"You're gonna forget about Palestine and Ukraine eventually."
I'm not gonna forget the mass slaughters Russia did in Ukraine.
I'm not gonna forget the children who died in Palestine and Ukraine.
I'm not gonna forget the doctors that were slaughtered in Palestine and Ukraine.
I'm not gonna forget the journalists who died trying to document the Palestinian genocide.
I'm not gonna forget the war crimes committed on Palestine and Ukraine.
I'm not gonna forget how people died trying to get aid in Palestine.
I'm not gonna forget the genocides.
I'm not gonna forget the people who refuse to acknowledge the genocides.
I'm not gonna forget the photos and videos.
I'm not gonna forget the Palestinian mother who wouldn't wash her hands because it was all she had left of her children.
I'm not gonna forget my Ukrainian mutuals who died, and how it left me shattered.
I'm not gonna forget my Palestinian friend who died because of Zionists and Islamophobia, and how it left me with Prolonged Grief Condition.
I'm not gonna forget the families that were torn apart.
I'm not gonna forget the children who were orphaned.
I'm not gonna forget the screams and cries.
I'm not gonna forget the friends who died.
I'm not gonna forget how America continues to support the Palestinian genocide.
I'm not gonna forget how certain people refuse to acknowledge Russia's genocide on Ukraine.
I'm not gonna forget the footage of the horrors Russia is doing to Ukraine.
I'm not gonna forget the footage of the horrors Israel is doing to Palestine.
You can claim that I will forget, but images of genocide are burned into a person's brain for the rest of their life. I will always remember.

One of many pieces of information rarely discussed that has stuck with me in studying the Holocaust in a literacy class is that people who survived the death camps often did not survive starvation. It is very difficult for a severely malnourished body to recover from starvation. A severely malnourished body will struggle to process food at all, and many people die in the process of “refeeding.” This is called refeeding syndrome for this reason. Reintroducing food can and often is fatal without careful, medical guidance.
Starvation is one of the most common and effective forms of genocide. What makes it effective is that past a certain point, even if aid has been delivered, it is not enough to save someone from death by starvation. What also makes it effective is that withholding food is viewed as a passive consequence of political turmoil rather than an intentional act of violence among a people. You will see more people die from starvation in genocides across history because it is an effective way to kill many people without the use of state resources.
The starvation of Gaza is intentional. The United States and Israel may gesture that they are delivering or allowing aid into Gaza, but in reality they are active participants in the starvation of Gaza by destroying medical infrastructure, limiting the amount of aid “allowed” in, and blocking aid trucks from entering. Throwing food into Gaza by airdrop at this point in the genocide will not be enough without medical infrastructure to refeed a severely malnourished population. Many will die anyways. Many have already.

platforming palestinian joy is just as important as sharing the suffering they're enduring during this genocide. despite continued displacement and bombardment, you cannot steal their joy and spirit. happy birthday to this sweet baby 🖤🇵🇸 may they grow up to see a free palestine
edit: @saffronlesbian made a video description for this post!!
[vd: a screen recording of a tweet from the 20th of April 2024 with 2.5 million views, from Ruhi @/ruhi_hi. the caption reads, "This video of this little Palestinian angel celebrating his bday in a refugee camp" followed by three emoji of a smiling face with teary eyes. the video clip is 11 seconds long and shows a one-year-old baby seated on the sandy ground, smiling hugely and clapping his hands while people sing to him from offscreen and a large cake is placed in front of him. stuck into the top of the cake is a decoration that reads "happy birthday" in english. the video has the tiktok handle @/ibrahim.jamal99 visible in it. /end vd.]

Confession of a grieving Palestinian, forever away from home.
(For the record, hopelessness does not mean giving up. When you feel like you can do so little, just do what you can. Donate. Protest. Scream the truth.)

i dont think there is a word yet that can describe how absolutely vile israel is. they killed thirsty children by targeting a water tank.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
how inhumane do you have to be to support this, to fund this, to excuse this, to ignore this and pretend as if it isn’t going on?
* news was originally shared by Ramy Abdul, chairman of Euromed Human Rights Monitor
it is also not the first time Israel has targeted water tanks . this is how some Palestinians in Gaza get water supplies since the IDF threatens to shoot them.

Israel telling it's citizens to edit wikipedia pages to "preserve the truth and sanctity of Israel" has got to be a new level of desperation.

(Note: I am not good at poems, this is my third-ish attempt of writing a poem. I also wrote this to be about the genocides that are going on.)
Where is humanity?
A white woman goes missing,
Humanity focuses on finding her.
Someone gets murdered,
Humanity focuses on that.
Yet when the bombs go off,
And children die,
And newborns die,
And human needs are cut off,
Humanity turns its back.
A mother doesn't wash the blood of her children off her hands,
"It's all I have left of them!" She cries,
And humanity turns its back.
War crimes happen,
People die,
Civilians die,
Humanity turns its back.
It ignores the cries of the killed,
It ignores the cries of those in need,
It ignores the genocides,
All because the oppressed aren't white,
All because the oppressed aren't Christian.
"Where is humanity?" Someone cries out.
"You aren't white, and you're not Christian, so we don't care," Humanity responds.

Being from Gaza, Palestine is so different.
I tell people I'm from Gaza and I get pity, I get the "oh... do you have family there?" and I have to act tough, I am tough, it runs in my veins. Being from Gaza is expecting that reaction, the sorrow, it's dealing with dumbass people everyday, it's getting the "can you go there?" question. (No i cant btw).
I am from Gaza, I feel emotions just like everyone else, I feel anger and hurt and longing for a place I cant visit, I feel love and comfort and right now I feel alone and like im yelling at the world to pay attention and NO ONE CARES.
I am from Gaza, my thoughts belong to Gaza, my heart, my skin color, the way I speak, the way I say words a bit differently than the rest of the Palestinians, the way I wish I was a filmmaker to share my culture with the world.
I am from Gaza, i am aware of how different my people are, i am aware that i grew up differently, I am aware I grew up looking at the news from my grandparents television with my aunt waiting for news about her family, I am aware that I have trauma in my veins, I am aware that my culture is taken over and that I can't really speak about it, I am aware that not everyone experiences your aunt screaming that her brother died and yelling "He's apart of my soul, my soul died"
I am from Gaza, I hurt, I feel, I love, I care and my heart, soul and mind all belong to my beautiful land and its people.
