Shares please ❤️‍🩹 What does it mean that Palestinians have seen support for their literal survival stop overnight?

As if the famine has ended?
As if speeches in Egypt have restored the 90% of buildings destroyed in Gaza?

Trump Keeps Admitting That He Is Bought And Owned By The World’s Richest Israeli

I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again, the only thing I like about Donald Trump is his infantile tendency to say the quiet part out loud.

The concentration of wealth in the hands of a few isn't just bad for our economy. It's corrosive to our democracy.

When the wealthy and well-connected control our political system, regular people don't have a voice.

The result? The demagoguery and corruption we're seeing now.

She was taken hostage by Palestinians 55 years ago. Now she’s an anti-Zionist activist.

Catherine Hodes was taken hostage by the PFLP at age 13 while traveling from Israel to the U.S. The experience sparked a lifelong commitment to Palestinian liberation.

Living a moral life in an age of bullies requires collective action; it cannot be done alone. Each of us must organize and participate in a vast network of moral resistance. From this solidarity we will grow stronger. This is what our current moment requires.

„Everyone knows my story
The war is over, but I still live
in its ashes
Unemployed, without food,
without shelter, living in a tent,
struggling to survive
Please, don't let me fade away
after I survived
Donate. Don't let my children
go without food again.“
