We are all expected to not only know of these atrocities, but we are expected to see and hear them, AND DO NEXT TO NOTHING.⁣
⁣
I’m telling you, that’s not a natural human response.⁣
⁣
What broke me today was the extreme sadness and devastation that I saw and heard from parents whose children had just been obliterated. These parents had protected their kids for 10 months of non stop murder. Only for today to be their worst nightmare.⁣
⁣
I saw a Palestinian father, earnestly, very seriously, trying to wake up his son, who was very clearly dead. ⁣
⁣
I saw a woman with a bag of flesh that she was told was her probably her child. The level of despair on her face was beyond words. What was she thinking? What would you think?⁣
⁣
It’s all way too much. That’s an understatement. ⁣
⁣
It’s terrorism, 24/7. It’s like 9/11, but over and over and over and over and over again, and again, and again. Not to a country the size of the US, but to a country smaller THAN BROOKLYN, New York. Gaza has fewer people than BROOKLYN, but has experienced 14 9/11s. ⁣
⁣
What are we talking about here?⁣
⁣
And now it appears it’s all starting in the West Bank. A new genocide. ⁣
⁣
We will all regret the day we didn’t do so much more.

It’s not a remotely fair fight. It’s basically the United States and Israel and the UK and Germany against Palestinians, but one thing I know, you will not slaughter tens of thousands of Palestinians without suffering your own losses like this almost daily.

?? Martyr Izz El-Din Al-Qassam Brigades:
—
During a well-planned ambush in the southern area of Al-Zaytoun neighborhood in Gaza City, Al-Qassam fighters successfully detonated a pre-prepared minefield targeting a zionist armored force. Helicopters were then deployed to evacuate the dead and wounded.

Police dogs and assault... swedish police attacked student demonstrators at Leonus University demanding a boycott of academic cooperation with "Israel".

"I want my father, I want to bury him".. the plea of the child Maher Rawhi Al-Zurba to the Red Cross to recover his father's body near the University College of Applied Sciences in northern Gaza Strip.

I want to thank the beautiful people of ICPC in Paterson, NJ for showing up last night.

Loved meeting you all so much. What a beautiful community.

Paterson is one of my favorite places in the United States. Can’t wait to see you all again soon, inshallah.
